Revision history for Perl extension POE::Component::SNMP.
0.01 Mon Apr 21 13:28:31 2003
- original version; created by h2xs 1.22 with options
-AX -n POE::Component::SNMP
0.90 Mon Jun 7 18:44:00 2004
- Module inherited by Rob Bloodgood, from the previous
mainainer, Todd Caine.
- added POE::Component::SNMP::Dispatcher module, to subclass
Net::SNMP::Dispatcher such that all socket and scheduling
operations were processed by POE's event loop.
- updated the callback variables so that the hostname and
session alias of the SNMP object queried are returned to the
callback event.
- made write tests optional during install, so that the module
would install correctly even where a writeable host was
unavailable.
0.92 Mon Sep 6 13:19:53 2004
- Updated to be compatible with new Net::SNMP release 5.0.0
0.93 Thu Aug 11 11:57:29 2005
- Updated POE session constructor from the deprecated new() to
the new create() method.
- Removed a bunch of commented, deprecated code that was still
a holdover from the 0.01
0.94 Thu Mar 30 14:43:19 2006
- Reorganized the module distribution to use a lib/ dir, cuz
MakeMaker was being dumb.
- Updated Makefile.PL to remove the config file on 'make
realclean'
- Tweaked the docs.
- Altered the sample script in the SYNOPSIS to actually work.
- Removed remaining commented references to deprecated code.
- Followed a suggestion from Curtis J. Coleman to re-order
component shutdown so that finish() worked correctly.
- Lots of minor cleanups in the text
- At LAST: removed the duplicate methods to account for the
difference between Net::SNMP 4.x and 5.x. Now this is
achieved by aliasing the functions that need to be
duplicated in the symbol table.
0.95 Sat Apr 8 14:46:54 PDT 2006
- Collapsed all the identical method calls into a dispatch
mechanism around a single method call template.
- VASTLY improved error handling.
- Added the snmp method (eg get, set, walk) and request args
to the request packet returned to callbacks.
- Reorganized Dispatcher.pm, trimmed old commented
code. Removed unneeded debugging statements.
- trimmed unnecessary parameters from calls to
__invoke_callback().
- added new tests for various aspects of error handling.
0.96 Mon Apr 10 01:29:40 PDT 2006
- re-ordered the hostname and community checks so that the
fatal "hostname is required" is thrown BEFORE the warning
"using default community".
- added new tests for error conditions and parameter errors
- changed the return values to always return something sane,
e.g. a string or a ref, not a string or a ref or maybe an
undef, THEN a string! The only reason I didn't change this
before is that I mistakenly thought this weird error
structure came directly from Net::SNMP, but it turns out I
just inherited it. <sigh>
- for compatibility, continue to return the $snmp_object->error
value in the second slot, since the last change alters the API.
- Also, changed the original args returned to callbacks from
being a listref to a simple list, in the same way they
came in.
- Unified style in docs. Cleaned up internal and external POD
links.
