Value Specifications

---

The ASN1C compiler can parse any type of ASN.1 value specification, but will only generate code for certain types. In this release of the compiler, the following types of value specifications will result in generated code:

• BOOLEAN
• INTEGER
• ENUMERATED
• Binary String
• Hexadecimal String
• Character String
• OBJECT IDENTIFER

If any of the above types of value specifications are detected in an ASN.1 module, the compiler will generate a Java source file with a special class to hold the values. The name of the source file and class is of the following format:

	_<ModuleName>Values
 

In this definition, <ModuleName> would be replaced with the name of the ASN.1 module in which the values are defined.

The following sections provide details on the Java constants generated for the various types of ASN.1 value specifications.
