<description>
<p>This module is the interface module for the ASN.1 runtime support functions.
To encode and decode ASN.1 types in runtime the functions in this module
should be used.</p>
</description>
<funcs>
<func>
<name>decode(Module,Type,Bytes) -> {ok,Value}|{error,Reason}</name>
<fsummary>Decode from bytes into an ASN.1 value.</fsummary>
<type>
<v>Module = Type = atom()</v>
<v>Value = Reason = term()</v>
<v>Bytes = binary | [Int] when integer(Int), Int >= 0, Int =< 255 | binary</v>
</type>
<desc>
<p>Decodes <c>Type</c> from <c>Module</c> from the list of bytes or
binary <c>Bytes</c>. If the module is compiled with <c>ber_bin</c>
or <c>per_bin</c> option <c>Bytes</c> must be a binary.
Returns <c>{ok,Value}</c> if successful.</p>
</desc>
</func>
<func>
<name>encode(Module,Type,Value)-> {ok,BinOrList} | {error,Reason}</name>
<fsummary>Encode an ASN.1 value.</fsummary>
<type>
<v>Module = Type = atom()</v>
<v>Value = term()</v>
<v>BinOrList = Bytes | binary()</v>
<v>Bytes = [Int|binary|Bytes] when integer(Int), Int >= 0, Int =< 255</v>
<v>Reason = term()</v>
</type>
<desc>
<p>Encodes <c>Value</c> of <c>Type</c> defined in the ASN.1 module
<c>Module</c>. Returns a possibly nested list of bytes and or binaries
if successful. If <c>Module</c> was compiled with the options <c>per_bin</c> and <c>optimize</c> the result is a binary. To get as
fast execution as possible the
encode function only performs rudimentary tests that the input
<c>Value</c>
is a correct instance of <c>Type</c>. The length of strings is for example
not always checked. </p>
</desc>
</func>
<func>
<name>info(Module) -> {ok,Info} | {error,Reason}</name>
<fsummary>Returns compiler information about the Module.</fsummary>
<type>
<v>Module = atom()</v>
<v>Info = list()</v>
<v>Reason = term()</v>
</type>
<desc>
<p><c>info/1</c> returns the version of the asn1 compiler that was
used to compile the module. It also returns the compiler options
that was used.</p>
</desc>
</func>
<func>
<name>load_driver() -> ok | {error,Reason}</name>
<fsummary>Loads the linked-in driver. (deprecated)</fsummary>
<type>
<v>Reason = term()</v>
</type>
<desc>
<p>This function is obsolete and will be removed in R16A</p>
</desc>
</func>
<func>
<name>unload_driver() -> ok | {error,Reason}</name>
<fsummary>Unloads the linked-in driver. (deprecated)</fsummary>
<type>
<v>Reason = term()</v>
</type>
<desc>
<p>This function is obsolete and will be removed in R16A</p>
</desc>
</func>
<func>
<name>utf8_binary_to_list(UTF8Binary) -> {ok,UnicodeList} | {error,Reason}</name>
<fsummary>Transforms an utf8 encoded binary to a unicode list.</fsummary>
<type>
<v>UTF8Binary = binary()</v>
<v>UnicodeList = [integer()]</v>
<v>Reason = term()</v>
</type>
<desc>
<p><c>utf8_binary_to_list/1</c> Transforms a UTF8 encoded binary
to a list of integers, where each integer represents one
character as its unicode value. The function fails if the binary
is not a properly encoded UTF8 string.</p>
</desc>
</func>
<func>
<name>utf8_list_to_binary(UnicodeList) -> {ok,UTF8Binary} | {error,Reason}</name>
<fsummary>Transforms an unicode list ot an utf8 binary.</fsummary>
<type>
<v>UnicodeList = [integer()]</v>
<v>UTF8Binary = binary()</v>
<v>Reason = term()</v>
</type>
<desc>
<p><c>utf8_list_to_binary/1</c> Transforms a list of integers,
where each integer represents one character as its unicode
value, to a UTF8 encoded binary.</p>
