[AGENT++] snmp++ 3.2.16 Compilation problem on Tru64

[GOELLESCH Niels]

I am using Tru64 4.0f and had troubles when more than 5 varbinds are added to pdu during a get request. The request Pdu is transmitted on the network, but as soon as the reply arrives, an ASN1 decoding error occurs. 

 

The problem can be found in asn1.cpp line 555.

 

A conditional compilation is done where a check is made whether the symbol "alpha" is defined. This symbol is by default defined on a Tru64 system; There are three solutions:

 

1)       replace "alpha" by "__osf__"  (this is the solution that I have choosen, because symbol is always defined on Tru64))

2)       replace "alpha" by "__alpha"  (whether the symbol is defined depends on compiler settings)

3)       add a -Dalpha in the Makefile.dunix

 

Hope this info is useful for anyone else.

 

Kind regards,

      Niels
