[AGENT++] Using a static requestList (STATIC_REQUEST_LIST) in the Mib class

[Maurice Plunkett]

Hi Frank,

 

In order to use the MibProxy class is appears that it is necessary to #define
STATIC_REQUEST_LIST in agent++.h (as mib_proxy.cpp attempts to use the static
requestList of Mib).

 

What is the reason to have the choice of using a static or a non-static
requestList for the Mib class?  As there is only once instance of Mib, it
seems that using a static requestList is all that would be needed, and it
seems that this is the only way that a MibProxy instance could indicate that
a request is done or that there was an error.

 

Do you have any comments on this or on any side effects of defining
STATIC_REQUEST_LIST in agent++.h (it is not defined by default).

 

Thanks for you help and support,

            Maurice.
