WHAT TO READ? ============= If you haven't installed the asn1cpp yet, read the INSTALL file for a short installation guide. For the list of asn1cpp command line options, see `asn1cpp -h` or `man asn1cpp`. If you are building the compiler from the sources, these documents reside in the ./doc directory, otherwise they lie nearby the README file you're reading right now. Please also read the FAQ file. An excellent book on ASN.1 is written by Olivier Dubuisson: "ASN.1 Communication between heterogeneous systems", ISBN:0-12-6333361-0. QUICK START ============================================ After building [and installing] the compiler (see INSTALL), you may use the asn1c command to compile the ASN.1 specification: asn1cpp <module.asn1> # Compile module If several specifications contain interdependencies, all of them must be specified: asn1cpp <module1.asn1> <module2.asn1> ... # Compile interdependent modules The compiler -P option is used to instruct the compiler to print the compiled text on the standard output instead of creating multiple .cpp and .hpp files for every ASN.1 type found inside the specified ASN.1 modules. This is useful for debugging and test automation. The compiler -E and -EF options are used for testing the parser and the semantic fixer, respectively. These options will instruct the compiler to dump out the parsed (and fixed) ASN.1 specification as it was "understood" by the compiler. It might be useful for checking whether a particular syntactic construction is properly supported by the compiler. asn1cpp -EF <module-to-test.asn1> # Check semantic validity MODEL OF OPERATION ================== The asn1cpp compiler works by processing the ASN.1 module specification in several stages: 1. In the first stage, the ASN.1 file is parsed. (Parsing produces an ASN.1 syntax tree for the subsequent levels) 2. In the second stage, the syntax tree is "fixed". (Fixing is a process of checking the tree for semantic errors, accompanied by the tree transformation into the canonical form) 3. In the third stage, the syntax tree is compiled into the target language. There are several command-line options reserved for printing the results after each stage of operation: <parser> => print (-E) <parser> => <fixer> => print (-E -F) <parser> => <fixer> => <compiler> => print (-P) <parser> => <fixer> => <compiler> => save-compiled [default] -- Dmitriy Chugunov chugunovdima@gmail.com
