NAME
asntool - process ASN.1 module specifications
SYNOPSIS
asntool [-] [-B filename] [-D N] [-G] [-I str] [-J type] [-K str] [-L str] [-M filename,...] [-P str] [-S filename] [-T filename] [-V] [-X filename] [-Z] [-b N] [-d filename] [-e filename] [-f filename] [-l filename] -m filename [-o filename] [-p filename] [-t str] [-v filename] [-w N] [-x filename]
DESCRIPTION
asntool reads, validates, and displays ASN.1 module specifications.
OPTIONS
A summary of options is included below.
- Print usage message
- -B filename
- Generate objects and code in files named filename.*
- -D N Debugging level for code generation:
- 0 No debugging (default)
1 Shallow debugging
2 Deep debugging
3-9 Same as 2 - -G Generate object loader .c and .h files
- -I str Put "#include str" in generated .c file
- -J type
- Register type type with object manager
- -K str In generated .c, force name of #included asn header to str
- -L str Label registered type as str
- -M filename,...
- Search the ASN.1 modules in filename,... for external references
- -P str XML module prefix for DOCTYPE
- -S filename
- Send debugging output to filename rather than stderr
- -T filename
- Dump ASN.1 tree to filename
- -V Force CHOICE objects to use custom structures rather than ValN
- odePtrs, for compatibility with some old hand-coded object loaders.
- -X filename
- Write XML DTD to filename. If filename is "m", print each module to a separate file.
- -Z Bit twiddle for optional zero value base slots
- -b N Use N-byte buffers (default = 1024; anything between 512 and
- 10000 is legal)
- -d filename
- Read binary values from filename (requires -t)
- -e filename
- Write binary values to filename
- -f filename
- Write ASN.1 module to filename
- -l filename
- Write ASN.1 loader to filename
- -m filename
- Read ASN.1 module from filename
- -o filename
- Write header to filename
- -p filename
- Write print values to filename
- -t str Expect binary values to have type str
- -v filename
- Read print values from filename
- -w N Limit values in #defines to N bits (default = 31; anything
- between 31 and 128 is legal)
- -x filename
- Write XML data to filename
