TextualConvention interface defines the common properties of SMI textual conventions needed to use them across different MIB modules within an agent implementation. A textual convention is characterized by its name and the MIB module name where it has been defined. With these attributes a TC registry is able to lookup TC implementations by name.
A MOFactory can then use a TC name to lookup its implementation and then use one of the two factory methods of each TC to create either a scalar or columnar ManagedObject instance.
If you need to use your own TC implementations (either replacing/extending already provided ones or adding new ones) then register them to the MOFactory you are using.
