Found the problem!
Having the TCs and the MIB objects in one file causes the application to
corrupt the compiled TC file. (I did not realize both were in the same
file.) Removing the MIB objects from the file with the TCs corrects the
problem.
Why are the two files structured this way?

Thanks, Ron. I'll take a look, too.

Rick,
I have isolated the problem to the PDM-TC MIB. I'll try to look some
more tomorrow to determine why.

RE: PDM> New draft MIB files on

Ron, this sounds bad, if your software can browse all MIBs with tables
*except* the PDM MIB. What is it about our table structure that is so
funky that it hangs the software? Can you please poke around in the PDM
MIB, which doesn't work, and some other MIBs that do work, to see if
there is any understandable difference? It is entirely possible that
our tables are not defined just so.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

No, I am not trying to read the tables. Only looking at the MIB
structure in the browser. This is where the desired objects are
selected to be monitored. I am able to see the structure of all the
MIBs I have compiled, except the pdm.

Again, thanks, Ron. But what browser hangs up on what tables? I don't
understand. Do you have something that really instantiates the MIB and
a browser that wants to look at it? With no underlying database, all
the tables should be empty.

Without the plus sign it compiles.
I assume the message is an error, since it does not complete the
compile.
When I comment out the range, the compile completes.
After the compile is complete the browser hangs up on many of the
tables.
Example, if I try to open the pdmGeneral table. I have tried all, but
most seem to have this characteristic.

Thanks, Ron. Still no cigar, eh?
- On the ...Sharpness range, is it the plus sign that it is objecting
to? I wondered about that myself. Please try editing that out and see.
I will nuke it in the XML.
- On the Locale... ones, is it giving an error or a warning? Failure to
specify probably shouldn't be an error unless the SMI specs really say
SHALL. I'll check.

I updated, on ftp://ftp.pwg.org/pub/pwg/pdm/objects/

Please try again to compile the beast and let me know the results.
