Q: I've tried doing ./asn1c/asn1c -P examples/*PKIX*93*, but compiler spits
|
||||
several fatal failures and exits.
|
||||
A:
|
||||
The PKIX1 specifications uses ASN.1 Information Object Classes,
|
||||
which is arguably one of the most complex ASN.1 concepts.
|
||||
|
||||
The asn1c parser and fixer subsystems currently understand most of
|
||||
IOC syntax, but the compiler can cope with only the very basic
|
||||
IOC semantics.
|
||||
|
||||
The goal of asn1c is to adequately support the practically necessary
|
||||
subset of IOCs to compile PKIX1 and other real-world specs,
|
||||
but this milestone isn't yet reached. Please contact me in case
|
||||
you have special requirements, we can work it out.
|
||||
|
||||
P.S. Parser and fixer are now able to grok PKIX1, try this out:
|
||||
|
||||
./asn1c/asn1c -E -F examples/*PKIX*93*
