RE: Return type

Hi!
Thank You for giving reply. I understood it, but my question is
when I execute snmpset command example "snmpset -v2c -c private
sysName.0 s "net-snmp" ", how var_system function will know that it is
set request for the variable sysName, off course using vp->magic it goes
to the case SYSTEMNAME but how it will know it is a set request and how
it will execute the *write_method = writeSystem; if it is get request
then writeSystem function won't be called How this is can be happened.
Hope understood my question. If any body knows how set operation takes
place please explain me.

With Regards,
G. Siva Prakash Reddy.

Integer - it's the SNMP error code for processing that SET request
(typically SNMP_ERR_NOERROR or SNMP_ERR_{something})

See the routine 'writeSystem' in the file 'mibgroup/mibII/system_mib.c'
for examples.
