Here it is thread in PHP-DEV I mentioned:
http://marc.info/?l=php-internals&m=129853991816725
Unless something changes I would prefer to techniques described there.

But PDO has a history back to PHP4 or the days where people where used to check every single return
value for PEAR_Error. The SNMP class is new and could lead as good example for proper OOP style!

(Or do you prefer C style $errno checking after every method call over try/catch statements? The
chances that an error goes unnoticed is much lower with exceptions.)

enable SNMP::ERRNO_ANY by default is not a good idea I think. PDO has the same default behavior for
throwing exceptions.

Thanks for implementing this so quickly. But the constructor still says:
"snmp_object->exceptions_enabled = 0;", as this is a class one would rather expect OOP
style exceptions as default, or?
