Questions regarding current API

I just went through my once-every few months task of downloading the 
current snmp++ and agent++, and see that a lot of the API that I use has 
now changed.

For example (just one of several), I used to call mpGetLocalEngineID() to 
get the engine ID, but that function no longer exists. 

Is there anywhere where the new API is reasonably well documented? Apart 
from a single comment referring to an improved v3MP class, there doesn't 
seem to be anything in the CHANGES document about v3MP. In trying to find a 
replacement to mpGetLocalEngineID() I have tried a few things that seemed 
obvious to me, but none of them worked.

I see that all the consoleExamples now create a v3MP object (this seems to 
be required, whereas before there was no such class). Sinced obviously no 
one else had much trouble moving to the new API -- I didn't see any 
discussions here -- could someone perhaps please enlighten me as to how, 
conceptually, a v3MP fits into the scheme of things?
