open source snmp manager library

Question

I know one can build an snmp client using net snmp. Does anyone know an open source snmp manager library in C? or maybe my understanding is not correct. The net snmp library can also be used to build a snmp manager? I need to build a snmp manager to test my snmp client app.

Thanks.

If all you're interested in is testing, I'd suggest simply using some simple command line tools for sending queries to your agent. The Net-SNMP engine you mentioned would work well, and has many online tutorials for how to send queries to your app. See the Net-SNMP tutorials on the subject.
