2017-02-21encode/decode: Include the stack trace in error returnsBjörn Gustavsson
The generated encode/2 and decode/2 functions can return cryptic error messages. Consider this ASN.1 spec: T DEFINITIONS AUTOMATIC TAGS ::= BEGIN S ::= SEQUENCE { b BOOLEAN, i INTEGER (1..100), j INTEGER (0..7), s OCTET STRING } END In OTP 19, the error terms will look like this: Eshell V8.2 (abort with ^G) 1> asn1ct:compile('T', [ber]). ok 2> rr('T'). ['S'] 3> 'T':encode('S', #'S'{}). {error,{asn1,{encode_boolean,undefined}}} 4> 'T':encode('S', #'S'{b=false}). {error,{asn1,{encode_integer,undefined}}} 5> 'T':encode('S', #'S'{b=false,i=7,j=0}). {error,{asn1,function_clause}} Some error terms are clearer than other. In the first error term, it is clear that the error refers to the 'b' field, since there is only one BOOLEAN in 'S'. The second error term could refer to either 'i' or 'j'. The last error term... well... in this case we can infer that it must refer to 's'. The easiest way to provide more information is to include the stack trace with line numbers in the error term: 3> 'T':encode('S', #'S'{b=false}). {error,{asn1,{{encode_integer,undefined}, [{'T',encode_integer,2,[{file,"T.erl"},{line,240}]}, {'T',enc_S,2,[{file,"T.erl"},{line,102}]}, {'T',encode,2,[{file,"T.erl"},{line,36}]}, {erl_eval,do_apply,6,[{file,"erl_eval.erl"},{line,674}]}, {shell,exprs,7,[{file,"shell.erl"},{line,686}]}, {shell,eval_exprs,7,[{file,"shell.erl"},{line,641}]}, {shell,eval_loop,3,[{file,"shell.erl"},{line,626}]}]}}} By looking at the generated Erlang code, we can see that encoding failed for 'i'. This is an compatible change. All that the documentation says is that the format of the error tuple is: {error,{asn1,Description}} With this change, Description is always a tuple: {ErrorDescription,StackTrace} Alternatives considered: Providing more information in the error term itself and make sure there can be no 'function_clause', 'badarg', or 'badmatch' exceptions. That would be possible, but it would require a lot of work and it would increase the size of the generated code and make it slower. Therefore, this solution was rejected.
2017-02-17PER: Slightly improve error reporting for encodingBjörn Gustavsson
Generate slightly better error reasons when encoding of INTEGER, ENUMERATED, or BOOLEAN fails.

2016-02-17Eliminate use of test_server.hrl and test_server_line.hrlBjörn Gustavsson
As a first step to removing the test_server application as as its own separate application, change the inclusion of test_server.hrl to an inclusion of ct.hrl and remove the inclusion of test_server_line.hrl.
2016-01-21PER: Correct compilation of named INTEGERsBjörn Gustavsson
When a constrained INTEGER has more than 16536 values and named values, the compiler would crash when compiling to the PER format. Example: Longitude ::= INTEGER { oneMicrodegreeEast(10), oneMicrodegreeWest(-10), unavailable(1800000001) } (-1799999999..1800000001) Reported-by: Ingars

2015-01-12BER: Fix ENUMERATED with negative valuesBjörn Gustavsson
The ASN.1 compiler would go into an infinite loop if a value in an ENUMERATED was negative.
2013-09-27Teach the ASN.1 compiler the no_ok_wrapper optionBjörn Gustavsson
Add the no_ok_wrapper option so that the generated M:encode/2 and M:decode/2 functions will not wrap a successful return value in an {ok,...} tuple. Errors will cause exceptions. Eliminating the wrapping tuple allows simpler nesting of calls.
2013-09-18Eliminate the use of asn1_wrapperBjörn Gustavsson
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.
2013-09-18asn1_test_lib: Add roundtrip functions and use them everywhereBjörn Gustavsson
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).

2013-03-12PER: Ensure that the complete encoding is at least one byteBjörn Gustavsson
If the encoding is empty (i.e. if a top-level type is single-valued and therefore not encoding), the result should be a single zero byte.

2010-03-11asn1 tests: Don't refer to $ERL_TOP in compiler optionsBjörn Gustavsson
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.
