.PP 
This is a backwards compatilibity module that allows code written in the old API to be run under the new handler based architecture. 
.PP
Use it by calling \fBnetsnmp_register_old_api()\fP. 
.SH "Function Documentation"

.SS "\fBnetsnmp_mib_handler\fP* get_old_api_handler (void)"
.PP
returns a old_api handler that should be the final calling handler. 
.PP
Don't use this function. Use the \fBnetsnmp_register_old_api()\fP function instead.

Registers an old API set into the mib tree. 
.PP
Functionally this mimics the old register_mib_context() function (and in fact the new register_mib_context() function merely calls this new old_api one).
