SNMP4J-SMI-PRO CHANGES
======================

[2026-06-24] Version 2.0.0 (Requires SNMP4J 3.12.2 or later)

* Removed: Dependency on the JGL (Generic Collection Library). Java standard collection types are used
  throughout in place of JGL collection classes. This reduces the size of the library and
  improves the performance of SmiManager.findSmiObject(OID) by ~30%.
* Added: New package com.snmp4j.smi.ber with SnmpMessageTree, BERNode, and BERNodeError for parsing
  raw SNMP messages into a navigable BER decode tree. Supports SNMPv1, SNMPv2c, and SNMPv3 including
  AUTH_PRIV ScopedPDU decryption via DirectUserTarget credentials. The tree can be rendered as an
  indented text tree (SnmpMessageTree.formatAsText()) or as a JSON object tree
  (SnmpMessageTree.formatAsJson()). BERNodeError nodes record parse deviations with position, offending
  bytes, and expected tags. A Draft 2020-12 JSON Schema for the BER node JSON format is provided as a
  classpath resource (com.snmp4j.smi.ber/BERNodeJsonSchema.json).
* Added: SmiObjectJsonConverter and SmiObjectJsonMatcher in new package com.snmp4j.smi.util.json for
  converting MIB object instance data to JSON and matching JSON values against MIB object types.
  A Draft 2020-12 JSON Schema (SmiObjectJsonSchema.json) describes the supported JSON representation.
* Added: SmiSyntaxElement.getComment() to retrieve the comment associated with an SMI syntax element.
* Improved: PolymorphicColumnType now supports polymorphic formatting of column values based on the
  actual type of the variable binding. The default ploymorphic formatters are:
  SNMP-TARGET-MIB|NOTIFICATION-LOG-MIB:TAddress, AGENTX-MIB:AgentXTAddress, IP-MIB:InetAddressType,
  TCP-MIB:InetAddressType, UDP-MIB:InetAddressType, IP-FORWARD-MIB:InetAddressType.
* Improved: SmiManager.loadModules() now properly closes all I/O resources after loading, preventing
  resource leaks when module files are deleted or inaccessible during load operations.
* Changed: Default DISPLAY-HINT is no longer OctetStringDefaultFormat.ASCII, instead it is set to
  OctetStringDefaultFormat.MIB.

[2025-05-17] Version 1.12.3 (Requires SNMP4J 3.9.4 or later)

* Fixed: NullPointerException in SMI parser when compiling MIB modules with syntax errors that prevent
  specific localizing Token positions for VARIATION constructs (very rare).
* Fixed: UTC date and time comment generated with Java 24 for MIB export (PDF, HTML, etc.) or later contains
  non-ASCII character.

[2025-05-16] Version 1.12.2 (Requires SNMP4J 3.9.4 or later)

* Updated: SNMP4J dependency to 3.9.4.
* Improved: SmiManager.setIndexClauseCachingEnabled now allows disabling INDEX clause reference caching which
  is now enabled by default to speed up INDEX OID conversions to Variables.

[2025-04-06] Version 1.12.1 (Requires SNMP4J 3.9.1 or later)

* Updated: SNMP4J dependency to 3.9.1
* Fixed: The overwriteExistingObjects parameter had been ignored (used as if it was set to true) for
  maxThreads >= 1 of SmiManager.loadModules(String[] moduleNames, int maxThreads, boolean overwriteExistingObjects)
* Fixed: Thread resource leak in SmiManager.loadModules if exception occurred during module loading (i.e., if
  module file was deleted during load operation).

[2025-02-04] Version 1.12.0 (Requires SNMP4J 3.9.0 or later)

* Added: SmiManager.useCompression(boolean) to activate storing of compiled MIB modules with GZIP compressed files.
  This speeds up MIB module loading and safes disk space. By default, this option is now activated.
* Added: SmiManager.loadModules(String[] moduleNames, int maxThreads, boolean overwriteExistingObjects) to load
  MIB modules concurrently with many optimizations for fast MIB module loading.
* Added: SmiManager.resetModules() to unload any loaded modules completely.
* Improved: Several factors have optimized MIB loading speed.
* Updated: Dependencies, for example, SNMP4J 3.9.0 is required to use the new SmiManager.loadModules method.

[2023-10-09] Version 1.11.0 (Requires SNMP4J 3.7.7 or later)

* Refactored: Renamed internal package com.agentpp.snmp to com.agentpp.snmpvalue
  to fix a code signing issue.

[2023-08-07] Version 1.10.0 (Requires SNMP4J 3.7.7 or later)

* Fixed: SmiManager will prefer newer modules according to the LAST-UPDATED clause of
  the MODULE-INFO statement if for the same MIB module name there are several MIB files
  in the compilation list/path. OverwriteIfNewer now will prefer SMIv2 modules as newer
  over SMIv1 modules (without LAST-UPDATED clause) and SMIv1 modules will always be
  overwritten by newly compiled MIB modules.
* Updated: The directory "mibrepository" now contains a completely updated set of compiled
  RFC MIB modules. If you have modified (i.e., added compiled MIB modules to a previous copy
  of this directory), then you will need to redo this operation(s) with the new directory, because
  MIB module IDs of the compiled modules might otherwise not be unique.
* Updated: Dependency to SNMP4J 3.7.7.

[2019-05-14] Version 1.9.9 (Requires SNMP4J 3.1.0 or later)

* Fixed [SFJ-203]: SNMP4J-SMI-PRO does not correctly load MIB modules with compliance modules correctly
  when the MIB module was saved with SNMP4J-SMI-PRO 1.9.6 or earlier and if the Java runtime differs
  (version and/or platform). In the failing case, exception and conditional group clauses are 'null' or
  empty and do not provided the saved content.
* Improved: Small performance improvements to SMI output.

[2015-07-07] Version 1.7.0 (Requires SNMP4J 2.3.3 or later)

  line and column in message).
* Added: End position and end row & column of an SmiError.
* Fixed: Lenient compiler mode accepted too much errors in MIB files resulting
  in compiled MIB modules with missing MIB information (e.g., empty SYNTAX), causing
  NullPointerExceptions if accessed unchecked.

* Improved: ZIP-File support for CompilationResult.
* Added: New interface SmiCompiler and extended control about the compilation process
  and overwriting of MIB modules in the MIB repository.
* Added: SmiObjectFilter.java and SmiManager.findSmiObject by filter method.

[2014-05-18] Version 1.3.2 (Requires SNMP4J 2.3.0 or later)

* Improved: Moved SmiSyntaxElementImpl and SmiSyntaxImpl outside SmiManager in order
  to be able to use SmiSyntax within JSF front end-code.

  BER syntax identifier values.

[2014-03-17] Version 1.3.0 (Requires SNMP4J 2.2.5 or later)

* Added: Easy multi-language support for SmiError messages through ResourceBundles.
  See the sample ResourceBundle SampleSmiErrorResourceBundle.java in the examples
  directory of the
* Added: SmiManager.setIncludeUnknownErrorsCause method to be able to forward
  exceptions in a custom RepositoryDriver to the caller of the compile methods
  as "unknown" SmiErrors.

[2014-03-03] Version 1.2.4 (Requires SNMP4J 2.2.5)

* Fixed: Race condition in SmiManager when accessing many different MIB modules
  concurrently from multiple threads.

[2014-02-18] Version 1.2.3 (Requires SNMP4J 2.2.5)

* Fixed: Regression in SmiManager.listModules which did not return a value if called
  on a SmiManager without a RepositoryDriver.
* Improved: SmiObject.getChildren now returns a list of SmiObjects or its subclasses.
  This allows API users to wrap the SmiObject class in their own subclasses.

[2014-02-14] Version 1.2.2 (Requires SNMP4J 2.2.5)

* Fixed: NullPointerException when calling SmiManger.listModules with the MemRepositoryDriver.

* Initial SNMP4J-SMI-PRO release with four new (additional) SmiManager.find* methods
  which provide direct access to any SMIv1/v2 information (except compliance modules and
  agent-capabilities statements). The SNMP4J-SMI-PRO license is a site license in contrast
  to the user license SNMP4J-SMI.

CHANGES since SNMP4J-SMI 1.1.2:
* Fixed: NullPointerException in SmiManager.compile with some special syntax errors, for example
  if  a lowercase name exceeds 64 characters.
* Improved: Lenient parser mode now also accepts inconsistent syntax (i.e. between table entry and
  column definition) and the underscore ("_") character in lowercase names.
