--------------------------------
Summary: Separate ASN1 parser
Key: DIRKRB-490
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRKRB-490
Project: Directory Kerberos
Issue Type: New Feature
Reporter: Kai Zheng
Assignee: Kai Zheng
*Kerby-asn1* is mainly a user model/type driven or oriented framework. The ASN1
parsing procedure is tightly coupled with the model value binding process.
Recent changes made good progress, and this would decouple the two aspects
totally and provide separate ASN1 parser to cover use cases supported by other
libraries as well. In other words, users can use this facility to parse data
stream to emit ASN1 built-in type objects without having to define their models
or types. This is very handy for small tasks or tools.
With this separating, the codes for user model type support and value binding
will also be cleaner and easy to understand, since the part won't care parsing
logics. With the new parser added, the library will be more complete.
