Re: [lisp-snmp] Patch to asn.1 to change from parsergen to a modified cl-yacc

[Chun T. (binghe) <bin...@gm...>]

Hi, John

To respect your wishes and still keep the implementation of OID  
function simple, I has changed the behavior (short-package-name) into  
a compile-time option.

If you update both ASN.1 and SNMP package to newest SVN trunk, you'll  
find file "features.lisp-expr" in both packages. There's
one option in #p"ASN1:features.lisp-expr":

  ;;; Short package name of MIB packages, disable for expert only.
  short-package-name

If you disable it (either prefix a #+ignre or comment it), and  
recompile the compiler part of ASN.1 packages, next time when you  
compile MIB files or just use (snmp:update-mib) to regenerate all  
MIBs, the new generated files will NOT have short nicknames at all.

As before I don't think it's necessary to disable the short package  
names since it's quite convenient. But if you really don't like it, I  
hope you would like above solution.

Regards,

Chun Tian (binghe)
