OSS ASN.1 Tools for Java

The OSS ASN.1 Tools for Java , a powerful development package for building Java applications using ASN.1, delivers speed, flexibility, and a rich feature set.

This flexible product features a powerful compiler; a runtime library with high performance encoder/decoder engines supporting ASN.1 BER, CER, DER, PER, XER, CXER, E-XER; and a number of utilities to simplify and speed your development. J2ME CLDC support means you can now develop ASN.1 applications in Java for resource-constrained environments.

The OSS/Java compiler accepts one or more input files, each containing one or more ASN.1 modules. The compiler verifies the ASN.1 specification; and generates informative diagnostic messages, Java classes for inclusion in your application, optional XSL stylesheets and/or DTD for XML encodings, and an optional ASN.1 output listing. Meeting the needs of today's developers, OSS' comprehensive compiler supports values, extensible types, and information object sets - must-have features if you need automatic decoding, or ASN.1 version handling. The compiler supports ASN.1:1990, and ASN.1:2002.

The OSS Java Runtime Libraries provide encoding and decoding functions. Both the OSS encoder and decoder possess a wealth of tracing, error trapping, diagnostic and recovery capabilities, which can be dynamically enabled or disabled making application development and debugging easier.
