OID(3)                User Contributed Perl Documentation               OID(3)


NAME

       NetSNMP::OID - Perl extension for manipulating OIDs


SYNOPSIS

         use NetSNMP::OID;

         my $oid = new NetSNMP::OID('sysContact.0');

         if ($oid < new NetSNMP::OID('ifTable')) {
             do_something();
         }

         my @numarray = $oid->to_array();

         # appending oids
         $oid = new NetSNMP::OID('.1.3');
         $oid += ".6.1";
         # -> .1.3.6.1

         # appending index strings

         $oid2 = $oid + "\"wes\"";
         # -> .1.3.6.1.3.119.101.115

         $oid3 = $oid + "\'wes\'";
         # -> .1.3.6.1.119.101.115

         $len = $oid3->length();
         # -> 7

         # retrieving indexes from an oid:
         $arrayref = $tableoid->get_indexes()


DESCRIPTION

       The NetSNMP::OID module is a simple wrapper around a C-based net-snmp
       oid (which is an array of unsigned integers).  The OID is internally
       stored as a C array of integers for speed purposes when doing
       comparisons, etc.

       The standard logical expression operators (<, >, ==, ...) are
       overloaded such that lexographical comparisons may be done with them.

       The + operator is overloaded to allow you to append stuff on to the end
       of a OID, like index segments of a table, for example.

   EXPORT
       int snmp_oid_compare(oid1, oid2) int compare(oid1, oid2)
