AW: [AGENT++] Thread handle leak (SNMP++ 3.2.21a)

[Jochen Katz]

Hi,

yes, but until I saw your patch for agent++, I just fixed the "not
closed handle" problem. If your patch for agent++ is necessary, snmp++
has to be changed accordingly.

As I don't have much experience with threads on windows (I prefer to use
wrappers like QThread from Qt) I will wait for other comments and if
there are no objections against your patch, it will be included for the
next release.

For anyone who wants to look and (even better) try it on WIN32 platform:
