Errors were reported using a throw like this:
throw({asn1_error,{get_line(hd(Tokens)),get(asn1_module),
[got,get_token(hd(Tokens)),expected,typereference]}}).
The attempt to tell the user what was expected was often mis-leading.
It is time-consuming and non-trival to provide correct information
of what is expected. Therefore, we will not even try. Instead we will
spend more effort to report the token where the error was discovered.
We will replace each throw with a function call:
parse_error(Tokens).
Also add the syntax_SUITE test suite to test error reporting and to
cover all error reporting code. Remove the old c_syntax/1 test case.
Also remove all out-commented code.

The asn1_wrapper made some sense when encode functions
could either produce a list or a binary, depending on the
backend. Now encode functions always produce a binary.
To improve readbility of the test suites, eliminate the asn1_wrapper
functions by replacing them with calls to one of the roundtrip
functions in asn1_test_lib. When it is not possible to use
the roundtrip functions, call the module in question directly.
While at it, also remove ?line macros that are near to the
touched code and use asn1_test_lib:hex_to_bin/1 instead of
home-brewn hex conversion routines.

Even if the roundtrip functions are very simply, putting them here
makes it possible to change its behavior in one place (e.g. if we
are to change encode and decode not to wrap the result in a ok tuple
in some future release).

Optimize the decoding of CHOICE. Most important is to inline decoding
of the extension bit (if present) and decoding of the choice index
to give the BEAM compiler more opportunities for optimization.
We will also change the structure of the generated code. The current
code uses a flattened case for both the root and extension alternatives:
case Choice + NumRootChoices * Ext of
%% Root alternatives.
0 - ...;
:
LastRootAlternative -> ...;
%% Extension alternatives.
LastRootAlternative+1 -> ...;
:
%% Unknown extension.
_ -> ...;
end
We will instead generate nested cases:
case Ext of
0 ->
case Choice of
%% Root alternatives.
0 - ...;
:
LastRootAlternative -> ...
end;
1 ->
%% Extension alternatives.
<Decode the open type here>
case Choice of
0 -> ...;
:
LastExtensionAlternative -> ...;
%% Unknown extension.
_ -> ...;
end
end
Nested cases should be slightly faster. For decoding of the extensions,
it also makes it possible to hoist the decoding of the open type up
from each case to before the case switching on the extension index,
thus reducing the size of the generated code.
We will also do another change to the structure. Currently, the
big flat clase is wrapped in code that repackages the return values:
{Alt,{Value,RemainingEncodedData}} =
case Choice + NumRootChoices * Ext of
:
end,
{{Value,Alt},RemainingEncodedData}.
We still need to do the repackaging, but we can push it down to
the case arm for decoding each alternative. In many cases, that
will give the BEAM compiler the opportunity to avoid building the
temporary tuples.

On Windows, $ERL_TOP contains a cygwin-style pathname
that can be used in Makefiles to (for instance) include
other Makefiles, but must not be passed to non-cygwin programs
such as "erlc". Therefore, using compiler options such as
"-I $(ERL_TOP)/lib/test_server/include" will not work on
Windows.
Fix this problem by include "test_server.hrl" using
-include_lib() instead of -include(). That works because
-include_lib() searches for include files in the code path
without the need for any -I options.
