Re: Subagentx : how to define the path where MIBS are installed

I do this at the beginning of the process.

my code is like this:

MonitoringStatus
initSnmp()
{
	// Sub-agentX
    netsnmp_ds_set_boolean(NETSNMP_DS_APPLICATION_ID, NETSNMP_DS_AGENT_ROLE, 
1);
    netsnmp_ds_toggle_boolean(NETSNMP_DS_APPLICATION_ID, 
NETSNMP_DS_AGENT_NO_ROOT_ACCESS);

	ConfigParameters& param = configMonitoring_.getConfigParam();
	// Set the Socket used to communicate with the master agent
	netsnmp_ds_set_string(NETSNMP_DS_APPLICATION_ID, NETSNMP_DS_AGENT_X_SOCKET, 
param.agentXSocket.c_str());
	// Set the Community
	netsnmp_ds_set_string(NETSNMP_DS_APPLICATION_ID, NETSNMP_DS_LIB_COMMUNITY, 
param.community.c_str());
	// Don't persist
	netsnmp_ds_set_boolean(NETSNMP_DS_LIBRARY_ID, 
NETSNMP_DS_LIB_DONT_PERSIST_STATE, 1);
	netsnmp_ds_set_string(NETSNMP_DS_APPLICATION_ID, NETSNMP_DS_LIB_MIBDIRS, 
param.pathMIB.c_str());

	SOCK_STARTUP;

	MonitoringStatus ret;

	// initialize the agent library
	if ( init_agent( appName_.c_str() ) != 0 )
	{
		return InitAgentFailure;
	}

	init_snmp( appName_.c_str() );
                ...
}

=> So I do this before init_agent and init_snmp (which seems to be 
responsible to parse all the mibs)
