Hi,

In ITUT-X.690 clause 8.6.1 (Note) it is mentioned that - "Where it is
necessary to transfer part of a bit string before the entire bitstring
is available, the constructed encoding is used".

If my understanding is correct, the constructed encoding is never
applicable for a BitString member contained in an aggregate
(constructed) type. Since the constructed type cannot be transmitted
in parts, the encoding of a BitString anywhere within a constructed
type would always be subjected to primitive encoding.

Is it correct to assume that the constructed encoding of a BitStream
is applicable only when the BitStream itself is the PDU and not
otherwise?

If this is not the case, kindly explain the other possible scenario
where the constructed encoding is applicable.
