Well, I've better correct myself. It is not necessarily an error in the
notation, as it defines an ObjectClassFieldType. Here it defines an open
type, and as there are no constraints on the type it can be regarded as
the old 'ANY'.
So you type seems to be translated to:
ISO7816DOAttributes ::= CHOICE {
indirect ReferencedValue,
direct [0] ANY
}
which probably didn't help you much...
So I'll still say that there are something 'wrong' with the notation.
