gsnmpgo

Update 8/Mar/13

Work on gsnmpgo has halted. Making the gsnmp C library multithreaded was proving too time consuming. Use http://github.com/soniah/gosnmp instead.

Update 4/Dec/13

Geert-Johan Riemer commented:

I saw your notice on gsnmpgo "Threading: either gsnmp isn't totally thread safe, or I'm making errors with my C calls from Go (more likely). I'm getting aborts with this message:"

I think this might be solved by locking the requesting goroutine to it's thread using runtime.LockOSThread (http://golang.org/pkg/runtime/#LockOSThread). And make sure requests are always made from that specific goroutine.

(I currently don't have time to work on gsnmpgo, but I thought I'd add this comment for future reference. Sonia.)

About

gsnmpgo is an snmp library for Go; it uses Go/CGo to wrap gsnmp.

gsnmpgo is pre 1.0, therefore API's may change, and tests are minimal.
