My MIB file has one main table defined (Table1) and has multiple other
tables (Table2,3,4,5,6) defined which are extensions to Table1.
So Robert ..... instead of me implementing sub-containers, lets say I implement
your other suggestion of adding all the fields defined in Table2,3,4,5,6 into
the "data_context" structure for Table1. I believe I will be able to use a
"union" to define these new fields within the structure to conserve space since
each table is mutually exclusive to each other.
Now, I would like to make sure I understand how to populate the data_context
correctly.
I assume the "container_load()" procedure of Table1 (main table) will be called
first (somehow) and will be responsible for allocating new rows and generating
new index values for each row and the "container_load()" procedures in
Table2,3,4,5,6 will not be performing any of these functions ..... correct?
When the "container_load()" procedure for Table1 is called, I would like to
populate all of Table1 fields at this time, however, must I populate all fields
defined in Table2,3,4,5,6 at this time as well?
If I do not populate the fields from Table2,3,4,5,6 at this time, then how will
I be
able to populate the fields later? Will the "container_load()" procedure for
Table2,3,4,5,6 be called eventually and should I populate those fields at this
time instead? If so, how will I know what correct table index (ie: row index)
from Table1 the data should be inserted into at this time?
Perhaps you can recommend where certain functionality should be implemented
within the "mfd" code so I can get a better picture of how this should be done?
Also, just curious .... when the cache expires, then I assume the
"container_load()" procedure is called again to regenerate the complete table
over again as it originally did ... is this correct? I assume new rows will be
allocated again.
