Hi Fatih,

There is no "parser text'" that reads ASN.1 notation in the ASN.1
framework. I think it would be nice to have it developed - that would
make easier to implement protocols based on ASN.1

Sounds good.

Please let us know if the documentation should be improved.

I'm not guru in parser generators so I don't know how much "Javacc
studying" will help you in developing your own ASN.1 parser. The ASN.1
is used for quite long time and I think that there should be a number
of existing parsers for ASN.1 (it may be worth to find and try them
first).
