Reference for Net-SNMP API?

Question

I'm currently developing a monitoring application for some in-house hardware using net-snmp. I have code that somewhat works, when calling snmp_pdu_free() my code segfaults. I am creating the pdu struct with snmp_create_pdu(). I would like an API reference to see if I am in fact writing my code correctly, but I haven't been able to find one. The best thing I've found is the tutorials on the net-snmp website, but they aren't much help for determining if my code is correct while I'm debugging.

The Net-SNMP documentation is not very helpful, unfortunately. Overall, the API is a bugger to work with, but it does work.

Aside from net-snmp.org and the mailing list, this is the only other useful Net-SNMP related reference I've found useful:

Also, sign up for the 'net-snmp-coders' mailing list. It is very active and you can get feedback directly from the authors of Net-SNMP.

Good luck.
