snacc README ------------ WHAT IS SNACC ? snacc is an ASN.1 compiler that generates C or C++ encode, decode, print and free routines. some of snacc features are: - generates C or C++ BER encode, BER decode, print and free routines. These encode/decode routines are optimized for speed. - ANY DEFINED BY types are supported - parses 1990 ASN.1 (subtyping, IMPORTS/EXPORTS etc.) - minimal support for some macros WHAT IS IN snacc1.0.tar.Z ? (this file is a compressed tar archive) documentation (man page, 100 page manual (latex and postscipt)) C/yacc/lex source for the ASN.1 compiler examples source for C and C++ encode/decode libraries HOW DO I INSTALL IT ? after de-archiving the release (zcat < snacc1.0.tar.Z | tar -xvf -) see the included README files. WHAT WILL IT RUN ON ? snacc has been installed on Sun SPARCs, HP700s, IBM RS 6000s and MIPS machines running Un*x. It should be relatively easy to port it to other machines. Good Luck!
