Although MIB group structures are provided for your use, you are not required to
use them. You can use the structure that works best with your method routines.
5. Method Routine Prototypes Section
The fifth section of the subtree_TBL.H file describes the method routine
prototypes. Each MIB group within the subtree has a method routine prototype
defined. A MIB group is a collection of MIB variables that are leaf nodes and that
share a common parent node.
There is always a function prototype for the method routine that handles the

there is also a function prototype for the method routine that handles
operations. Pointers to these routines appear in the subtree's object table which
is initialized in the subtree_TBL.C module. You must write method routines for
each prototype that is defined, as follows:
extern int mib-group get( METHOD *method );
extern int mib-group set( METHOD *method );
For example:
extern int chess_get( METHOD *method );
extern int chess_set( METHOD *method );

3.3.2.4 The subtree_TBL.C Output Files

The subtree_TBL.C file file contains the following sections:
1. An array of integers representing the OIDs for each MIB variable
2. An array of OBJECT structures
3. An initialized SUBTREE structure
4. Routines for allocating and freeing the
The following sections describe each section of the subtree_TBL.C file.
1. Array of Integers Section
The first section of the subtree_TBL.C file is an array of integers used to represent
the OID of each MIB variable in the subtree. For example:
static unsigned int elems[] = {
1, 3, 6, 1, 4, 1, 36, 2, 15, 2, 99,
1, 3, 6, 1, 4, 1, 36, 2, 15, 2, 99, 1, 0, /* chessProductID */
. . .
1, 3, 6, 1, 4, 1, 36, 2, 15, 2, 99, 5, 1, 4, 0, /* moveStatus */
};
The first line represents the root of the tree; the other lines represent specific
variables. The latter groups are all terminated by a zero, a programming
convenience in internal implementations of API routines.
