Hi,
I have a question about the Indefinite length encoding. From Sections
8.1.3 and 8.1.5 of the ITU-T X.690 specification, I understand that
WHENEVER the length is given as indefinite length (value 0x80), then the
corresponding contents HAVE to end with the end-of-contents octets (2
octets of value 0 each). Is there any exception to this rule ? More
specifically, if the type whose encoding has the length as indefinite
length is the last field within a structure whose encoding has a fixed
length encoding, do the end-of-contents octets still need to be given ?
Or do the encoding rules allow for no such exceptions ?
Regards,
Divya
