[SOLVED] error message when attempting to send a trap: send_trap: no v2 trapOID varbind provided

Took me a while to figure this out, so I figured I'd send it to the list
for future mailing list search results.  Maybe this will help someone else
running into the same issue.

I have an app that calls functions generated by "mib2c -c mib2c.notify.conf
myTestMib".  Those functions should be triggering trap notifications, but
instead I was getting this error message:

send_trap: no v2 trapOID varbind provided

Turns out there is 1 additional API that needs to be called which isn't in
the generated code.  Prior to calling the trap functions, you must remember
to call init_traps().  See:  #include <net-snmp/agent/agent_trap.h>

(In my case, this is using net-snmp 5.4.2.1 on Ubuntu 10.04.)
