DESCRIPTION
The asn package provides partial de- and encoder commands for BER encoded ASN.1 data. It can also be
used for decoding DER, which is a restricted subset of BER.
ASN.1 is a standard Abstract Syntax Notation, and BER are its Basic Encoding Rules.
See http://asn1.elibel.tm.fr/en/standards/index.htm for more information about the standard.
Also see http://luca.ntop.org/Teaching/Appunti/asn1.html for A Layman's Guide to a Subset of ASN.1,
BER, and DER, an RSA Laboratories Technical Note by Burton S. Kaliski Jr. (Revised November 1, 1993).
A text version of this note is part of the module sources and should be read by any implementor.

::asn::asnNumericString string
Returns the string encoded as ASN.1 NumericString. Raises an error if the string contains
characters other than decimal numbers and space.
::asn::asnPrintableString string
Returns the string encoding as ASN.1 PrintableString. Raises an error if the string contains
characters which are not allowed by the Printable String datatype. The allowed characters are
A-Z, a-z, 0-9, space, apostrophe, colon, parentheses, plus, minus, comma, period, forward
slash, question mark, and the equals sign.
::asn::asnIA5String string
Returns the string encoded as ASN.1 IA5String. Raises an error if the string contains any
characters outside of the US-ASCII range.
::asn::asnBMPString string
Returns the string encoded as ASN.1 Basic Multilingual Plane string (Which is essentialy big-endian bigendian

::asn::asnUTF8String string
Returns the string encoded as UTF8 String. Note that some legacy applications such as Windows
CryptoAPI do not like UTF8 strings. Use BMPStrings if you are not sure.
::asn::asnString string
Returns an encoded form of string, choosing the most restricted ASN.1 string type possible. If
the string contains non-ASCII characters, then there is more than one string type which can be
used. See ::asn::defaultStringType.
::asn::defaultStringType ?type?
Selects the string type to use for the encoding of non-ASCII strings. Returns current default
when called without argument. If the argument type is supplied, it should be either UTF8 or
BMP to choose UTF8String or BMPString respectively.
DECODER
General notes:
[1] Nearly all decoder commands take two arguments. These arguments are variable names, except for
::asn::asnGetResponse. The first variable contains the encoded ASN value to decode at the
beginning, and more, and the second variable is where the value is stored to. The remainder of
the input after the decoded value is stored back into the datavariable.
[2] After extraction the data variable is always modified first, before by writing the extracted
value to its variable. This means that if both arguments refer to the same variable, it will
always contain the extracted value after the call, and not the remainder of the input.
::asn::asnPeekByte data_var byte_var
Retrieve the first byte of the data, without modifing data_var. This can be used to check for
implicit tags.
::asn::asnGetLength data_var length_var
Decode the length information for a block of BER data. The tag has already to be removed from
the data.
::asn::asnGetResponse chan data_var
Reads an encoded ASN sequence from the channel chan and stores it into the variable named by
data_var.
::asn::asnGetInteger data_var int_var
Assumes that an encoded integer value is at the front of the data stored in the variable named
data_var, extracts and stores it into the variable named by int_var. Additionally removes all
bytes associated with the value from the data for further processing by the following decoder
commands.
::asn::asnGetEnumeration data_var enum_var
Assumes that an enumeration id is at the front of the data stored in the variable named
data_var, and stores it into the variable named by enum_var. Additionally removes all bytes
associated with the value from the data for further processing by the following decoder com-mands. commands.
mands.
::asn::asnGetOctetString data_var string_var
Assumes that a string is at the front of the data stored in the variable named data_var, and
stores it into the variable named by string_var. Additionally removes all bytes associated
with the value from the data for further processing by the following decoder commands.
::asn::asnGetString data_var string_var ?type_var?
Decodes a user-readable string. This is a convenience function which is able to automatically
distinguish all supported ASN.1 string types and convert the input value appropriately. See
::asn::asnGetPrintableString, ::asnGetIA5String, etc. below for the type-specific conversion
commands.
If the optional third argument type_var is supplied, then the type of the incoming string is
stored in the variable named by it.
The function throws the error "Invalid command name asnGetSomeUnsupportedString" if the unsup-ported unsupported
ported string type Unsupported is encountered. You can create the appropriate function
"asn::asnGetSomeUnsupportedString" in your application if neccessary.
::asn::asnGetNumericString data_var string_var
Assumes that a numeric string value is at the front of the data stored in the variable named
data_var, and stores it into the variable named by string_var. Additionally removes all bytes

commands.
::asn::asnGetBMPString data_var string_var
Assumes that a BMP (two-byte unicode) string value is at the front of the data stored in the
variable named data_var, and stores it into the variable named by string_var, converting it
into a proper Tcl string. Additionally removes all bytes associated with the value from the
data for further processing by the following decoder commands.
::asn::asnGetUTF8String data_var string_var
Assumes that a UTF8 string value is at the front of the data stored in the variable named
data_var, and stores it into the variable named by string_var, converting it into a proper Tcl

Otherwise it is the responsibility of the caller to decode the remainder of the construct
based on the id retrieved by this command, using the decoder commands of this package.
HANDLING TAGS
Working with ASN.1 you often need to decode tagged values, which use a tag thats different from the
universal tag for a type. In those cases you have to replace the tag with the universal tag used for
the type, to decode the value. To decode a tagged value use the ::asn::asnRetag to change the tag to
the appropriate type to use one of the decoders for primitive values. To help with this the module
contains three functions:
::asn::asnPeekTag data_var tag_var tagtype_var constr_var
The ::asn::asnPeekTag command can be used to take a peek at the data and decode the tag value,
without removing it from the data. The tag_var gets set to the tag number, while the tag-type_var tagtype_var
type_var gets set to the class of the tag. (Either UNIVERSAL, CONTEXT, APPLICATION or PRI-VATE). PRIVATE).
VATE). The constr_var is set to 1 if the tag is for a constructed value, and to 0 for not con-structed. constructed.
structed. It returns the length of the tag.
::asn::asnTag tagnumber ?class? ?tagstyle?
The ::asn::asnTag can be used to create a tag value. The tagnumber gives the number of the
tag, while the class gives one of the classes (UNIVERSAL,CONTEXT,APPLICATION or PRIVATE). The
class may be abbreviated to just the first letter (U,C,A,P), default is UNIVERSAL. The
tagstyle is either C for Constructed encoding, or P for primitve encoding. It defaults to P.
You can also use 1 instead of C and 0 instead of P for direct use of the values returned by
::asn::asnPeekTag.
::asn::asnRetag data_var newTag
Replaces the tag in front of the data in data_var with newTag. The new Tag can be created
using the ::asn::asnTag command.
EXAMPLES
Examples for the usage of this package can be found in the implementation of package ldap.
