Thank you all for your help. Is there a quick-n-dirty & easy ASN.1 tutorial that also explains ROSE ? s.a. a ASN.1 for dummies :) ?? The two excellent e-Books are undoubtedly the Bible on ASN.1, but i was looking for a 10 page copy to do with my rosary!!
If there's some explanation of how to convert the old MACRO based teleco-specification -> CLASS / OID based specs, without having to go thru the full eBooks ?? -bd > -----Original Message----- > From: Olivier Dubuisson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Friday, December 10, 2004 9:20 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Cc: BANIBRATA DUTTA; [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: [ASN1] need help with InitialDP op-code (BER) > > [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > > > Hi > > > > The value of the operation is 0.
