Hi Conrad, In that case how come 02 04 FA becomes a legal coding where as the most appropriate coding is 02 01 FA. (In this coding we use the least number of bytes.Erstwhile, 02 04 FA might confuse the decoder in reading additional 3 bytes of adjacent TLV).
Please explain thanks and regards kb devaraj --- Conrad Sigona <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On Wed, 24 Oct 2001, Bruno.Konik wrote: > > > I do not quite agree with this answer because it > is forbidden to have the > > nine first bits set to 1 (rule 8.3.2 of X690). > This is done to code on the > > minimum number of bytes. > > I would say that 0204FFFFFFFA should never have > been encoded by a BER > > encoder.
