NAME
       table -

       Helps you implement a table.

   Modules
       table_array

       Helps you implement a table when data can be stored locally.
   table_container

       Helps you implement a table when data can be found via a
       netsnmp_container.
   table_data

       Helps you implement a table with datamatted storage.
   generic_table_API

       General requirements for a table helper.
   table_iterator

       The table iterator helper is designed to simplify the task of writing a
       table handler for the net-snmp agent when the data being accessed is
       not in an oid sorted form and must be accessed externally.
   table_row

       Helps you implement a table shared across two or more subagents, or
       otherwise split into individual row slices.
   tdata

       Implement a table with datamatted storage.

Detailed Description
       Helps you implement a table.

       This handler helps you implement a table by doing some of the
       processing for you.

       This handler truly shows the power of the new handler mechanism. By
       creating a table handler and injecting it into your calling chain, or
       by using the netsnmp_register_table() function to register your table,
       you get access to some pre-parsed information. Specifically, the table
       handler pulls out the column number and indexes from the request oid so
       that you don't have to do the complex work to do that parsing within
       your own code.

       To do this, the table handler needs to know up front how your table is
       structured. To inform it about this, you fill in a
       table_registeration_info structure that is passed to the table handler.
       It contains the asn index types for the table as well as the minimum
       and maximum column that should be used.

Function Documentation
   int netsnmp_check_getnext_reply (netsnmp_request_info * request, oid *
       prefix, size_t prefix_len, netsnmp_variable_list * newvar,
       netsnmp_variable_list ** outvar)
       checks the original request against the current data being passed in if
       its greater than the request oid but less than the current valid
       return, set the current valid return to the new value. returns 1 if
       outvar was replaced with the oid from newvar (success). returns 0 if
       not.

   NETSNMP_INLINE netsnmp_table_request_info* netsnmp_extract_table_info
       (netsnmp_request_info * request)
       Extracts the processed table information from a given request. Call
       this from subhandlers on a request to extract the processed
       netsnmp_request_info information. The resulting information includes
       the index values and the column number.

       Parameters:
	   request populated netsnmp request structure

       Returns:
	   populated netsnmp_table_request_info structure

       Definition at line 143 of file table.c.

   netsnmp_table_registration_info* netsnmp_find_table_registration_info
       (netsnmp_handler_registration * reginfo)
       extracts the registered netsnmp_table_registration_info object from a
       netsnmp_handler_registration object

       Definition at line 152 of file table.c.

   netsnmp_mib_handler* netsnmp_get_table_handler
       (netsnmp_table_registration_info * tabreq)
       Given a netsnmp_table_registration_info object, creates a table
       handler. You can use this table handler by injecting it into a calling
       chain. When the handler gets called, it'll do processing and store it's
       information into the request->parent_data structure.

       The table helper handler pulls out the column number and indexes from
       the request oid so that you don't have to do the complex work of
       parsing within your own code.

       Parameters:
	   tabreq is a pointer to a netsnmp_table_registration_info struct.
	   The table handler needs to know up front how your table is
	   structured. A netsnmp_table_registeration_info structure that is
	   passed to the table handler should contain the asn index types for
	   the table as well as the minimum and maximum column that should be
	   used.

       Returns:
	   Returns a pointer to a netsnmp_mib_handler struct which contains
	   the handler's name and the access method

   int netsnmp_register_table (netsnmp_handler_registration * reginfo,
       netsnmp_table_registration_info * tabreq)
       creates a table handler given the netsnmp_table_registration_info
       object, inserts it into the request chain and then calls
       netsnmp_register_handler() to register the table into the agent.

   netsnmp_mib_handler* netsnmp_sparse_table_handler_get (void)
       create sparse table handler

   int netsnmp_sparse_table_register (netsnmp_handler_registration * reginfo,
       netsnmp_table_registration_info * tabreq)
       creates a table handler given the netsnmp_table_registration_info
       object, inserts it into the request chain and then calls
       netsnmp_register_handler() to register the table into the agent.

       handler1 is in reginfo... remove and free??

       both handlers now in reginfo, so nothing to do on error

   int netsnmp_table_build_oid (netsnmp_handler_registration * reginfo,
       netsnmp_request_info * reqinfo, netsnmp_table_request_info *
       table_info)
       given a registration info object, a request object and the table info
       object it builds the request->requestvb->name oid from the index values
       and column information found in the table_info object. Index values are
       extracted from the table_info varbinds.

   int netsnmp_table_build_oid_from_index (netsnmp_handler_registration *
       reginfo, netsnmp_request_info * reqinfo, netsnmp_table_request_info *
       table_info)
       given a registration info object, a request object and the table info
       object it builds the request->requestvb->name oid from the index values
       and column information found in the table_info object. Index values are
       extracted from the table_info index oid.

   int netsnmp_table_build_result (netsnmp_handler_registration * reginfo,
       netsnmp_request_info * reqinfo, netsnmp_table_request_info *
       table_info, u_char type, u_char * result, size_t result_len)
       Builds the result to be returned to the agent given the table
       information. Use this function to return results from lowel level
       handlers to the agent. It takes care of building the proper resulting
       oid (containing proper indexing) and inserts the result value into the
       returning varbind.

   int netsnmp_update_indexes_from_variable_list (netsnmp_table_request_info *
       tri)

       XXX-rks: memory leak. add cleanup handler?

       none available

       got one ok

       for loop
