Re: [nv-l] Libraries to run sample C++ code

[James Shanks <jshanks@us.ibm.com>]

Don't run it from Visual C++, run it
from the command line.  The libraries you mention are now part of
dlls you should find automatically if you can run any other NetView executable
from the command line.  Besides you need to specify a value when you
run the thing.  It is a command-line utility not a GUI app.

Did you load the name_to_oid.dsp file?
 I did and everything compiles just fine using Visual Studio 5.0,
for which this all was written.
On my system, after I loaded the project,
I compiled name_oid.c and got two warnings about externs. Then I built
the executable, opened a command window to  \usr\ov\prg_samples\nvsnmp_app
 and entered

        name_oid.exe
 .1.3.6.1.4.1
it returned
        ObjectID
: .1.3.6.1.4.1
        Mnemonic
: .iso.org.dod.internet.private.enterprises

which is what I expect.

As for other examples, since I don't
work in that area, I cannot answer for why some are not present or whether
those are not should be. 
The programming samples were all originally
written on UNIX and not all of them are supported on Windows.

Subject	[nv-l] Libraries to run sample C++ code

Hi, I am trying to run the sample program

usr\ov\prg_samples\nvsnmp_app\name_to_oid

However when I try to run it from my visual C++, I have an error
because it can not find the library libovc.lib. In 

usr/ov/lib

libovc.lib and libovcmapi.lib are missing.

What I want to do is to poll the Forwarding tables of my switches, 
thereis a source code on the NVProgramers guide that does what I want,
but I am having trouble with something much easier.  By the way the
I 
do not have the getTable.c that was supposed to be with the 
name_to_oid.c

Thanks
