## Detailed Description

Print out debugging information about the handler chain being called.

This is a useful **module** for run-time debugging of requests as the pass this handler in a calling chain. All debugging output is done via the standard debugging routines with a token name of 'helper:debug', so use the -Dhelper:debug command line flag to see the output when running the snmpd demon. It's not recommended you compile this into a handler chain during compile time, but instead use the 'injectHandler' token in the snmpd.conf file (or similar) to add it to the chain later:

injectHandler debug my\_module\_name

to see an example output, try:

injectHandler debug mibII/system

and then run snmpwalk on the 'system' group.
