2017-02-06Teach the ASN.1 compiler the 'maps' optionBjörn Gustavsson
When the 'maps' option is given, the SEQUENCE and SET types are represented as maps instead of as records. Optional and default values must be not be given as asn1_NOVALUE or asn1_DEFAULT in a map passed to the M:encode/2 function; they must be omitted from the map. Similarly, when decoding missing values will be omitted from the map. No .hrl files will be generated when the 'maps' options is used. That means values in an ASN.1 module must be retrieved by calling the appropriate function in generated module. Since we one day hope to get rid of the options 'compact_bit_string', 'legacy_bit_string', and 'legacy_erlang_types', we will not allow them to be combined with the 'maps' option.
2016-08-12Support 'make -j' when compiling ASN.1 modulesBjörn Gustavsson
When attempting to build multiple ASN.1 modules in parallel (e.g. by running 'make -j'), the ASN.1 compiler could crash because the names of the .asn1db files clashed. For example, if A.asn1 and B.asn1 both import from C.asn1, the compiler would write a C.asn1db file when compiling A.asn1 and when compiling B.asn1. We can avoid this problem if the compiler only writes the module's own .asn1db file. That is, when compiling A.asn1, the compiler would only write A.asn1db, not C.asn1db. Also, make sure that we make the write atomic by first writing to a temporary file that is then renamed.

2015-01-12Reimplement storeindb/2 to avoid excessive process communicationBjörn Gustavsson
As currently implemented, there is one call to asn1db:dbget() and asn1db:dbput() for each type/value definitions in an ASN.1 specification. If we check for duplicate definitions locally, we can send all definitions in a single call.
2013-09-03Clean up handling of .asn1db filesBjörn Gustavsson
There is (differenct) code for reading .asn1db files both in asn1ct and asn1_db. Consolidate the reading into one routine in asn1db. Another problem is that the encoding rule that the .asn1db file was created for is not in the .asn1db, but only in the generated Erlang module. It is much easier and safer to put the encoding rule in the .asn1db file itself. We will also put the version number of the asn1 application into the file, to ensure that we don't use an old .asn1db file that could potentially be incompatible.

2013-05-31asn1_db: Make dbput/3 and dbsave/2 asynchronousBjörn Gustavsson
Those functions have no reason to be synchronous since they don't have a useful return value.
2013-05-31asn1_db: Remove unused functionsBjörn Gustavsson
Also replace unused code with assertions. While at it, also let reply/2 return 'ok' to silence Dialyzer warnings for unmatched returns.
2012-03-29replace 5 sec timeout (too short) with monitor in asn1_db requestsKenneth Lundin
This bug was introduced as part of the parallelization of test suites and is notpart of any released version

- Refactor and clean up asn1_db process - Remove unused stop function in asn1ct.erl - Remove infinite loop possibilites in asn1ct_check.erl - test/1,2,3 now run in separate process - Update documentation for new test options
