[AGENT++] Oid::RnCompare()

[Karl Abicht]

Hi,

is it possible that this method works correct in the case that both OID have
the same length ?


int Oid::RnCompare(const unsigned long n, const Oid &o) const
{
  unsigned long nz = n;

  // If both oids are too short, decrease nz
  while ((len() < nz) && (o.len() < nz))
    nz--;

  // oid to compare must have at least the same number of sub-ids to
  // comparison else the argument Oid is less than THIS
  if (o.len() < nz)    return -1;

  // also can't compare argument oid for sub-ids which THIS does not have
  if (len() < nz) return -1;

  int start = (int) (len() -1);
  int end = (int) start - (int) nz;
  for (int z = start; z > end; z--)
  {
    if (smival.value.oid.ptr[z] < o.smival.value.oid.ptr[z])   return -1;
    if (smival.value.oid.ptr[z] > o.smival.value.oid.ptr[z])   return 1;
  }
  return 0;   // they are equal


Thanks,

Karl
