4   MIB Repository

A MIB repository is a directory that AgenPro exclusively uses to store compiled MIB modules in an internal format. Before a MIB module can be loaded into AgenPro's MIB tree and then used by subsequent code generation operations, it has to be compiled and stored into a MIB repository.

To Create a MIB Repository:

1.   From the file menu choose Set MIB Repository. A File Open menu dialog box will appear.

2.   Navigate through the file system to the directory where you want to create the MIB Repository.

3.   Within that directory, create a new folder by clicking on the Create New Folder (AgenProManual00002.jpg) button. The new folder can be renamed by double-clicking it.

Note: Do not double-click the new folder! Otherwise you cannot select the folder itself.

4.   Choose the new (or any other empty folder) by selecting it. Click Open.

As long as a MIB Repository directory is used by AgenPro, it must not be altered outside AgenPro. Once a valid MIB Repository has been set, you may compile MIB files to store them in the repository.

To Select a MIB Repository:

1.   From the file menu choose Set MIB Repository. A File Open menu dialog box will appear.

Note: Do not double-click the new folder! Otherwise you cannot select the folder itself.

2.   Navigate through the file system and select the MIB Repository direc­tory you want to use.

3.   Click Open.

The MIB repository will be verified. If any inconsistent or corrupted MIB modules are found, a dialog will be displayed with instructions to repair the repository.
