Think here we are on same page. This is one of the reason's that drives me against binary code gen frameworks. They are good if you start from scratch. And most of time and in most of the cases, we deal with standard protocols :-( Was wondering, can the protoTiger plugin be enhanced to address this need? It will be very challenging implementation. The code generation part is there, we use a EBNF parser (could be true for ASN as well), and somehow gel them together. Or something like, you provide RFC, the plugin/wizard should ask you for which codec to generate, or some kind of template can be used for codec generation Hmm... I should have taken Eclipse plugins seriously :-( - ashish
