Well, throwing exceptions everywhere is exactly what I'd with for but to discuss this I opened
#55542. This one can be closed as we now have a way to check for the presence of a MIB (more or less
convenient).

I have read a bunch of threads on php-dev about extensions throwing exceptions and the last thing I
remember that extension should not throw any exception except object creation if there is no way to
disable them.
Anyway, if to throw exceptions, library will throw an exception for each error, not only parsing
error.

Now the following works..
@$snmp->get(array($oid1, $oid2));
if ($snmp->getErrno() == SNMP::ERRNO_OID_PARSING_ERROR) {
throw new Exception($snmp->getError());
}
... but why is there only a warning? Calling get() with a OID that does not even parses should throw
an Exception? Especially as when using OOP, one does not expect having to call getErrno() after
every call as we did in the last millenium or even worse don't catch this error.
Can you wrapt this into a nice SnmpOidParsingException?

As of SVN revision 315762 from now, the constant only appears in the tests, not in the class source.
Running the tests yield to:
Fatal error: Undefined class constant 'ERRNO_OID_PARSING_ERROR' in
/home/chammers/workspace/php-src-5.4/ext/snmp/tests/snmp-object-errno-errstr.php on line 45
Maybe it's not yet committet?

Please check that you have ERRNO_OID_PARSING_ERROR in snmp extension sources. This constant appeared
on 27th of august.
