[SNMP4J] Textual Oid using the name instead of number

[Frank Fock]

Martin,

Runtime mapping from OID to object name and vice versa
is only needed for generic applications.
Best choice for the rest, is compile time mapping,
like done by AgenPro.

For runtime MIB parsing and processing, you may use
JASMI (http://www.mibdesigner.com) or some other
API. Note: JASMI 3.0 will be until September 13th.

Best regards,
Frank
