+ <p>For the PER and UPER formats, code generation
+ especially for encoding has been improved.</p>
+ <p>When encoding BIT STRINGs, values longer than the
+ maximum size for the BIT STRING type would be truncated
+ silently - they now cause an exception.</p>
+ <p>Open types greater than 16383 bytes will now be
+ correctly encoded and decoded.</p>
+ <p>IMPORTANT NOTE: For ASN.1 specifications that depend
+ on each other, such as the S1AP-* specifications, it is
+ important to recompile all specifications (compiling some
+ with this version of the compiler and some with an older
+ version will not work).</p>

+ <p>PER/UPER: A semi-constrained INTEGER with a non-zero
+ lower bound would be incorrectly decoded. This bug was
+ introduced in R16.</p>
+ <p>PER/UPER: Given <c>INTEGER (10..MAX, ...)</c>,
+ attempting to decode any integer below 10 would cause the
+ encoder to enter an infinite loop.</p>
+ <p>PER/UPER: For a type with an extensible SIZE
+ constraint, sizes outside of the root range were
+ incorrectly encoded.</p>
+ <p>Given a constraint such as <c>(SIZE (5, ...))</c>,
+ encoding a size less than 5 would fail (PER/UPER).
+ Similarly, for BER decoding would fail.</p>
+ <p>PER: The encoder did not align a known multiplier
+ string (such as IA5String) of length 16 bits (exactly) to
+ an octet boundary.</p>
+ <p>In rare circumstances, DEFAULT values for the UPER
+ backend could be wrongly encoded.</p>

+ <item>
+ <p>UPER: The compiler would crash when compiling an
+ ENUMERATED having more than 63 extended values.</p>
+ <p>PER/UPER: A SEQUENCE with more 64 extended values
+ could not be decoded.</p>
+ <p>
+ Own Id: OTP-11153</p>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>
+ When decoding a SEQUENCE defined inline inside a an
+ extension addition group, the record named generated by
+ the decoding code would not match the name in the
+ generated .hrl file.</p>
