Help building manager

Hello,

I'm trying to build a manager around Net-SNMP which
uses both snmpd and snmptrapd demons. I have agents
distributed in some copmuters monitoring some events.
When it is necesary they generate a trap that needs to
be reveived by this manager. Basically I'm building a
manager to receive traps and to hava an MIB for
himself. I need to build this manager using Java, but
I would need that the snmptrapd demon forwards the
traps to this manager that would be expecting these
traps. I was thinking in embeding the trapreceiver in
the manager and to forward the traps to it (using
JNI). The problem is that I don't know how to acheive
this. I have read the FAQs and documentation and found
nothing usefull. I tried to use the forward option in
the snmptrapd.conf file, and it forwards the traps but
I can't seem to print the traps. The problem in doing
this is that it would need the manager to decrypt and
authenticate traps. since I use authPriv traps.

I have looked through the anmptrapd code but I'm a
little confused and I don't know what functions are
usefull and basic for building a snmptrapd demon. Can
you point me out how to do this?

Is there a way to acces the traps within the snmptrapd
code? Where can I see and manipulate the data in the
traps in the snmptrapd demon?

Are traps sent as a flow of characters?

Basically I need to send the traps to the manager so
that it can use them to graph some data and do some
calculations. Any guidance would be very appreciated.

Thanks a lot for your collaboration.
