Asn1 Release Notes

+ +

Asn1 1.4.4.3

+ +

Fixed errors and malfunctions

+ +

A class that was referenced in two steps caused a compiler failure. + It is now corrected. + (Own Id: OTP-5103)
+

+ +

Improvements and new features

+ +

+ Optionally make it possible to get the undecoded rest along with + the return value. Compile with option undec_rest. + (Own Id: OTP-5104)
+

+ + + +

Asn1 1.4.4.2

+ +

Fixed errors and malfunctions

+ +

An error due to unchecked referenced imported type resulted + in missing tag in some table constraint cases. This error is + now corrected. Error occured during decode in + ber_bin optimized version. + (Own Id: OTP-5022)
+

+ + + +

Asn1 1.4.4.1

+ + + +

Fixed errors and malfunctions

+ +

When a referenced value in another module in turn referenced a + defined value the compilation crashed. This is due to the new + rutines for compilation, that external referencies are resolved + during compilation, and not by the order in which modules are + compiled. This error is now corrected. + (Own Id: OTP-4970)
+

+ + + +

Asn1 1.4.4

+ + + +

Fixed errors and malfunctions

+ +

+ Functionality for parameterized class is added. Parsing failures on + WithSyntax spec is corrected. + (Own Id: OTP-4893)
+
+ The failure due to Parameterized Type when parameter is an object + set is corrected. + (Own Id: OTP-4894)
+ (Aux Id: OTP-4893) +
+ Object Identifier values with two components and teh first was a + value reference failed due to parsing conflicts. Now it is + corrected. + (Own Id: OTP-4895)
+
+ The errorounus comparison of file name and asn1 module name could + cause compilation failure. The situation for this failure is rare, + it requires that other processes modifies the compiled file during + the compilation procedure. It is now fixed. + (Own Id: OTP-4944) + (Aux Id: seq8429)
+
+ Selective decode was ignored when exclusive decode spec in asn1 + configfile was missing. Selective decode failed when the selected + type was the top type. These bugs are now removed. + (Own Id: OTP-4953) + (Aux Id: seq8436)
+
+ The test interface asn1ct:test/1,2,3 and asn1ct:value/2 failed for + open type and EXTERNAL. The bug is now removed. + (Own Id: OTP-4955) + (Aux Id: seq8438)
+
+ Two equal functions were generated for two components referencing + the same type when they were picked by the action "parts". The bug + is now fixed. + (Own Id: OTP-4957) + (Aux Id: seq8434)
+

+ +

+

+ + + +

Asn1 1.4.3

+ + + +

+ (Own Id: OTP-4856)

+ + + + +

Asn1 1.4.2.2

+ + + + +

Fixed errors and malfunctions

Release of Asn1 1.4.2.1 on R7B, The functionality is the same, but + the layer between the driver and the asn1 erlang code is different. +

+ + + + + +

Asn1 1.4.2.1

+ + + + +

Fixed errors and malfunctions

+ +

+ ObjectDescriptor does now work as part of a sequence, set or choice.
+ (Own Id: OTP-4773) +
+ When a SEQUENCE that have extension mark was decoded inside a + SEQUENCE OF it could cause decode error due to a failure in + restbytes2. It is now corrected.
+ (Own Id: OTP-4791)
+
+ Now the bug is fixed that caused the compiler crash on an untaged + optional open type.
+ (Own Id: OTP-4792) +
+ The earlier exit caused by bad indata is now fixed so it will + rreturn an {error,Reason} tuple.
+ (Own Id: OTP-4797) +
+ Open type encoded with indefinite length is now correct decoded.
+ (Own Id: OTP-4798) +
+ Now is absent optional open types handled correctly.
+ (Own Id: OTP-4799) +
+ Now is the necessary functions available for sorting in run-time of + SET and SET OF components.
+ (Own Id: OTP-4809) +

+ + + + + +

Asn1 1.4.2

+ + + + +

Fixed errors and malfunctions

+ +

+ When a component in a SEQUENCE is a CHOICE (or reference to a CHOICE) + and the SEQUENCE's component and one of the alternatives in the CHOICE + have identical names, an error may occur if one doesn't use the + 'optimized' versions of the compiler. In the older versions (ber, + ber_bin, per, per_bin) one could optionally apply a value of a + component as {ComponentName,Value}, and the generated code + chooses the second element of the tuple. However, a value of a CHOICE + must be applied as a tuple: {AlternativeName,Value}. Thus, + in the rare case described above and if the value to the SEQUENCE's + component is not in a tuple notation the + {AlternativeName,Value} will be peeled off in the SEQUENCE + and the value fed to the CHOICE will only be the Value + part of {AlternativeName,Value}, and the encoder crashes. + The best way to avoid this is to use the optimized version of the + compiler where the unnecessary tuple notation + {ComponentName,Value} no longer is allowed. Since it isn't + possible to solve this bug in the compiler.
+ (Own Id: OTP-4693)
+

+ + + + +

Improvements and new features

+ +

+ Exclusive decode is enabled by a compiler option and a configuration + file. It makes it possible to leave parts of an ASN.1 encoded message + undecoded.
+ (Own Id: OTP-4744)
+

+ + + + + + +

Asn1 1.4.1.1

+ + + + +

Fixed errors and malfunctions

+ +

+ The documentation about how extensibility is handled is now corrected.
+ (Own Id: OTP-4663)
+
+ Function in object now calls the exported function
+ (Own Id: OTP-4665)
+
+ Now is tags for ObjectClassFieldType analyzed correctly. + (Own Id: OTP-4666)
+

+ + + +

Asn1 1.4.1

+ + + + +

Fixed errors and malfunctions

+ +

+ Now is the Default value for an ENUMERATED returned as the name from + the NamedList when decoding. + (Own Id: OTP-4633)
+
+ It was an internal failure when permitted alphabet constraint existed + together with for instance a size constraint. E.g. when a + referenced type is constrained by a size constraint and the defined + type in turn is constrained by a permitted alphabet constraint.
+ (Own Id: OTP-4559)
+
+ Record is generated in hrl file for a CHOICE with extension mark + that has an internal SEQUENCE/SET definition. + (Own Id: OTP-4560)
+
+ Now is the length of a SEQUENCE/SET OF correctly encoded/decoded (PER). + (Own Id: OTP-4590)
+
+ The problem with unordered decoded terms when a component is a + ObjectClassFieldType has been solved. + (Own Id: OTP-4591) +

+ + +

Improvements and new features

+ +

+ More complex definitions with TableConstraints where the SimpleTable + and ComponentRelation are on different levels is now fully + supported. (Own Id: OTP-4631) +

+ + +

Asn1 1.4

+ + + + +

Fixed errors and malfunctions

+ + + + +

Improvements and new features

+ +

+ Each generated .erl file have now a function info/0 that returns + information about the used compiler version and options.
+ (Own Id: OTP-4373)
+
+ When compiling an ASN.1 module the compiler generates an Erlang module + that is compiled by the Erlang compiler. Earlier it was not possible to + add options to the final step, the Erlang compilation. By adding any + option that is not recognized as a specific ASN.1 option it will be + passed to the final step like: erlc +debug_info + Mymodule.asn or + asn1ct:compile('Mymodule',[debug_info]).
+ (Own Id: OTP-4491)
+
+ Earlier one couldn't multi file compile modules that had different + tagdefaul, which now is possible. Equal Type/Value names in different + modules are resolved by renaming (concatenate type name and module + name): If two types with the same name T exist in module A and module B + they will get the new names TA and TB.
+ (Own Id: OTP-4492)
+ (Aux Id: OTP-3983)
+
+ BER: Encode/decode of data have been significantly improved. By use of + the compiler options ber_bin and optimize, + optimized code will be generated and the optimized run-time module will + be used.
+ (Own Id: OTP-4493)
