[SNMP4J] How could I run an agent that sends only traps?

[Fedja Jeleskovic]

Well, what I am trying to do is to add TCP trap support for my Agent++ code. 
My original agent will basically send a message to the halved Snmp4j agent 
with TCP support and that one will only send those TCP traps to the 
specified destination(s).

How could I use it without the SNMP4J-Agent?

Thanks
