NAME

       serialize - Calls sub handlers one request at a time.

   Functions
       netsnmp_mib_handler * netsnmp_get_serialize_handler (void)
	   returns a serialize handler that can be injected into a given handler chain.
       int netsnmp_register_serialize (netsnmp_handler_registration *reginfo)
	   functionally the same as calling netsnmp_register_handler() but also injects a serialize handler at the same time for you.
       int netsnmp_serialize_helper_handler (netsnmp_mib_handler *handler, netsnmp_handler_registration *reginfo, netsnmp_agent_request_info
	   *reqinfo, netsnmp_request_info *requests)
	   Implements the serial handler.
       void netsnmp_init_serialize (void)
	   initializes the serialize helper which then registers a serialize handler as a run-time injectable handler for configuration file use.

Detailed Description
       Calls sub handlers one request at a time.

       This functionally passes in one request at a time into lower handlers rather than a whole bunch of requests at once. This is useful for
       handlers that don't want to iterate through the request lists themselves. Generally, this is probably less efficient so use with caution.
       The serialize handler might be useable to dynamically fix handlers with broken looping code, however.
