NAME

       table - Helps you implement a table.



   Modules
       table_array
           Helps you implement a table when data can be stored locally.


       table_container
           Helps you implement a table when data can be found via a
           netsnmp_container.


       table_data

       table_iterator
           The table iterator helper is designed to simplify the task of
           writing a table handler for the net-snmp agent when the data being
           accessed is not in an oid sorted form and must be accessed
           externally.


       table_row
           Helps you implement a table shared across two or more subagents, or
           otherwise split into individual row slices.


       tdata
           Implement a table with datamatted storage.

Detailed Description

       Helps you implement a table.

       This handler helps you implement a table by doing some of the
       processing for you.

       This handler truly shows the power of the new handler mechanism. By
       creating a table handler and injecting it into your calling chain, or
       by using the netsnmp_register_table() function to register your table,
       you get access to some pre-parsed information. Specifically, the table
       handler pulls out the column number and indexes from the request oid so
       that you don't have to do the complex work to do that parsing within
       your own code.

       To do this, the table handler needs to know up front how your table is
       structured. To inform it about this, you fill in a
       table_registeration_info structure that is passed to the table handler.
       It contains the asn index types for the table as well as the minimum
       and maximum column that should be used.


Function Documentation

   int netsnmp_check_getnext_reply (netsnmp_request_info * request, oid *
       prefix, size_t prefix_len, netsnmp_variable_list * newvar,
       netsnmp_variable_list ** outvar)
       checks the original request against the current data being passed in if
       its greater than the request oid but less than the current valid
       return, set the current valid return to the new value.

       returns 1 if outvar was replaced with the oid from newvar (success).
       returns 0 if not.

   NETSNMP_INLINE netsnmp_table_request_info* netsnmp_extract_table_info
       (netsnmp_request_info * request)
       Extracts the processed table information from a given request.

       Call this from subhandlers on a request to extract the processed
       netsnmp_request_info information. The resulting information includes
       the index values and the column number.

       Parameters:
           request populated netsnmp request structure

       Returns:
           populated netsnmp_table_request_info structure

   netsnmp_mib_handler* netsnmp_get_table_handler
       (netsnmp_table_registration_info * tabreq)
       Given a netsnmp_table_registration_info object, creates a table
       handler.

       You can use this table handler by injecting it into a calling chain.
       When the handler gets called, it'll do processing and store it's
       information into the request->parent_data structure.

       The table helper handler pulls out the column number and indexes from
       the request oid so that you don't have to do the complex work of
       parsing within your own code.

       Parameters:
           tabreq is a pointer to a netsnmp_table_registration_info struct.
           The table handler needs to know up front how your table is
           structured. A netsnmp_table_registeration_info structure that is
           passed to the table handler should contain the asn index types for
           the table as well as the minimum and maximum column that should be
           used.

       Returns:
           Returns a pointer to a netsnmp_mib_handler struct which contains
           the handler's name and the access method
