ASN1C Compiling from Source and Running Examples on WSL (Ubuntu) and Windows

Before all you can check GNU Autotools: a tutorial

https://elinux.org/images/4/43/Petazzoni.pdf

Author Github

tpetazzoni (Thomas Petazzoni) / Repositories · GitHub

Step-1 Install WSL on Windows (Pro)

You can follow the steps in GitHub - ucoruh/ns3-wsl-win10-setup: ns3 windows 10 WSL2 setup and usage untill NS3 installation. With this installation you will have WSL that have xfce feature for GUI support.

Step-2 Enter WSL Environment via Powershell

Open Powershell with Administrator Privilege and then run

wsl

Step-2 Download ASN1C from Github

Download latest version from (Step-1 should have GIT installation) you can download with WSL or Windows Environment

In the following example we used wsl and specified a folder 'asn1c-vlm' for download operatin.

ucoruh@LAPTOP-RQNNS9IG:/mnt/c/Users/ugur.coruh/Desktop$ git clone https://github.com/vlm/asn1c.git asn1c-vlm
Cloning into 'asn1c-vlm'...
remote: Enumerating objects: 19932, done.
remote: Counting objects: 100% (7/7), done.
remote: Compressing objects: 100% (7/7), done.
remote: Total 19932 (delta 2), reused 2 (delta 0), pack-reused 19925
Receiving objects: 100% (19932/19932), 15.10 MiB | 1011.00 KiB/s, done.
Resolving deltas: 100% (13561/13561), done.
Updating files: 100% (935/935), done.

Or you can just use following in windows git console

git clone https://github.com/vlm/asn1c

Eurecom version : oai / asn1c · GitLab

Enter the asn1c folder in WSL, in my case it will look like following located on desktop

ucoruh@LAPTOP-RQNNS9IG:/mnt/c/Users/ugur.coruh/Desktop/asn1c$

Step-3 Install More Tools for ASN1C

I'll follow travis.yml script for installation

asn1c/.travis.yml at master · vlm/asn1c · GitHub

From this script you can understand compile environment and requirements but in asn1c/REQUIREMENTS.md at master · vlm/asn1c · GitHub this requirements not pointed.

language: c
compiler:
  - gcc
  - clang
env:
  - TASK=check CONFIG_FLAGS="--enable-Werror --enable-test-Werror --enable-code-coverage"
  - TASK=distcheck
before_install:
  - sudo apt-get install -y gcc-multilib lcov libasan*
  - gem install coveralls-lcov
script:
  - autoreconf -iv
  - ./configure $CONFIG_FLAGS
  - make $TASK
after_success:
  - test "x$CC" = "xgcc" -o "x$CC" = "xclang" && make code-coverage-capture && coveralls-lcov asn1c-*-coverage.info
after_failure:
  - find . -name test-suite.log -exec tail -v -n +1 {} +

Run

sudo apt-get install -y gcc-multilib lcov

Run

gem install cover

If you get error in this step this will related with gem installation just read the error and copy advised command for gem installation and then retry.

If you have error during gem installation please try it with sudo

sudo gem install cover

Step-4 Configure and Compile ASN1C from Source

There is a bug that related with DOS or UNIX file format in configure.ac file in asn1c folder use following commands to fix this issue (this solved problem in my case)

git config core.autocrlf false

git rm --cached -r .  # Don’t forget the dot at the end

git reset --hard

After this operation you can check version I have following commit

ugur.coruh@LAPTOP-RQNNS9IG MINGW64 ~/Desktop/asn1c (master)
$ git log
commit 9925dbbda86b436896108439ea3e0a31280a6065 (HEAD -> master, origin/master, origin/HEAD)
Author: Johannes Lode <jyl@gmx.net>
Date:   Fri May 22 01:29:10 2020 +0200

    Improve test coverage by using stderr output in test evaluation of parser and AST testing.

Install autconf package (if you do not have)

sudo apt-get install autoconf

Then start configuration.

autoreconf -iv

Sample output

ucoruh@LAPTOP-RQNNS9IG:/mnt/c/Users/ugur.coruh/Desktop/asn1c$ autoreconf -iv
autoreconf: Entering directory `.'
autoreconf: configure.ac: not using Gettext

autoreconf: Leaving directory `.'

If this success run following command

./configure --enable-Werror --enable-test-Werror --enable-code-coverage

There is a error but I tried to install with error and it worked but. When we use ASN1C complier there are some bugs that we can fix manually such as not coping required files to complied folder, then you should manually copy this files. This was the issue

undefined reference to `BIT_STRING_decode_oer ' Error in compiling · Issue #311 · vlm/asn1c · GitHub that I have to fix.

Step-5 Install ASN1C to WSL

Install the compiler into a standard location:

sudo make install

Display the asn1c manual page:

man asn1c

Thats all you can run asn1c command in the console of WSL

Step-6 Create Circle ASN Example

Check asn1c quick start sheet from asn1c/asn1c-quick.pdf at master · vlm/asn1c · GitHub

This is also in the asn1c/doc/asn1c-quick.pdf

Open a file named TestModule.asn1 in a sample folder like asn1-wsl-sample

Copy content from pdf and create sample asn1 file

TestModule DEFINITIONS ::= BEGIN -- Module parameters preamble
 Circle ::= SEQUENCE { -- Definition of Circle type
 position-x INTEGER, -- Integer position
 position-y INTEGER, -- Position along Y-axis
 radius INTEGER (0..MAX) -- Positive radius
 } -- End of Circle type
END -- End of TestModule

Save file and run following command for this file in working folder

asn1c TestModule.asn1

This will create BER and XER encoder decoder for Circle. Output will like that

There is Circle PDU files and asn1 related files

When you try following command to generate decoder you will get error. This is related with missing files that asn1c not copied to working folder. Just copy BIT_STRING__oer.c and OCTET_STRING_oer.c to working folder from skeletons folders that located in asn1c git solution

cc -DPDU=Circle -I. -o CircleDecoder.exe *.c
ucoruh@LAPTOP-RQNNS9IG:/mnt/c/Users/ugur.coruh/Desktop/asn1-wsl-sample$ cc -DPDU=Circle -I. -o CircleDecoder.exe *.c
/usr/bin/ld: /tmp/ccpoI2Ov.o:(.data.rel+0x38): undefined reference to `BIT_STRING_decode_oer'
/usr/bin/ld: /tmp/ccpoI2Ov.o:(.data.rel+0x40): undefined reference to `BIT_STRING_encode_oer'

/usr/bin/ld: /tmp/ccTz2UTv.o:(.data.rel+0x40): undefined reference to `OCTET_STRING_encode_oer'
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

After coping files try command again

cc -DPDU=Circle -I. -o CircleDecoder.exe *.c

You will see CircleDecoder.exe

ucoruh@LAPTOP-RQNNS9IG:/mnt/c/Users/ugur.coruh/Desktop/asn1-wsl-sample$ ./CircleDecoder.exe -h
Usage: ./CircleDecoder.exe [options] <datafile> ...
Where options are:
  -iber        Input is in BER (Basic Encoding Rules) or DER
  -ioer        Input is in OER (Octet Encoding Rules)
  -iper        Input is in Unaligned PER (Packed Encoding Rules) (DEFAULT)
  -ixer        Input is in XER (XML Encoding Rules)
  -oder        Output as DER (Distinguished Encoding Rules)
  -ooer        Output as Canonical OER (Octet Encoding Rules)
  -oper        Output as Unaligned PER (Packed Encoding Rules)
  -oxer        Output as XER (XML Encoding Rules) (DEFAULT)
  -otext       Output as plain semi-structured text
  -onull       Verify (decode) input, but do not output
  -per-nopad   Assume PER PDUs are not padded (-iper)
  -1           Decode only the first PDU in file
  -b <size>    Set the i/o buffer size (default is 8192)
  -c           Check ASN.1 constraints after decoding
  -d           Enable debugging (-dd is even better)
  -n <num>     Process files <num> times
  -s <size>    Set the stack usage limit (default is 30000)

Note that you can run vscode in wsl, follow the instruction in the links.

Work in Windows Subsystem for Linux with Visual Studio Code

Get Started with C++ and Windows Subsystem for Linux in Visual Studio Code

Quick start example (rectangle.asn) (asn1c-usage.pdf)

I have build and run rectangle sample on both Linux and Windows with some fixes.

A “Rectangle” decoder sample

Create a file named rectangle.asn with the following contents

RectangleModule DEFINITIONS ::= BEGIN

Rectangle ::= SEQUENCE {
height INTEGER,
width INTEGER
}

END

Compile it into the set of .c and .h files using asn1c compiler

asn1c -no-gen-example rectangle.asn

By this time, you should have gotten multiple files in the current directory, including the Rectangle.c and Rectangle.h

Create a sample main.c for decoding operations

#include <stdio.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <Rectangle.h> /* Rectangle ASN.1 type */

/* Write the encoded output into some FILE stream. */
static int write_out(const void *buffer, size_t size, void *app_key) {
FILE *out_fp = app_key;
size_t wrote = fwrite(buffer, 1, size, out_fp);
return (wrote == size) ? 0 : -1;
}

int main(int ac, char **av) {
Rectangle_t *rectangle; /* Type to encode */
asn_enc_rval_t ec; /* Encoder return value */

/* Allocate the Rectangle_t */
rectangle = calloc(1, sizeof(Rectangle_t)); /* not malloc! */
if(!rectangle) {
perror("calloc() failed");
exit(1);
}

/* Initialize the Rectangle members */
rectangle->height = 42; /* any random value */
rectangle->width = 23; /* any random value */

/* BER encode the data if filename is given */
if(ac < 2) {
fprintf(stderr, "Specify filename for BER output\n");
} else {
const char *filename = av[1];
FILE *fp = fopen(filename, "wb"); /* for BER output */

if(!fp) {
perror(filename);
exit(1);
}

/* Encode the Rectangle type as BER (DER) */
ec = der_encode(&asn_DEF_Rectangle, rectangle, write_out, fp);
fclose(fp);
if(ec.encoded == -1) {
fprintf(stderr, "Could not encode Rectangle (at %s)\n",
ec.failed_type ? ec.failed_type->name : "unknown");
exit(1);
} else {
fprintf(stderr, "Created %s with BER encoded Rectangle\n", filename);
}

}

/* Also print the constructed Rectangle XER encoded (XML) */
xer_fprint(stdout, &asn_DEF_Rectangle, rectangle);

return 0; /* Encoding finished successfully */

}

Open VsCode in WSL

in WSL console enter project working directory and open vscode with

VsCode Remote Development Error Bugfixing

If you do not have the following remote development extension on vscode you may have problem about connecting to WSL

https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=ms-vscode-remote.vscode-remote-extensionpack

and install the following extension also

https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=ms-vscode-remote.remote-wsl

Build, Run and Debug with VsCode on WSL

Run following command in WSL and source folder

gcc -I. -DPDU=Rectangle -o rectangle-decoder.out *.c

This will provide an executable for decoder sample.

If you get error for missing files please copy them to source folder from skeletons folders.

Lets build, run and debug this VsCode in WSL

Create tasks.json file to configure our build tasks for Linux environment

To access tasks use

CTRL+SHIFT+P
{
    "version": "2.0.0",
    "tasks": [
        {
            "type": "cppbuild",
            "label": "C: wsl gcc.exe build all",
            "command": "gcc",
            "args": [
                "-g",
                "-I${workspaceFolder}",
                "-o",
                "${workspaceFolder}//rectangle-decoder.out",
                "${workspaceFolder}/*.c"
            ],
            "options": {
                "pwd": "${fileDirname}"
            },
            "problemMatcher": [
                "$gcc"
            ],
            "group": {
                "kind": "build",
                "isDefault": true
            },
            "detail": "compiler: \"//usr//bin//gcc\""
        }
    ]
}

In this configuration we include current workspace and added c extension files for our build. Output file is rectangle-decoder.out

For debugging operations I prefer to generate binary first and then start debugging. You will set this parameters in launch.json

To access debug configuration enter

CTRL+SHIFT+P

and search for >Debug:

Start debugging with F5

{
  "version": "0.2.0",
  "configurations": [
    {
      "name": "C Runner WSL Debug Session",
      "type": "cppdbg",
      "request": "launch",
      "program": "${workspaceFolder}/rectangle-decoder.out",
      "args": [],
      "stopAtEntry": false,
      "cwd": "${fileDirname}",
      "environment": [],
      "externalConsole": false,
      "MIMode": "gdb",
      "setupCommands": [
        {
          "description": "Enable pretty-printing for gdb",
          "text": "-enable-pretty-printing",
          "ignoreFailures": true
        }
      ]
    }
  ]
}

In this setting we target the rectangle-decoder.out, do not forget the refresh build if you make change on source code.

You can open terminal in vscode and access WSL environment but its a bit slow.

If you run task, terminal will process following command for building binary

Starting build...
gcc -g -I/mnt/c/Users/ugur.coruh/Desktop/asn1c-wsl-sample/rectangle-sample -o /mnt/c/Users/ugur.coruh/Desktop/asn1c-wsl-sample/rectangle-sample//rectangle-decoder.out /mnt/c/Users/ugur.coruh/Desktop/asn1c-wsl-sample/rectangle-sample/*.c
Build finished successfully.

Output binary execution will decode our inputs as follow

ucoruh@LAPTOP-RQNNS9IG:/mnt/c/Users/ugur.coruh/Desktop/asn1c-wsl-sample/rectangle-sample$ ./rectangle-decoder.out 
Specify filename for BER output
<Rectangle>
    <height>42</height>
    <width>23</width>
</Rectangle>

Build, Run and Debug with VsCode on Windows

You should install mingw-w64 for GCC and set this required paths on launch.json and tasks.json for vscode

mingw-w64 installation steps are explained in GitHub - ucoruh/gcc-c-on-visual-studio: Development of C with GCC by Using Visual Studio Community Edition .

In my case my installation folder is

C:\\Program Files\\mingw-w64\\x86_64-8.1.0-win32-seh-rt_v6-rev0\\mingw64\\bin\\

in this bin folder I have gcc, g++ and gdb environment

Tasks.json file with both Linux and Windows will be like that

{
    "version": "2.0.0",
    "tasks": [
        {
            "type": "cppbuild",
            "label": "C: windows gcc.exe build all",
            "command": "C:\\Program Files\\mingw-w64\\x86_64-8.1.0-win32-seh-rt_v6-rev0\\mingw64\\bin\\gcc.exe",
            "args": [
                "-fdiagnostics-color=always",
                "-I.",
                "-o",
                "${fileDirname}\\${fileBasenameNoExtension}.exe",
                "-Wall",
                "-Wextra",
                "-Wpedantic",
                "*.c"
            ],
            "options": {
                "cwd": "${fileDirname}"
            },
            "problemMatcher": [
                "$gcc"
            ],
            "group": {
                "kind": "build",
                "isDefault": true
            },
            "detail": "compiler: \"C:\\Program Files\\mingw-w64\\x86_64-8.1.0-win32-seh-rt_v6-rev0\\mingw64\\bin\\gcc.exe\""
        },
        {
            "type": "cppbuild",
            "label": "C: wsl gcc.exe build all",
            "command": "gcc",
            "args": [
                "-g",
                "-I${workspaceFolder}",
                "-o",
                "${workspaceFolder}//rectangle-decoder.out",
                "${workspaceFolder}/*.c"
            ],
            "options": {
                "pwd": "${fileDirname}"
            },
            "problemMatcher": [
                "$gcc"
            ],
            "group": {
                "kind": "build",
                "isDefault": true
            },
            "detail": "compiler: \"//usr//bin//gcc\""
        }
    ]
}

Launch.json also will like that for Windows and WSL (There is one more configuration not required but VsCode default create this configuration record)

}

with this setup if you try to build your code you have to fix something in skeleton files

asn_system.h after WIN32 flag insert following definitions.

#ifdef    _WIN32

#define PRIuMAX "llu"
#define PRIdMAX "lld"

In asn_random_fill.c insert following includes and replace random() with rand() (This should be configured with macros for each platform but in our case work for both windows and wsl)

...
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
...
intmax_t
asn_random_between(intmax_t lb, intmax_t rb) {
    if(lb == rb) {
        return lb;
    } else {
        const uintmax_t intmax_max = ((~(uintmax_t)0) >> 1);
        uintmax_t range = asn__intmax_range(lb, rb);
        uintmax_t value = 0;

        assert(RAND_MAX > 0xffffff);    /* Seen 7ffffffd! */

        for(; got_entropy < range;) {
            got_entropy = (got_entropy << 24) | 0xffffff;
            value = (value << 24) | (rand() % 0xffffff);
        }

        return lb + (intmax_t)(value % (range + 1));
    }
}

With this modifications you can compile and run application from console or vscode

When we run task it process following command in terminal

"C:\Program Files\mingw-w64\x86_64-8.1.0-win32-seh-rt_v6-rev0\mingw64\bin\gcc.exe" -fdiagnostics-color=always -I. -o C:\Users\ugur.coruh\Desktop\asn1c-wsl-sample\rectangle-sample\main.exe -Wall -Wextra -Wpedantic *.c

If we run exe we can see output

PS C:\Users\ugur.coruh\Desktop\asn1c-wsl-sample\rectangle-sample> .\main.exe
Specify filename for BER output
<Rectangle>
    <height>42</height>
    <width>23</width>
</Rectangle>
PS C:\Users\ugur.coruh\Desktop\asn1c-wsl-sample\rectangle-sample>

for visual studio community edition you can check Using MinGW and Cygwin with Visual C++ and Open Folder - C++ Team Blog and you can update task for visual studio.

Thats all...

Troubleshooting Guide

#error Define -DPDU to compile this example converter

converter-example.c:42:2: error: #error Define -DPDU to compile this example converter.
   42 | #error Define -DPDU to compile this example converter.
      |  ^~~~~
converter-example.c:43:2: error: #error `asn1c -pdu=...` adds necessary flags automatically.
   43 | #error `asn1c -pdu=...` adds necessary flags automatically.

You need to define -DPDU definition as follow. This PDU is can be Rectangle or Circle according to your asn file

cc -DPDU=Circle -I. -o CircleDecoder.exe *.c

  • Command-Option-1
gcc -I. -DPDU=Rectangle -o rectangle-decoder.out *.c
  • Command-Option-2
gcc -I. -DPDU=all -o rectangle-decoder.out *.c
  • Command-Option-3
gcc -I. -DPDU=auto -o rectangle-decoder.out *.c

In the user guide, you can see usage as follow.

https://lionet.info/asn1c/asn1c-usage.pdf

  asn1c *.asn1 cc -I. -DPDU=Rectangle -o rectangle.exe *.c # ... or like this

Also, this error was generated with the following code in the converter example.c

#ifndef NO_ASN_PDU#if !defined(PDU) && !defined(ASN_PDU_COLLECTION)#error Define -DPDU to compile this example converter.#error `asn1c -pdu=...` adds necessary flags automatically.#endif
#endif
  • If you use the asnc1 tool that you installed you can use it as follow. But you have -pdu=all or -pdu=auto options also
    asn1c -pdu=Rectangle *.asn1
 fprintf(stderr, "-pdu=%s: expected -pdu={all|auto|Type}\n", pduname);

In the Change Logs

0.9.22: 2008-Nov-19

  • Added -pdu=all and -pdu= switches to asn1c.
