[SNMP4J] aync send thread?

[Scott MacKay]

Cool, good to know.  With that in mind, I wanted to
check on a particular setup.  It does not say it
cannot be done in the javadoc, just wanted
verification.

i have a class with variables for a PDU, a Target, and
implementation of ReponseListener, along with a
variable to store an OID value,

I have an array of this class, each set up with its
own PDU and target.
In a loop, I want to async send the requests.  They
all are v2 and I have 1 Snmp object in the thread
which will handle the dispatching.

Can I loop thru and send each class's PDU, target, and
object as the ResponseListener with a single Snmp
object?

I recall in a previous email something about needing
to clone involving request id.  If I loop on the sends
every 30 seconds, allowing a timeout of 3 seconds, is
resetting/cloning of the requestid required?  Each
time thru the loop, can I just reset the id to 0?

Thanks in advance!
