Receiving ASN.1 BER encoded messages over TCP/IP with CIS

[Marc Pleijers]

Hi Forum,

From one of our customers we got the following case:

They want to connect a system with Cloverleaf which sends ASN.1 BER encoded messages over TCP/IP. Cloverleaf will receive those ASN.1 BER encoded messages. These messages also need to be translated to XML and delivered to a Web Service.

Does anyone have experience with handling ASN.1 BER encoded messages over TCP/IP ?

We are especially interested in:

 – TCP/IP settings

 – How to decode BER

 – A way to create a Format out of the ASN.1 structure (what type of format to use) because of the translation to XML

 – Any examples, best practices, pitt falls  etc.

Thanks in advance for your response.
