Actually no - these names are defined as *fields* within the
dot1qVlanStaticTable_data
data structure.   They're not defined as separate variables, which is
how they are being
used in the data_access file.

What changes have you made to the generated code?
There are two blocks marked "EXAMPLE CODE" which probably need to be
tweaked to finish implementing the MIB.   In particular, the second one
includes a comment   /*  parse line into variables  */
which is probably where dot1qVlanStaticName (& dot1qVlanStaticName_len)
and similar should be set up.

I suspect that's because it's then referring to variables that *have* been
declared elsewhere in the agent - i.e. the "container_load" routine is
sort-of-complete.

I also suspect that this only works if you choose a table that has been
implemented using the MfD framework.    I'd be much less confident that
things would compile if you chose a table that was coded in a different way
(such as the DisMan Event MIB mteTriggerTable or the Net-SNMP specific
nsModuleTable)

It's certainly possible that there is a bug in mib2c or the MfD framework,
though I'd be surprised.   This isn't an approach that I'm particularly fond
of myself (which is why I don't personally use it), but Robert swears by it.
So it's unlikely that the code framework that it produces is fundamentally
broken.

   But remember that the code generated by mib2c is just a *template*
for implementing your MIB.   It doesn't pretend to be a complete working
implementation straight off.   You still need to fill in the gaps.

If you're trying to take the output and compile it as it stands, then no,
this won't work.
