RFC 4912 Abstract Syntax Notation X July 20071. Introduction A full parser for the Abstract Syntax Notation One (ASN.1) language [X.680][X.680-1][X.681][X.682][X.683] is difficult to implement due to numerous ambiguities in the notation. For example, certain notations for a Value are syntactically indistinguishable from notation for a ValueSet, Object, ObjectSet, DummyReference, or SimpleTableConstraint. An ObjectClassAssignment, ObjectAssignment, or ObjectSetAssignment resembles respectively a TypeAssignment, ValueAssignment, or ValueSetTypeAssignment. A FixedTypeValueFieldSpec or FixedTypeValueSetFieldSpec resembles respectively an ObjectFieldSpec or ObjectSetFieldSpec, and an ObjectClassFieldType resembles InformationFromObjects notation. In general, such ambiguities can only be resolved once the entire specification has been parsed. There are other notations that are not mutually ambiguous but still require several lexical tokens to be scanned before they can be distinguished from each other. The difficulty of parsing ASN.1 is an impediment to its wider adoption. This document defines a semantically equivalent Extensible Markup Language (XML) [XML10][XML11] representation for ASN.1 specifications called Abstract Syntax Notation X (ASN.X). An ASN.X module is a well-formed and valid XML document conforming to XML namespaces [XMLNS10][XMLNS11]. ASN.X completely avoids the inherent ambiguities of the ASN.1 language; therefore, specifications written in ASN.X are much easier to parse and manage than original ASN.1 specifications. For example, any conformant XML processor forms the basis of an ASN.1 toolkit. ASN.X, together with the Robust XML Encoding Rules (RXER) [RXER], constitutes a schema language for XML documents that offers, through other ASN.1 encoding rules, alternative compact binary encodings for XML instance documents conforming to an ASN.X specification. ASN.X definitions can also incorporate type, element, and attribute definitions from XML Schema [XSD1] documents, RELAX NG [RNG] documents, or Document Type Definitions (DTDs) [XML10][XML11]. ASN.X is defined in terms of rules for translating from an ASN.1 specification. This does not preclude an ASN.X module being written directly without a pre-existing ASN.1 module; however, such an ASN.X module is considered valid if and only if there exists, in principle, an ASN.1 module that when translated would yield the ASN.X module. The format for ASN.X has also been designed so that the content of an ASN.X module conforms to the RXER encoding of an abstract value of an ASN.1 type, the ModuleDefinition type, presented inAppendix A. This means that it is possible to decode an ASN.X module using an RXER decoder and then re-encode the abstract value (for storage orLegg Experimental [Page 4]
RFC 4912 Abstract Syntax Notation X July 2007 transmission) using any of the other encoding rules for ASN.1. Thus, the "X" in ASN.X can be regarded as standing for either XML or RXER, or more generally, for any set of ASN.1 encoding rules. The ASN.X translation of the ASN.1 module inAppendix A is presented inAppendix B.2. Conventions The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", and "MAY" in this document are to be interpreted as described inBCP 14,RFC 2119 [BCP14]. The key word "OPTIONAL" is exclusively used with its ASN.1 meaning. Throughout this document "type" shall be taken to mean an ASN.1 type, and "value" shall be taken to mean an ASN.1 abstract value. A reference to an ASN.1 production [X.680] (e.g., Type, NamedType) is a reference to the text in an ASN.1 specification corresponding to that production. The description of the translation of an ASN.1 module into an ASN.X module makes use of definitions from the XML Information Set (Infoset) [INFOSET]. In particular, information item property names follow the Infoset convention of being shown in square brackets, e.g., [local name]. Literal values of Infoset properties are enclosed in double quotes; however, the double quotes are not part of the property values. In the sections that follow, "information item" will be abbreviated to "item", e.g., "element information item" is abbreviated to "element item". Element items will be referred to by their [local name] in angle brackets, e.g., "the <type> element item" means the element item with the [local name] "type". Attribute items will be referred to by their [local name], e.g., "the type attribute item" means the attribute item with the [local name] "type". This document uses the namespace prefix "asnx:" to stand for the namespace name "urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:asnx", though in practice any valid namespace prefix is permitted in ASN.X. Encoding instructions [X.680-1] referenced by name in this specification are encoding instructions for RXER [RXEREI]. The associated provisions do not apply to encoding instructions for other encoding rules that happen to have the same name. Code points for characters [UNICODE] are expressed using the Unicode convention U+n, where n is four to six hexadecimal digits, e.g., the space character is U+0020.Legg Experimental [Page 5]
RFC 4912 Abstract Syntax Notation X July 20073. General Considerations ASN.X is defined in terms of rules for translating an ASN.1 module into a synthetic Infoset. This synthetic Infoset is then serialized into a well-formed and valid XML document (the ASN.X module) in the same manner that the synthetic Infoset for a non-canonical RXER encoding is serialized into an XML document (seeSection 6.12 of the specification for RXER [RXER]). Aside: The serialization permits CDATA sections, character references, and parsed entity references. However, note that an ASN.X module may be transferred as data in a protocol and that some protocols disallow entity references. Apart from the [document element] of the document item for an ASN.X module, the translation of some ASN.1 construct belongs to the [children] or [attributes] of an enclosing element item. Where the translation of the construct is an element item, it is appended to the [children] of the enclosing element item. Elements MUST be appended to the [children] of the enclosing element item in the order described. Translators MAY add white space character items (i.e., U+0020, U+0009, U+000D and U+000A) to the [children] of any element item (to improve the layout) except element items with the [local name] "literalValue", "fieldName", or "restrictBy". Aside: White space in the [children] of <fieldName> and <restrictBy> element items is explicitly covered under their respective descriptions. Where the translation of the construct is an attribute item, it is added to the [attributes] of the enclosing element item. The order of attribute items is not significant. Translators MAY add leading and trailing white space characters to the [normalized value] of any attribute item except an attribute item with the [local name] "literalValue". Aside: An attribute or element item with the [local name] "literalValue" holds an RXER Infoset translation of an abstract value, and white space characters may be significant in that abstract value. In most cases, RXER itself permits optional leading and trailing white space characters in the Infoset translation. Translators MAY add comment and processing instruction (PI) items to the [children] of any element item except an element item with the [local name] "literalValue".Legg Experimental [Page 6]
RFC 4912 Abstract Syntax Notation X July 2007 Aside: In most cases, RXER itself permits comment and PI items in the [children] of the element items with the [local name] "literalValue". Aside: Note that an ASN.X module may be transferred as data in a protocol and that some protocols disallow processing instructions. The [in-scope namespaces] and [namespace attributes] for <literalValue> and <restrictBy> element items are determined according toSection 6.10 of the specification for RXER [RXER]. The [in-scope namespaces] and [namespace attributes] for other element items in the translation are determined according toSection 6.2.2.1 of the specification for RXER. The [namespace name] of any element item or attribute item generated by the translation from an ASN.1 specification has no value unless specified otherwise. In those cases where the [namespace name] of an element item has a value, the [prefix] of the element item is determined according toSection 6.2.2.2 of the specification for RXER. In those cases where the [namespace name] of an attribute item has a value, the [prefix] of the attribute item is determined according toSection 6.2.3.1 of the specification for RXER. Aside: Non-canonical RXER allows all valid namespace prefixes and all valid placements for their corresponding namespace declaration attributes. Whenever an element item is added to the [children] of an enclosing element item, the enclosing element item becomes the [parent] of the element item. Whenever an attribute item is added to the [attributes] of an element item, the element item becomes the [owner element] of the attribute item. For each attribute item, the [specified] property is set to true, the [attribute type] has no value, and the value of the [references] property is set to unknown.3.1. Annotations In a number of places, as indicated in subsequent sections, the translator is permitted to add an element item with the [local name] "annotation". The [children] and [attributes] of the <annotation> element item are at the discretion of the translator. Typical uses of the <annotation> element item would be to hold comments from the ASN.1 specification that are normative in nature, e.g., a comment in a user-defined constraint, or to hold directives for an ASN.1 compiler.Legg Experimental [Page 7]
RFC 4912 Abstract Syntax Notation X July 2007 Free text or XML comments in an <annotation> element will be preserved in a Canonical RXER (CRXER) encoding [RXER] (because the corresponding ASN.1 type for the <annotation> element item is the Markup type [RXER]), while XML comments outside <annotation> elements will not be preserved. Vendors using the <annotation> element items to hold ASN.1 compiler directives (as attributes or child elements of the <annotation> element) SHOULD use element or attribute names that are qualified with a namespace name specific to the vendor.4. ModuleDefinition Translation The translation of a ModuleDefinition [X.680] (an ASN.1 module) is an element item with the [local name] "module" and the [namespace name] "urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:asnx" (i.e., an <asnx:module> element item). The element item is typically the [document element] of a document item. An attribute item with the [local name] "format" and [normalized value] "1.0" MAY be added to the [attributes] of the <asnx:module> element item. An ASN.1 module has a schema identity URI if it contains a SCHEMA-IDENTITY encoding instruction, in which case the schema identity URI is the character string specified by the AnyURIValue of the SCHEMA-IDENTITY encoding instruction. If the ASN.1 module being translated has a schema identity URI, then an attribute item with the [local name] "schemaIdentity" SHALL be added to the [attributes] of the <asnx:module> element item. The [normalized value] of this attribute item is the schema identity URI of the module. If the target namespace [RXEREI] for the ASN.1 module is not absent, then an attribute item with the [local name] "targetNamespace" SHALL be added to the [attributes] of the <asnx:module> element item. The [normalized value] of this attribute item is the target namespace of the module. Aside: An ASN.1 module has a target namespace if it contains a TARGET-NAMESPACE encoding instruction. If the ASN.1 module contains a TARGET-NAMESPACE encoding instruction that specifies a Prefix, then an attribute item with the [local name] "targetPrefix" SHALL be added to the [attributes] of theLegg Experimental [Page 8]
RFC 4912 Abstract Syntax Notation X July 2007 <asnx:module> element item. The [normalized value] of this attribute item is the character string specified by the NCNameValue in the Prefix. In examples in the remainder of this document, the namespace prefix "tns:" is used to stand for the target namespace of the module being translated. An attribute item with the [local name] "name" SHALL be added to the [attributes] of the <asnx:module> element item. The [normalized value] of this attribute item is the modulereference in the ModuleIdentifier in the ModuleDefinition. If the DefinitiveIdentifier in the ModuleIdentifier in the ModuleDefinition is not empty, then an attribute item with the [local name] "identifier" SHALL be added to the [attributes] of the <asnx:module> element item. The [normalized value] of this attribute item is the RXER character data translation [RXER] of the DefinitiveIdentifier. If the TagDefault in the ModuleDefinition is empty, then an attribute item with the [local name] "tagDefault" and [normalized value] "explicit" SHALL be added to the [attributes] of the <asnx:module> element item. If the TagDefault in the ModuleDefinition is not empty and the first keyword in the TagDefault is not "AUTOMATIC", then an attribute item with the [local name] "tagDefault" SHALL be added to the [attributes] of the <asnx:module> element item. The [normalized value] of this attribute item is the first keyword in the TagDefault with all letters downcased, i.e., "explicit" or "implicit". If the TagDefault in the ModuleDefinition is not empty and the first keyword in the TagDefault is "AUTOMATIC", then an attribute item with the [local name] "tagDefault" and [normalized value] "automatic" MAY be added to the [attributes] of the <asnx:module> element item. If the ExtensionDefault in the ModuleDefinition is not empty, then an attribute item with the [local name] "extensibilityImplied" and [normalized value] "true" or "1" SHALL be added to the [attributes] of the <asnx:module> element item. If the ExtensionDefault in the ModuleDefinition is empty, then an attribute item with the [local name] "extensibilityImplied" and [normalized value] "false" or "0" MAY be added to the [attributes] of the <asnx:module> element item.Legg Experimental [Page 9]
RFC 4912 Abstract Syntax Notation X July 2007 An element item with the [local name] "annotation" MAY be added to the [children] of the <asnx:module> element item. The translation of each Assignment in the AssignmentList in the ModuleBody in the ModuleDefinition of the module being translated SHALL be appended to the [children] of the <asnx:module> element item. If the EncodingControlSections instance in the ModuleDefinition contains an EncodingControlSection for RXER, then the translation of each NamedType in a TopLevelComponent [RXEREI] nested in the EncodingInstructionAssignmentList SHALL be added to the [children] of the <asnx:module> element item. The relative order of the top-level components [RXEREI] SHOULD be preserved in the translation; however, the translations of the top-level components MAY be interspersed with the translations of the assignments in the AssignmentList. The translation of the EncodingControlSections instance in the ModuleDefinition of the module being translated SHALL be appended to the [children] of the <asnx:module> element item. Example MyModule DEFINITIONS IMPLICIT TAGS EXTENSIBILITY IMPLIED ::= BEGIN MyType ::= INTEGER ENCODING-CONTROL RXER SCHEMA-IDENTITY "http://example.com/id/MyModule" TARGET-NAMESPACE "http://example.com/ns/MyModule" COMPONENT myElement INTEGER END <asnx:module xmlns:asnx="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:asnx" name="MyModule" schemaIdentity="http://example.com/id/MyModule" targetNamespace="http://example.com/ns/MyModule" tagDefault="implicit" extensibilityImplied="true"> <namedType name="MyType" type="asnx:INTEGER"/>Legg Experimental [Page 10]
RFC 4912 Abstract Syntax Notation X July 2007 <element name="myElement" type="asnx:INTEGER"/> </asnx:module>5. Translation of Assignments5.1. Referencing Named Constructs An Assignment in ASN.1 associates a reference name with a Type, Value, ValueSet, ObjectClass, Object, or ObjectSet. For ASN.X, an Assignment is also regarded as associating an expanded name [XMLNS10][XMLNS11] with the Type, Value, ValueSet, ObjectClass, Object, or ObjectSet. ASN.X uses these expanded names, rendered as qualified names [XMLNS10][XMLNS11], in place of the references in an ASN.1 specification. In every case, the local name of the expanded name is the typereference, valuereference, objectclassreference, objectreference, or objectsetreference in the Assignment (i.e., the [normalized value] of the name attribute item in the translation of the Assignment, ignoring white space characters). If the target namespace of the ASN.1 module in which the Assignment is defined is not absent, then the namespace name of the expanded name is that target namespace; otherwise, the namespace name of the expanded name has no value. When the expanded name is rendered as a qualified name, the namespace prefix is determined according toSection 6.7.11.1 of the specification for RXER [RXER]. If an ASN.1 specification contains two or more modules where the target namespace is absent, then there exists the possibility that the expanded names defined by the ASN.X translations of those modules are not distinct. The expanded names are not distinct if: (1) two or more type or value set assignments define the same typereference, or (2) two or more value assignments define the same valuereference, or (3) two or more object class assignments define the same objectclassreference, or (4) two or more object assignments define the same objectreference, or (5) two or more object set assignments define the same objectsetreference, orLegg Experimental [Page 11]
RFC 4912 Abstract Syntax Notation X July 2007 (6) two or more top-level element components [RXEREI] have the same local name, or (7) two or more top-level attribute components [RXEREI] have the same local name. If the expanded names are not distinct, then an unambiguous translation into ASN.X does not exist unless each of the modules has a SCHEMA-IDENTITY encoding instruction. Consequently, if two or more modules where the target namespace is absent are being translated into ASN.X and the reference names defined in those modules will not be distinct, then as a local action prior to the translation, a SCHEMA-IDENTITY encoding instruction MUST be added to each of the modules that defines one or more of the indistinct expanded names and that does not already have a SCHEMA-IDENTITY encoding instruction. The character string (a URI) specified by the AnyURIValue of each added SCHEMA-IDENTITY encoding instruction is freely chosen by the translator, subject to the condition that these character strings are distinct [RXEREI]. Aside: Although this means that different translators might produce ASN.X modules that are syntactically different for any given ASN.1 module, those ASN.X modules will be semantically equivalent to each other and to the original ASN.1 module. TARGET-NAMESPACE and SCHEMA-IDENTITY encoding instructions are RECOMMENDED for every ASN.1 module.5.2. Importing Namespaces An Assignment is referenced from an ASN.X module if its associated expanded name appears as a qualified name in the [normalized value] of an attribute item with the [local name] "type", "value", "class", "object", or "objectSet". These references are categorized as direct references. An Assignment or top-level component is also referenced from an ASN.X module if its expanded name appears as a qualified name in the [normalized value] of an attribute item with the [local name] "ref". This reference is only categorized as direct if the ref attribute is not the result of the translation of a DefinedType subject to a TYPE-REF encoding instruction or a NamedType subject to an ATTRIBUTE-REF or ELEMENT-REF encoding instruction. Aside: In the case of an indirect reference, an attribute item with the [local name] "embedded" and [normalized value] "true" or "1" will also be present.Legg Experimental [Page 12]
RFC 4912 Abstract Syntax Notation X July 2007 Definition (external module): An external module is any module other than the module being translated and the AdditionalBasicDefinitions module [RXER]. Aside: The AdditionalBasicDefinitions module is always assumed to be imported, as are all the built-in types and object classes of ASN.1. An element item with the [local name] "import" SHALL be added to the [children] of the <asnx:module> element item for each external module containing Assignments or top-level components that are directly referenced from the ASN.X module. An <import> element item MAY be added to the [children] of the <asnx:module> element item for any other external module. An attribute item with the [local name] "name" SHOULD be added to the [attributes] of the <import> element item. The [normalized value] of this attribute item is the modulereference in the ModuleIdentifier in the ModuleDefinition of the external module. If the DefinitiveIdentifier in the ModuleIdentifier in the ModuleDefinition of the external module is not empty, then an attribute item with the [local name] "identifier" SHALL be added to the [attributes] of the <import> element item. The [normalized value] of this attribute item is the RXER character data translation of the DefinitiveIdentifier. If the external module has a schema identity URI, then an attribute item with the [local name] "schemaIdentity" SHALL be added to the [attributes] of the <import> element item. The [normalized value] of this attribute item is the schema identity URI of the external module. If the target namespace of the external module is not absent, then an attribute item with the [local name] "namespace" SHALL be added to the [attributes] of the <import> element item. The [normalized value] of this attribute item is the target namespace of the external module. An attribute item with the [local name] "schemaLocation" MAY be added to the [attributes] of the <import> element item. The [normalized value] of this attribute item is a URI [URI] indicating the physical location of the ASN.X translation of the external module. The <import> element items MUST follow an <annotation> element item (if present) and MUST precede any other element items in the [children] of the <asnx:module> element item.Legg Experimental [Page 13]
RFC 4912 Abstract Syntax Notation X July 2007 Note that because of the way parameterized references are expanded in ASN.X (seeSection 13), the modules in the Imports in the ModuleBody in the ModuleDefinition may not correspond exactly to the <import> element items.5.3. TypeAssignment Translation The translation of a TypeAssignment is an element item with the [local name] "namedType". An attribute item with the [local name] "name" SHALL be added to the [attributes] of the <namedType> element item. The [normalized value] of this attribute item is the typereference on the left-hand side of the assignment. An element item with the [local name] "annotation" MAY be added to the [children] of the <namedType> element item. The translation of the Type on the right-hand side of the assignment SHALL be added to the [children] or [attributes] of the <namedType> element item. Example MyType ::= INTEGER <namedType name="MyType" type="asnx:INTEGER"/>5.4. ValueAssignment and XMLValueAssignment Translation The translation of a ValueAssignment is an element item with the [local name] "namedValue". An attribute item with the [local name] "name" SHALL be added to the [attributes] of the <namedValue> element item. The [normalized value] of this attribute item is the valuereference on the left-hand side of the assignment. An element item with the [local name] "annotation" MAY be added to the [children] of the <namedValue> element item. The translation of the Type on the left-hand side of the assignment SHALL be added to the [children] or [attributes] of the <namedValue> element item. The translation of the Value on the right-hand side of the assignment SHALL be added to the [children] or [attributes] of the <namedValue> element item. Example myValue INTEGER ::= 10 <namedValue name="myValue" type="asnx:INTEGER" literalValue="10"/>Legg Experimental [Page 14]
RFC 4912 Abstract Syntax Notation X July 2007 An XMLValueAssignment is converted into the equivalent ValueAssignment and then translated as a ValueAssignment. Note that the ASN.X representation for a Value is unrelated to XMLTypedValue.5.5. ValueSetTypeAssignment Translation The translation of a ValueSetTypeAssignment is an element item with the [local name] "namedValueSet". An attribute item with the [local name] "name" SHALL be added to the [attributes] of the <namedValueSet> element item. The [normalized value] of this attribute item is the typereference on the left-hand side of the assignment. An element item with the [local name] "annotation" MAY be added to the [children] of the <namedValueSet> element item. The translation of the Type on the left-hand side of the assignment SHALL be added to the [children] or [attributes] of the <namedValueSet> element item. The translation of the ValueSet on the right-hand side of the assignment SHALL be added to the [children] of the <namedValueSet> element item. Example MyValueSet INTEGER ::= { 10 } <namedValueSet name="MyValueSet" type="asnx:INTEGER"> <valueSet> <literalValue>10</literalValue> </valueSet> </namedValueSet>5.6. ObjectClassAssignment Translation The translation of an ObjectClassAssignment is an element item with the [local name] "namedClass". An attribute item with the [local name] "name" SHALL be added to the [attributes] of the <namedClass> element item. The [normalized value] of this attribute item is the objectclassreference on the left-hand side of the assignment. An element item with the [local name] "annotation" MAY be added to the [children] of the <namedClass> element item. The translation of the ObjectClass on the right-hand side of the assignment SHALL be added to the [children] or [attributes] of the <namedClass> element item.Legg Experimental [Page 15]
RFC 4912 Abstract Syntax Notation X July 2007 Example MY-CLASS ::= TYPE-IDENTIFIER <namedClass name="MY-CLASS"/>5.7. ObjectAssignment Translation The translation of an ObjectAssignment is an element item with the [local name] "namedObject". An attribute item with the [local name] "name" SHALL be added to the [attributes] of the <namedObject> element item. The [normalized value] of this attribute item is the objectreference on the left-hand side of the assignment. An element item with the [local name] "annotation" MAY be added to the [children] of the <namedObject> element item.

The translation of the Object on the right-hand side of the assignment SHALL be added to the [children] or [attributes] of the <namedObject> element item.

ObjectSetAssignment Translation The translation of an ObjectSetAssignment is an element item with the [local name] "namedObjectSet". An attribute item with the [local name] "name" SHALL be added to the [attributes] of the <namedObjectSet> element item.

Example MyObjectSet TYPE-IDENTIFIER ::= { myObject } <namedObjectSet name="MyObjectSet"> <objectSet> <object ref="tns:myObject"/> </objectSet> </namedObjectSet>5.9. ParameterizedAssignment Translation The translation of an ASN.1 specification into ASN.X replaces any reference to a parameterized definition [X.683] with the definition expanded in-line. Consequently, there is no direct translation for a ParameterizedAssignment, though its definition may come into play in the translation of references to the parameterized definition (seeSection 13).6. Translation of Types The rules for translating the different varieties of Type are detailed in this section. Note that the notation of ASN.1 is ambiguous where a Type is both prefixed [X.680-1] (e.g., tagged) and constrained. For example, the notation "[0] INTEGER (0..10)" could be interpreted as either a tagged ConstrainedType or a constrained TaggedType. For the purposes of the translation into ASN.X, the constraint is assumed to have higher precedence than the prefix, so the above notation would be taken to be a tagged ConstrainedType.6.1. Identifier Replacement Various RXER encoding instructions can be used to override an identifier in an ASN.1 specification with an NCName [XMLNS10]. The NCName is given preeminence in the ASN.X representation, and the identifier is not explicitly given if it is algorithmically related to the NCName. The cases where an NCName overrides an identifier are covered individually in other parts of this specification and make use of the following definition. Definition (reduction): The reduction of an NCName is the string of characters resulting from the following operations performed in order on the NCName:Legg Experimental [Page 17]
RFC 4912 Abstract Syntax Notation X July 2007 (1) replace each full stop ('.', U+002E) and low line ('_', U+005F) character with a hyphen character ('-', U+002D), (2) remove every character except Latin letters (U+0041-U+005A, U+0061-U+007A), decimal digits (U+0030-U+0039), and hyphens (U+002D), (3) remove leading and trailing hyphen characters, (4) replace sequences of two or more hyphen characters with a single hyphen, and (5) convert the first character to lowercase if it is an uppercase letter. Aside: If the reduction of an NCName is not the same as the identifier that the NCName replaces, then the identifier will be explicitly given in the translation into ASN.X.6.2. DefinedType Translation If a Type is a DefinedType in a ReferencedType, then the translation of the Type is the translation of the DefinedType. If a DefinedType is not a ParameterizedType, ParameterizedValueSetType, or DummyReference and is not subject to a TYPE-REF or REF-AS-TYPE encoding instruction, then the translation of the DefinedType is either the attribute form translation of a type reference, or the element form translation of a type reference. The attribute form translation of a type reference is an attribute item with the [local name] "type". The [normalized value] of this attribute item is a qualified name for the expanded name of the referenced type definition (seeSection 5.1). The attribute form translation SHALL NOT be used if this expanded name is not distinct with respect to the current module and the modules referenced by its <import> element items (seeSection 5.1). The element form translation of a type reference is an element item with the [local name] "type". An element item with the [local name] "annotation" MAY be added to the [children] of the <type> element item. An attribute item with the [local name] "ref" SHALL be added to the [attributes] of the <type> element item. The [normalized value] of this attribute item is a qualified name for the expanded name of the referenced type definition. If this expanded name is not distinct with respect to the current module and the modules referenced by its <import> element items, then an attribute item with the [local name] "context" SHALL be added to theLegg Experimental [Page 18]
RFC 4912 Abstract Syntax Notation X July 2007 [attributes] of the <type> element item; otherwise, if the module containing the referenced type definition has a schema identity URI, then an attribute item with the [local name] "context" MAY be added to the [attributes] of the <type> element item. The [normalized value] of this attribute item is the schema identity URI of the module containing the type definition referenced by the DefinedType. Aside: If a reference name is not distinct, then the module containing the referenced definition must have a schema identity URI (seeSection 5.1). An attribute item with the [local name] "embedded" and [normalized value] "false" or "0" MAY be added to the [attributes] of the <type> element item. The translation of the DefinedType is the same whether the type definition is referenced by a typereference or an ExternalTypeReference. If a DefinedType is subject to a TYPE-REF encoding instruction, then the translation of the DefinedType is an element item with the [local name] "type". An element item with the [local name] "annotation" MAY be added to the [children] of the <type> element item. An attribute item with the [local name] "ref" SHALL be added to the [attributes] of the <type> element item. The [normalized value] of this attribute item is the RXER character data translation of the QNameValue in the TYPE-REF encoding instruction. If a ContextParameter is present in the RefParameters in the TYPE-REF encoding instruction, then an attribute item with the [local name] "context" SHALL be added to the [attributes] of the <type> element item. The [normalized value] of this attribute item is the string value of the AnyURIValue in the ContextParameter. An attribute item with the [local name] "embedded" and [normalized value] "true" or "1" SHALL be added to the [attributes] of the <type> element item. Aside: The embedded attribute item indicates whether a type is directly referenced as a DefinedType or indirectly referenced through a TYPE-REF encoding instruction. An ASN.1 type can be referenced either way. Type definitions in other schema languages cannot be directly referenced. If a DefinedType is subject to a REF-AS-TYPE encoding instruction, then the translation of the DefinedType is an element item with the [local name] "type". An element item with the [local name] "annotation" MAY be added to the [children] of the <type> element item. An attribute item with the [local name] "elementType" SHALL be added to the [attributes] of the <type> element item. TheLegg Experimental [Page 19]

The [normalized value] of this attribute item is the string value of the AnyURIValue in the ContextParameter.

Translation of Built-in Types If a Type is a BuiltinType or ReferencedType that is one of the productions in Table 1 inSection 5 of the specification for RXER [RXER], then the translation of the Type is either the attribute form or element form translation of that type.Legg Experimental [Page 20]
RFC 4912 Abstract Syntax Notation X July 2007 The attribute form translation of a Type that is a BuiltinType or ReferencedType that is one of the productions in Table 1 is an attribute item with the [local name] "type". The [normalized value] of this attribute item is a qualified name for the expanded name of the built-in type (seeSection 5 of the specification for RXER [RXER]). The element form translation of a Type that is a BuiltinType or ReferencedType that is one of the productions in Table 1 is an element item with the [local name] "type". An element item with the [local name] "annotation" MAY be added to the [children] of the <type> element item. An attribute item with the [local name] "ref" SHALL be added to the [attributes] of the <type> element item. The [normalized value] of this attribute item is a qualified name for the expanded name of the built-in type.

If the IntegerType is subject to a VALUES encoding instruction, then the [normalized value] of this attribute item is the replacement name [RXEREI] for the identifier in the NamedNumber; otherwise, it is the identifier in the NamedNumber.

An element item with the [local name] "annotation" MAY be added to the [children] of the <type> element item. An element item with the [local name] "enumerated" SHALL be appended to the [children] of the <type> element item. The translation of each EnumerationItem nested in the RootEnumeration in the Enumerations instance in the EnumeratedType SHALL be appended to the [children] of the <enumerated> element item. If an ellipsis ("...") is present in the Enumerations instance, then an element item with the [local name] "extension" SHALL be appended to the [children] of the <enumerated> element item and the translation of the ExceptionSpec (possibly empty) SHALL be added to the [children] of the <extension> element item. If an AdditionalEnumeration is present in the Enumerations instance, then the translation of each EnumerationItem nested in the AdditionalEnumeration SHALL be appended to the [children] of the <extension> element item. The translation of an EnumerationItem is an element item with the [local name] "enumeration". If the EnumerationItem is of the "identifier" form, then an attribute item with the [local name] "name" SHALL be added to the [attributes] of the <enumeration> element item. If the EnumeratedType is subject to a VALUES encoding instruction, then the [normalized value] of this attribute item is the replacement name [RXEREI] for the identifier; otherwise, it is the identifier.

PrefixedType Translation The translation of a PrefixedType [X.680-1] that is a TaggedType is either the short form translation (Section 6.7.1) or long form translation (Section 6.7.2) of the TaggedType. Aside: The short form translation is provided because TaggedType notation is heavily used in existing ASN.1 specifications. The long form translation has the same structure as the translation of an EncodingPrefixedType and can be simplified where there is a series of nested PrefixedType instances.Legg Experimental [Page 25]
RFC 4912 Abstract Syntax Notation X July 2007 If a PrefixedType is an EncodingPrefixedType and the EncodingReference is RXER, or the EncodingReference is empty and the default encoding reference [X.680-1] for the module is RXER, then the translation of the PrefixedType is the translation of the Type in the EncodingPrefixedType. Aside: This is not suggesting that RXER encoding instructions are ignored. Encoding instructions for RXER are not explicitly represented in ASN.X, but rather affect how an ASN.1 module is translated into an ASN.X module (since the content of an ASN.X module is also the RXER encoding of an abstract value of the ModuleDefinition ASN.1 type inAppendix A). The individual effects of RXER encoding instructions on the translation are addressed in other parts of this specification. Encoding instructions for other encoding rules have explicit representations in ASN.X. If a PrefixedType is an EncodingPrefixedType and the EncodingReference is not RXER, or the EncodingReference is empty and the default encoding reference for the module is not RXER, then the translation of the PrefixedType is an element item with the [local name] "prefixed". The translation of the EncodingPrefix in the EncodingPrefixedType SHALL be added to the [children] of the <prefixed> element item. If the EncodingReference of an EncodingPrefix is not empty, then the translation of the EncodingPrefix is an element item with the encodingreference in the EncodingReference as the [local name]. The translation of the EncodingInstruction in the EncodingPrefix SHALL be added to the [children] of this element item. If the EncodingReference of an EncodingPrefix is empty, then the translation of the EncodingPrefix is an element item with the default encoding reference for the module as the [local name]. The translation of the EncodingInstruction in the EncodingPrefix SHALL be added to the [children] of this element item. The EncodingInstruction notation is different for each set of encoding instructions, and their translations into ASN.X are specified in separate documents [GSEREIT][XEREIT]. At the time of writing, only three sets of encoding instructions have been defined (for RXER [RXEREI], GSER [GSEREI], and EXTENDED-XER [X.693-1]). If the child <type> element item of a <prefixed> element item has no attribute items and has a child <prefixed> element item, then that child <type> element item MAY be replaced by the [children] and [attributes] of the inner <prefixed> element item.

An element item with the [local name] "selection" SHALL be appended to the [children] of the <type> element item. The identifier in a SelectionType identifies a NamedType in the definition of the Type in the SelectionType.

Translation of Combining Types This section details the translation of the ASN.1 combining types: SET, SEQUENCE, CHOICE, SET OF, and SEQUENCE OF. The combining type definitions all make use of the NamedType notation.6.12.1. NamedType Translation A NamedType is translated in one of three ways depending on the context. These are the normal translation, the member translation, and the item translation. These translations are not interchangeable. One of the three will be explicitly invoked as part of the translation of an enclosing combining type. The normal translation of a NamedType is an element item with the [local name] determined as follows: (1) if the NamedType is subject to an ATTRIBUTE or ATTRIBUTE-REF encoding instruction, or subject to a COMPONENT-REF encoding instruction that references a top-level NamedType that is subject to an ATTRIBUTE encoding instruction, then the [local name] is "attribute",Legg Experimental [Page 32]
RFC 4912 Abstract Syntax Notation X July 2007 (2) else if the NamedType is subject to a GROUP encoding instruction, then the [local name] is "group", (3) else if the NamedType is subject to a SIMPLE-CONTENT encoding instruction, then the [local name] is "simpleContent", (4) otherwise, the [local name] is "element" or "component" (translator's choice). Aside: The local names "element" and "component" are synonymous. The "component" alternative is offered for specifying applications that don't use RXER (except for the ASN.X specification itself, of course), where referring to parts of an encoding as elements would seem incongruous. The member translation of a NamedType is an element item with the [local name] "member". The item translation of a NamedType is an element item with the [local name] "item". Aside: A Namedtype for which the member or item translation is invoked will never be subject to an ATTRIBUTE, ATTRIBUTE-REF, COMPONENT-REF, GROUP, SIMPLE-CONTENT, or TYPE-AS-VERSION encoding instruction. These encoding instructions are also mutually exclusive [RXEREI]. An element item with the [local name] "annotation" MAY be added to the [children] of the <attribute>, <element>, <component>, <group>, <item>, <member>, or <simpleContent> element item. If a NamedType is subject to a TYPE-AS-VERSION encoding instruction, then an attribute item with the [local name] "typeAsVersion" and [normalized value] "true" or "1" SHALL be added to the <element> or <component> element item. For the normal translation, if a NamedType is not subject to an ATTRIBUTE, ATTRIBUTE-REF, COMPONENT-REF, GROUP, SIMPLE-CONTENT, or TYPE-AS-VERSION encoding instruction, then an attribute item with the [local name] "typeAsVersion" and [normalized value] "false" or "0" MAY be added to the <element> or <component> element item. For the normal, member, and item translations, if a NamedType is not subject to an ATTRIBUTE-REF, COMPONENT-REF, ELEMENT-REF, or REF-AS-ELEMENT encoding instruction, then an attribute item with the [local name] "name" SHALL be added to the [attributes] of the <attribute>, <element>, <component>, <group>, <item>, <member>, orLegg Experimental [Page 33]
RFC 4912 Abstract Syntax Notation X July 2007 <simpleContent> element item. The [normalized value] of this attribute item is the local name of the expanded name of the NamedType [RXEREI]. Aside: If there are no NAME, ATTRIBUTE-REF, COMPONENT_REF, ELEMENT-REF or REF-AS-ELEMENT encoding instructions, then the local name of the expanded name of a NamedType is the same as the identifier in the NamedType. If the reduction of the local name (an NCName) of the expanded name of a NamedType is not the same as the identifier in the NamedType, then an attribute item with the [local name] "identifier" SHALL be added to the [attributes] of the <attribute>, <element>, <component>, <group>, <item>, <member>, or <simpleContent> element item; otherwise, an attribute item with the [local name] "identifier" MAY be added to the [attributes] of the aforementioned element item. The [normalized value] of this attribute item is the identifier in the NamedType. Aside: The identifier attribute is not contingent on there being a name attribute. That is, an element item can have an identifier attribute item without having a name attribute item. If a NamedType is subject to a COMPONENT-REF encoding instruction, then an attribute item with the [local name] "ref" SHALL be added to the [attributes] of the <attribute>, <element>, or <component> element item. The [normalized value] of this attribute item is a qualified name for the expanded name of the top-level NamedType referenced by the encoding instruction. If the expanded name is not distinct with respect to the current module and the modules referenced by its <import> element items (seeSection 5.1), then an attribute item with the [local name] "context" SHALL be added to the [attributes] of the <attribute>, <element>, or <component> element item; otherwise, if the module containing the referenced top-level NamedType has a schema identity URI, then an attribute item with the [local name] "context" MAY be added to the [attributes] of the <attribute>, <element>, or <component> element item. The [normalized value] of this attribute item is the schema identity URI of the module containing the referenced top-level NamedType. Aside: If an expanded name is not distinct, then the module containing the referenced top-level NamedType must have a schema identity URI (seeSection 5.1). If a NamedType is subject to a COMPONENT-REF encoding instruction, then an attribute item with the [local name] "embedded" and [normalized value] "false" or "0" MAY be added to the [attributes] of the <attribute>, <element>, or <component> element item.Legg Experimental [Page 34]

The [normalized value] of this attribute item is the RXER character data translation of the QNameValue in the encoding instruction. An attribute item with the [local name] "embedded" and [normalized value] "true" or "1" SHALL be added to the [attributes] of the <attribute>, <element>, or <component> element item. If a NamedType is subject to a REF-AS-ELEMENT encoding instruction, then an attribute item with the [local name] "elementType" SHALL be added to the [attributes] of the <element> or <component> element item. The [normalized value] of this attribute item is the RXER character data translation of the NameValue in the REF-AS-ELEMENT encoding instruction. If a Namespace is present in the REF-AS-ELEMENT encoding instruction, then an attribute item with the [local name] "namespace" SHALL be added to the [attributes] of the <element> or <component> element item. The [normalized value] of this attribute item is the string value of the AnyURIValue in the Namespace. If a ContextParameter is present in the RefParameters in the ATTRIBUTE-REF, ELEMENT-REF, or REF-AS-ELEMENT encoding instruction, then an attribute item with the [local name] "context" SHALL be added to the [attributes] of the <attribute>, <element>, or <component> element item. The [normalized value] of this attribute item is the string value of the AnyURIValue in the ContextParameter. If a NamedType is subject to both an ATTRIBUTE encoding instruction and a VERSION-INDICATOR encoding instruction, then an attribute item with the [local name] "versionIndicator" and [normalized value] "true" or "1" SHALL be added to the <attribute> element item. If a NamedType is subject to an ATTRIBUTE encoding instruction and not subject to a VERSION-INDICATOR encoding instruction, then an attribute item with the [local name] "versionIndicator" and [normalized value] "false" or "0" MAY be added to the <attribute> element item. If a NamedType is not subject to an ATTRIBUTE-REF, COMPONENT-REF, ELEMENT-REF, or REF-AS-ELEMENT encoding instruction, then the translation of the Type in the NamedType SHALL be added to the [children] or [attributes] of the <attribute>, <element>, <component>, <group>, <item>, <member>, or <simpleContent> element item.Legg Experimental [Page 35]
RFC 4912 Abstract Syntax Notation X July 2007 If a NamedType is subject to an ATTRIBUTE-REF, COMPONENT-REF, ELEMENT-REF, or REF-AS-ELEMENT encoding instruction, then the translation of each EncodingPrefix (Section 6.7) and Tag (Section 6.7.2) textually within the NamedType SHALL be added in order to the [children] of the <attribute>, <element>, or <component> element item.

RFC 4912 Abstract Syntax Notation X July 2007 If the ExceptionIdentification in a non-empty ExceptionSpec is of the "Type : Value" form, then the translation of the Type SHALL be added to the [children] or [attributes] of the <exception> element item, and the translation of the Value SHALL be added to the [children] or [attributes] of the <exception> element item. Examples !10 <exception type="asnx:INTEGER" literalValue="10"/> !myValue <exception type="asnx:INTEGER" value="tns:myValue"/> !PrintableString:"failure" <exception type="asnx:PrintableString" literalValue="failure"/>7. Translation of Values A Value in an ASN.1 specification is a mix of literal values (e.g., numbers and character strings) and notations for referencing defined values. Likewise, the ASN.X translation of a Value is a mix of markup for literal values and markup for referencing notations (notational values). A Value is categorized by the following definitions. Definition (literal value): A Value is a literal value if and only if it is not a notational value. Definition (notational value): A Value is a notational value if and only if: (1) the Value is a BuiltinValue, and (a) the BuiltinValue is a TaggedValue and the Value in the TaggedValue is a notational value, or (b) the BuiltinValue is a SequenceValue or SetValue with a ComponentValueList that contains a NamedValue where the Value in the NamedValue is a notational value and the translation of the corresponding NamedType (from the governing type of the outer Value) is not an <element> or <component> element item, orLegg Experimental [Page 51]
RFC 4912 Abstract Syntax Notation X July 2007 (c) the BuiltinValue is a ChoiceValue where the Value of the ChoiceValue is a notational value and the translation of the NamedType corresponding to the identifier in the ChoiceValue is not an <element> or <component> element item, or (d) the BuiltinValue is a SequenceOfValue or SetOfValue with a NamedValueList that contains a NamedValue where the Value of the NamedValue is a notational value and the translation of the corresponding NamedType (from the governing type of the outer Value) is not an <element> or <component> element item, or (2) the Value is a ReferencedValue, and (a) the ReferencedValue is a ValueFromObject, or (b) the ReferencedValue is a DefinedValue, and (i) the DefinedValue is a valuereference (not a DummyReference) or an ExternalValueReference, or (ii) the DefinedValue is a DummyReference or ParameterizedValue and the substitute definition for the DummyReference or ParameterizedValue (seeSection 13) is a notational value, or (iii) the DefinedValue is a DummyReference or ParameterizedValue where the translation of the DummyReference or ParameterizedValue will use a fully expanded reference (seeSection 13), or (3) the Value is an ObjectClassFieldValue, and (a) the ObjectClassFieldValue is an OpenTypeFieldVal, or (b) the ObjectClassFieldValue is a FixedTypeFieldVal, and (i) the FixedTypeFieldVal is a BuiltinValue that satisfies case (1), or (ii) the FixedTypeFieldVal is a ReferencedValue that satisfies case (2). A literal value that is a BuiltinValue that is a SequenceValue, SetValue, ChoiceValue, SequenceOfValue, or SetOfValue MAY be translated as a notational value.Legg Experimental [Page 52]
RFC 4912 Abstract Syntax Notation X July 2007 Definition (directly nested): A notational value is directly nested (within a literal value) if the innermost enclosing Value is a literal value.7.1. Translation of Literal Values The translation of a literal value is either the attribute form translation of a literal value, or the element form translation of a literal value. The attribute form translation of a literal value is an attribute item with the [local name] "literalValue". The [normalized value] of this attribute item is the RXER character data translation [RXER] of the literal value. The attribute form translation of a literal value SHALL NOT be used if: (1) the RXER Infoset translation of the literal value is not a character data translation [RXER] or is a character data translation that contains qualified names [XMLNS10][XMLNS11], or (2) attribute form translations of Value have been explicitly disallowed in the context where the literal value appears, or (3) the literal value has a nested notational value. The element form translation of a literal value is an element item with the [local name] "literalValue". The [children] and [attributes] of the <literalValue> element item are set to the RXER Infoset translation of the literal value, except that a value of the EXTERNAL type (or a subtype thereof) is translated according to the associated type defined in Clause 34.5 of X.680 [X.680]. In addition, where the [children] and [attributes] of an element item in the translation correspond to a directly nested notational value, the translation specified inSection 7.2 MUST be used for the [children] and [attributes] of that element item, and an attribute item with the [local name] "literal", [namespace name] "urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:asnx", and [normalized value] "false" or "0" (i.e., asnx:literal="false") MUST be added to the [attributes] of that element item. Each outermost <literalValue> element item is required to be self-contained [RXER]. Aside: An element item is self-contained if all namespace prefixes used by the element item and its contents are declared within the element item.Legg Experimental [Page 53]
RFC 4912 Abstract Syntax Notation X July 2007 Aside: A <literalValue> element item nested within another <literalValue> element item is not required to be self-contained. An attribute item with the [local name] "literal", [namespace name] "urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:asnx" and [normalized value] "true" or "1" (i.e., asnx:literal="true") MAY be added to the [attributes] of the <literalValue> element item and/or any nested element item with content and attributes that correspond to a literal value. Aside: The asnx:literal attribute operates as a switch that indicates whether the content and other attributes of the element containing the attribute are interpreted as ASN.X notation (a notational value) or as an RXER encoding (a literal value). Example zero INTEGER ::= 0 <namedValue name="zero" type="asnx:INTEGER" literalValue="0"/> OR <namedValue name="zero" type="asnx:INTEGER"> <literalValue>0</literalValue> </namedValue> From the perspective of an ASN.X module as the RXER encoding of an ASN.1 value (an abstract value of the ModuleDefinition type inAppendix A), the type of the <literalValue> element is the unconstrained Markup type [RXER], not the governing type of the Value according to the ASN.1 specification. This means that the Infoset representation of the <literalValue> element must be preserved in re-encodings of the ASN.X module. Similarly, the type of the literalValue attribute is a UTF8String, not the governing type of the Value according to the ASN.1 specification. This means that the exact characters of the [normalized value] of the attribute must be preserved in re-encodings of the ASN.X module.7.2. Translation of Notational Values The translation of a notational value is the translation of the BuiltinValue, ReferencedValue, or ObjectClassFieldValue in the notational value. The translation of a ReferencedValue is the translation of the DefinedValue or ValueFromObject in the ReferencedValue.Legg Experimental [Page 54]
RFC 4912 Abstract Syntax Notation X July 2007 The translation for each of these cases is described as creating an element item with the [local name] "value", which is appropriate for a notational value that stands on its own. However, a notational value may also be directly nested within a literal value, in which case the [local name] will be determined according to RXER and the governing ASN.1 type of the enclosing literal value. Aside: In the latter case, the element item will also have a literal attribute item with the [normalized value] "false" or "0". A notational value that is not directly nested within a literal value MAY instead have the [local name] "literalValue" provided an attribute item with the [local name] "literal", [namespace name] "urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:asnx", and [normalized value] "false" or "0" is added to the [attributes] of the <literalValue> element item. Examples nothing INTEGER ::= zero <namedValue name="nothing" type="asnx:INTEGER" value="tns:zero"/> OR <namedValue name="nothing" type="asnx:INTEGER"> <value ref="tns:zero"/><!-- A notational value. --> </namedValue> OR <namedValue name="nothing" type="asnx:INTEGER"> <literalValue xmlns:asnx="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:asnx" xmlns:tns="http://example.com/ns/MyModule" asnx:literal="false" ref="tns:zero"/><!-- A notational value. --> </namedValue> integerList SEQUENCE OF number INTEGER ::= { zero, 3, 7 } <namedValue name="integerList"> <type> <sequenceOf> <element name="number" type="asnx:INTEGER"/> </sequenceOf> </type> <literalValue xmlns:asnx="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:asnx" xmlns:tns="http://example.com/ns/MyModule"> <number asnx:literal="false"Legg Experimental [Page 55]
RFC 4912 Abstract Syntax Notation X July 2007 ref="tns:zero"/><!-- A notational value. --> <number>3</number><!-- A literal value. --> <number>7</number><!-- A literal value. --> </literalValue> </namedValue>7.2.1. DefinedValue Translation If a DefinedValue is a valuereference (not a DummyReference) or an ExternalValueReference, then the translation of the DefinedValue is either the attribute form translation of a value reference, or the element form translation of a value reference. The attribute form translation of a value reference is an attribute item with the [local name] "value". The [normalized value] of this attribute item is a qualified name for the expanded name of the referenced value definition (seeSection 5.1). The attribute form translation SHALL NOT be used if this expanded name is not distinct with respect to the current module and the modules referenced by its <import> element items (seeSection 5.1). The element form translation of a value reference is an element item with the [local name] "value". An element item with the [local name] "annotation" MAY be added to the [children] of the <value> element item. An attribute item with the [local name] "ref" SHALL be added to the [attributes] of the <value> element item. The [normalized value] of this attribute item is a qualified name for the expanded name of the referenced value definition. If this expanded name is not distinct with respect to the current module and the modules referenced by its <import> element items, then an attribute item with the [local name] "context" SHALL be added to the [attributes] of the <value> element item; otherwise, if the module containing the referenced value definition has a schema identity URI, then an attribute item with the [local name] "context" MAY be added to the [attributes] of the <value> element item. The [normalized value] of this attribute item is the schema identity URI of the module containing the value definition referenced by the DefinedValue. Aside: If a reference name is not distinct, then the module containing the referenced definition must have a schema identity URI (seeSection 5.1). Usually the translator is free to choose either an attribute form or element form translation for a DefinedValue; however, in some contexts attribute forms of Value are explicitly disallowed. InLegg Experimental [Page 56]
RFC 4912 Abstract Syntax Notation X July 2007 particular, the attribute form translation SHALL NOT be used for a DefinedValue in a ReferencedValue in a Value that is directly nested in a literal value. If a DefinedValue is a DummyReference or ParameterizedValue, then the translation of the DefinedValue is the translation of that DummyReference or ParameterizedValue (seeSection 13).7.2.2. BuiltinValue Translation The translation of a BuiltinValue is the translation of the ChoiceValue, SequenceValue, SetValue, SequenceOfValue, SetOfValue, or TaggedValue in the BuiltinValue. Aside: There are other possibilities for a BuiltinValue, but these will all be literal values. This section applies to a BuiltinValue that is a notational value. The translation of a TaggedValue is the translation of the Value in the TaggedValue (which is necessarily a notational value). The translation of a ChoiceValue is an element item with the [local name] "value". An element item with the [local name] "annotation" MAY be added to the [children] of the <value> element item. An element item with the same [local name] (i.e., "attribute", "element", "component", "group", or "member") as the translation of the NamedType corresponding to the identifier in the ChoiceValue SHALL be appended to the [children] of the <value> element item. An attribute item with the [local name] "name" SHALL be added to the [attributes] of the <attribute>, <element>, <component>, <group>, or <member> element item. The [normalized value] of this attribute item is a qualified name for the expanded name of the NamedType. The translation of the Value in the ChoiceValue SHALL be added to the [children] or [attributes] of the <attribute>, <element>, <component>, <group>, or <member> element item. The translation of a SequenceValue or SetValue is an element item with the [local name] "value". An element item with the [local name] "annotation" MAY be added to the [children] of the <value> element item. If the SequenceValue or SetValue has a ComponentValueList, then the translation of each NamedValue nested in the ComponentValueList SHALL be appended to the [children] of the <value> element item in the order in which their corresponding NamedType instances appear in the definition of the governing type.Legg Experimental [Page 57]
RFC 4912 Abstract Syntax Notation X July 2007 The translation of a SequenceOfValue or SetOfValue is an element item with the [local name] "value". An element item with the [local name] "annotation" MAY be added to the [children] of the <value> element item. If the SequenceOfValue or SetOfValue has a NamedValueList, then the translation of each NamedValue nested in the NamedValueList SHALL be appended to the [children] of the <value> element item. If the SequenceOfValue or SetOfValue has a ValueList, then an element item with the same [local name] (i.e., "element" or "component") as the element item in the [children] of the <sequenceOf> or <setOf> element item in the translation of the governing type SHALL be appended to the [children] of the <value> element item for each Value nested in the ValueList. An attribute item with the [local name] "name" and [normalized value] "item" SHALL be added to the [attributes] of the <element> or <component> element item. The translation of the Value (from the ValueList) SHALL be added to the [children] or [attributes] of the <element> or <component> element item. The translation of a NamedValue is an element item with the same [local name] as the translation of the corresponding NamedType, i.e., "attribute", "element", "component", "group", "item", or "simpleContent". An attribute item with the [local name] "name" SHALL be added to the [attributes] of the element item. The [normalized value] of this attribute item is a qualified name for the expanded name of the NamedType. The translation of the Value in the NamedValue SHALL be added to the [children] or [attributes] of the element item. Examples -- This is the governing type. MyType ::= SEQUENCE { one [ATTRIBUTE] INTEGER, two INTEGER, three [ATTRIBUTE][LIST] SEQUENCE OF number INTEGER } <namedType name="MyType"> <type> <sequence> <attribute name="one" type="asnx:INTEGER"/> <element name="two" type="asnx:INTEGER"/> <attribute name="three"> <type> <list>Legg Experimental [Page 58]

ValueFromObject Translation The translation of a ValueFromObject is an element item with the [local name] "value". An element item with the [local name] "annotation" MAY be added to the [children] of the <value> element item. An element item with the [local name] "fromObjects" SHALL be appended to the [children] of the <value> element item. The translation of the ReferencedObjects instance in the ValueFromObject SHALL be added to the [children] or [attributes] of the <fromObjects> element item. The translation of the FieldName in the ValueFromObject SHALL be added to the [children] or [attributes] of the <fromObjects> element item.7.2.4. ObjectClassFieldValue Translation If an ObjectClassFieldValue is a BuiltinValue in a FixedTypeFieldVal, then the translation of the ObjectClassFieldValue is the translation of the BuiltinValue. If an ObjectClassFieldValue is a ReferencedValue in a FixedTypeFieldVal, then the translation of the ObjectClassFieldValue is the translation of the ReferencedValue. If an ObjectClassFieldValue is an OpenTypeFieldVal, then the translation of the ObjectClassFieldValue is an element item with the [local name] "value". An element item with the [local name] "annotation" MAY be added to the [children] of the <value> element item. An element item with the [local name] "openTypeValue" SHALL beLegg Experimental [Page 60]
RFC 4912 Abstract Syntax Notation X July 2007 appended to the [children] of the <value> element item. The translation of the Type in the OpenTypeFieldVal SHALL be added to the [children] or [attributes] of the <openTypeValue> element item. The translation of the Value in the OpenTypeFieldVal SHALL be added to the [children] or [attributes] of the <openTypeValue> element item.

Translation of Value Sets The translation of a ValueSet is an element item with the [local name] "valueSet". An element item with the [local name] "annotation" MAY be added to the [children] of the <valueSet> element item. The translation of the ElementSetSpecs instance in the ValueSet SHALL be appended to the [children] of the <valueSet> element item. Example { 1 | 3..7, ..., 9..19 EXCEPT ( 11 | 12 ) } <valueSet> <union> <literalValue>1</literalValue> <range> <minInclusive literalValue="3"/> <maxInclusive literalValue="7"/> </range> </union> <extension> <all> <range> <minInclusive literalValue="9"/> <maxInclusive literalValue="19"/> </range> <except> <union>Legg Experimental [Page 61]
RFC 4912 Abstract Syntax Notation X July 2007 <literalValue>11</literalValue> <literalValue>12</literalValue> </union> </except> </all> </extension> </valueSet>8.1. ElementSetSpecs Translation The translation of an ElementSetSpecs instance where the ellipsis ("...") is not present is the translation of the ElementSetSpec in the RootElementSetSpec. The translation of an ElementSetSpecs instance where the ellipsis ("...") is present is the translation of the ElementSetSpec in the RootElementSetSpec followed by an element item with the [local name] "extension". If an AdditionalElementSetSpec is present in the ElementSetSpecs, then the translation of the ElementSetSpec in the AdditionalElementSetSpec SHALL be added to the [children] of the <extension> element item.8.2. ElementSetSpec Translation If an ElementSetSpec is of the "ALL Exclusions" form, then the translation of the ElementSetSpec is an element item with the [local name] "all". An element item with the [local name] "except" SHALL be added to the [children] of the <all> element item. The translation of the Elements instance in the Exclusions SHALL be added to the [children] of the <except> element item. If an ElementSetSpec is a Unions instance, then the translation of the ElementSetSpec is the translation of the Unions instance. If a Unions instance has only one nested Intersections instance, then the translation of the Unions instance is the translation of that Intersections instance; otherwise, the translation of the Unions instance is an element item with the [local name] "union". In the latter case, the translation of each nested Intersections instance SHALL be appended to the [children] of the <union> element item. If an Intersections instance has only one nested IntersectionElements instance, then the translation of the Intersections instance is the translation of that IntersectionElements instance; otherwise, the translation of the Intersections instance is an element item with the [local name] "intersection". In the latter case, the translation of each nested IntersectionElements instance SHALL be appended to the [children] of the <intersection> element item.Legg Experimental [Page 62]
RFC 4912 Abstract Syntax Notation X July 2007 If an IntersectionElements instance is of the "Elems Exclusions" form, then the translation of the IntersectionElements instance is an element item with the [local name] "all". The translation of the Elements instance in the Elems SHALL be added to the [children] of the <all> element item. An element item with the [local name] "except" SHALL be appended to the [children] of the <all> element item. The translation of the Elements instance in the Exclusions SHALL be added to the [children] of the <except> element item. If an IntersectionElements instance is an Elements instance, then the translation of the IntersectionElements instance is the translation of the Elements instance. The translation of an Elements instance is the translation of the SubtypeElements, ObjectSetElements, or ElementSetSpec in the Elements instance.8.3. SubtypeElements Translation If a SubtypeElements instance is a SingleValue, then the translation of the SubtypeElements instance is the translation of the Value in the SingleValue, except that an attribute form of the Value translation SHALL NOT be used. If a SubtypeElements instance is a ContainedSubtype, then the translation of the SubtypeElements instance is an element item with the [local name] "includes". The translation of the Type in the ContainedSubtype SHALL be added to the [children] or [attributes] of the <includes> element item. If a SubtypeElements instance is a ValueRange, then the translation of the SubtypeElements instance is the translation of the ValueRange. If a SubtypeElements instance is a SizeConstraint, then the translation of the SubtypeElements instance is an element item with the [local name] "size". The translation of the Constraint in the SizeConstraint SHALL be added to the [children] of the <size> element item. If a SubtypeElements instance is a TypeConstraint, then the translation of the SubtypeElements instance is an element item with the [local name] "typeConstraint". The translation of the Type in the TypeConstraint SHALL be added to the [children] or [attributes] of the <typeConstraint> element item.Legg Experimental [Page 63]
RFC 4912 Abstract Syntax Notation X July 2007 If a SubtypeElements instance is a PermittedAlphabet, then the translation of the SubtypeElements instance is an element item with the [local name] "from". The translation of the Constraint in the PermittedAlphabet SHALL be added to the [children] of the <from> element item. If a SubtypeElements instance is an InnerTypeConstraints instance, then the translation of the SubtypeElements instance is the translation of the InnerTypeConstraints instance. If a SubtypeElements instance is a PatternConstraint, then the translation of the SubtypeElements instance is an element item with the [local name] "pattern". The translation of the Value in the PatternConstraint SHALL be added to the [children] or [attributes] of the <pattern> element item.8.3.1. ValueRange Translation The translation of a ValueRange is an element item with the [local name] "range". If the LowerEndpoint in the ValueRange is of the "LowerEndValue <" form, then an element item with the [local name] "minExclusive" SHALL be added to the [children] of the <range> element item. If the LowerEndValue is a Value, then the translation of the Value SHALL be added to the [children] or [attributes] of the <minExclusive> element item. If the LowerEndpoint in the ValueRange is of the "LowerEndValue" form and the LowerEndValue is a Value, then an element item with the [local name] "minInclusive" SHALL be added to the [children] of the <range> element item. The translation of the Value in the LowerEndValue SHALL be added to the [children] or [attributes] of the <minInclusive> element item. If the LowerEndpoint in the ValueRange is of the "LowerEndValue" form and the LowerEndValue is "MIN", then an element item with the [local name] "minInclusive" MAY be added to the [children] of the <range> element item. If the UpperEndpoint in the ValueRange is of the "< UpperEndValue" form, then an element item with the [local name] "maxExclusive" SHALL be added to the [children] of the <range> element item. If the UpperEndValue is a Value, then the translation of the Value SHALL be added to the [children] or [attributes] of the <maxExclusive> element item.Legg Experimental [Page 64]

The translation of the Value in the UpperEndValue SHALL be added to the [children] or [attributes] of the <maxInclusive> element item. If the UpperEndpoint in the ValueRange is of the "UpperEndValue" form and the UpperEndValue is "MAX", then an element item with the [local name] "maxInclusive" MAY be added to the [children] of the <range> element item.

InnerTypeConstraints Translation The translation of an InnerTypeConstraints instance that has a SingleTypeConstraint is an element item with the [local name] "withComponent". The translation of the Constraint in the SingleTypeConstraint SHALL be added to the [children] of the <withComponent> element item. The translation of an InnerTypeConstraints instance that has a MultipleTypeConstraints instance is an element item with the [local name] "withComponents". If the MultipleTypeConstraints instance is a PartialSpecification, then an attribute item with the [local name] "partial" and the [normalized value] "true" or "1" SHALL be added to the [attributes] of the <withComponents> element item.Legg Experimental [Page 65]
RFC 4912 Abstract Syntax Notation X July 2007 If the MultipleTypeConstraints instance is a FullSpecification, then an attribute item with the [local name] "partial" and the [normalized value] "false" or "0" MAY be added to the [attributes] of the <withComponents> element item. The translation of each NamedConstraint nested in the TypeConstraints instance in the FullSpecification or PartialSpecification SHALL be appended to the [children] of the <withComponents> element item. The translation of a NamedConstraint is an element item with the same [local name] (i.e., "attribute", "element", "component", "group", "member", or "simpleContent") as the translation of the NamedType corresponding to the identifier in the NamedConstraint. An attribute item with the [local name] "name" SHALL be added to the [attributes] of the <attribute>, <element>, <component>, <group>, <member>, or <simpleContent> element item. The [normalized value] of this attribute item is a qualified name for the expanded name of the NamedType corresponding to the identifier in the NamedConstraint. If the PresenceConstraint in the ComponentConstraint in the NamedConstraint is not empty, then an attribute item with the [local name] "use" SHALL be added to the [attributes] of the <attribute>, <element>, <component>, <group>, <member>, or <simpleContent> element item. The [normalized value] of this attribute item is the text of the PresenceConstraint with all letters downcased, i.e., either "present", "absent", or "optional". If the ValueConstraint in the ComponentConstraint in the NamedConstraint is not empty, then the translation of the Constraint in the ValueConstraint SHALL be added to the [children] of the <attribute>, <element>, <component>, <group>, <member>, or <simpleContent> element item.9. Translation of Object Classes The translation of an ObjectClass is the translation of the DefinedObjectClass, ObjectClassDefn, or ParameterizedObjectClass in the ObjectClass. The translation of a ParameterizedObjectClass is described inSection 13.9.1. DefinedObjectClass Translation If a DefinedObjectClass is an objectclassreference (not a DummyReference), an ExternalObjectClassReference, or a UsefulObjectClassReference, then the translation of theLegg Experimental [Page 66]
RFC 4912 Abstract Syntax Notation X July 2007 DefinedObjectClass is either the attribute form translation of an object class reference, or the element form translation of an object class reference. The attribute form translation of an object class reference is an attribute item with the [local name] "class". The [normalized value] of this attribute item is a qualified name for the expanded name of the referenced object class definition (seeSection 5.1). In the case of a UsefulObjectClassReference, the namespace name of the expanded name is "urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:asnx", and the local name is either "TYPE-IDENTIFIER" or "ABSTRACT-SYNTAX", as the case may be. The attribute form translation SHALL NOT be used if the expanded name is not distinct with respect to the current module and the modules referenced by its <import> element items (seeSection 5.1). Otherwise, the translator is free to choose either the attribute form or element form translation for an object class reference. The element form translation of an object class reference is an element item with the [local name] "class". An element item with the [local name] "annotation" MAY be added to the [children] of the <class> element item. An attribute item with the [local name] "ref" SHALL be added to the [attributes] of the <class> element item. The [normalized value] of this attribute item is a qualified name for the expanded name of the referenced object class definition. In the case of a UsefulObjectClassReference, the namespace name of the expanded name is "urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:asnx" and the local name is either "TYPE-IDENTIFIER" or "ABSTRACT-SYNTAX", as the case may be. If the expanded name is not distinct with respect to the current module and the modules referenced by its <import> element items, then an attribute item with the [local name] "context" SHALL be added to the [attributes] of the <class> element item; otherwise, if the module containing the referenced object class definition has a schema identity URI, then an attribute item with the [local name] "context" MAY be added to the [attributes] of the <class> element item. The [normalized value] of this attribute item is the schema identity URI of the module containing the referenced object class definition. Aside: If a reference name is not distinct, then the module containing the referenced definition must have a schema identity URI (seeSection 5.1). The translation of the DefinedObjectClass is the same whether the object class definition is referenced by an objectclassreference or an ExternalObjectClassReference. If a DefinedObjectClass is a DummyReference, then the translation of the DefinedObjectClass is the translation of the DummyReference (seeSection 13).Legg Experimental [Page 67]

An element item with the [local name] "annotation" MAY be added to the [children] of the <class> element item. The translation of each FieldSpec in the ObjectClassDefn SHALL be appended to the [children] of the <class> element item.

Translation of Objects The translation of an Object is the translation of the DefinedObject, ObjectDefn, ObjectFromObject, or ParameterizedObject in the Object. The translation of a ParameterizedObject is described inSection 13.10.1. DefinedObject Translation If a DefinedObject is an objectreference (not a DummyReference) or an ExternalObjectReference, then the translation of the DefinedObject is either the attribute form translation of an object reference, or the element form translation of an object reference. The attribute form translation of an object reference is an attribute item with the [local name] "object". The [normalized value] of this attribute item is a qualified name for the expanded name of the referenced object definition (seeSection 5.1). The attribute form translation SHALL NOT be used if this expanded name is not distinct with respect to the current module and the modules referenced by its <import> element items (seeSection 5.1).

If this expanded name is not distinct with respect to the current module and the modules referenced by its <import> element items, then an attribute item with the [local name] "context" SHALL be added to the [attributes] of the <object> element item; otherwise, if the module containing the referenced object definition has a schema identity URI, then an attribute item with the [local name] "context" MAY be added to the [attributes] of the <object> element item. The [normalized value] of this attribute item is the schema identity URI of the module containing the referenced object definition. Aside: If a reference name is not distinct, then the module containing the referenced definition must have a schema identity URI (seeSection 5.1). The translation of the DefinedObject is the same whether the object definition is referenced by an objectreference or an ExternalObjectReference. Usually the translator is free to choose either the attribute form or element form translation for an object reference; however, in some contexts the attribute form is explicitly disallowed. If a DefinedObject is a DummyReference, then the translation of the DefinedObject is the translation of the DummyReference (seeSection 13).10.2. ObjectDefn Translation An ObjectDefn that is a DefinedSyntax is first converted to the equivalent DefaultSyntax and then translated. The translation of an ObjectDefn is an element item with the [local name] "object". An element item with the [local name] "annotation" MAY be added to the [children] of the <object> element item. The translation of each FieldSetting in the DefaultSyntax in the ObjectClassDefn SHALL be appended to the [children] of the <object> element item. The translation of a FieldSetting is an element item with the [local name] "field". An attribute item with the [local name] "name" SHALL be added to the [attributes] of the <field> element item.

ObjectFromObject Translation The translation of an ObjectFromObject is an element item with the [local name] "object".

The translation of the ReferencedObjects instance in the ObjectFromObject SHALL be added to the [children] or [attributes] of the <fromObjects> element item. The translation of the FieldName in the ObjectFromObject SHALL be added to the [children] or [attributes] of the <fromObjects> element item.11. Translation of Object Sets If an ObjectSet matches the form "{ DefinedObjectSet }" (i.e., a DefinedObjectSet in an ObjectSetElements instance in an Elements instance in a lone IntersectionElements instance in a lone Intersections instance in a Unions instance in an ElementSetSpec in a RootElementSetSpec in an ObjectSetSpec without an AdditionalElementSetSpec), then the translator MAY use the translation of the DefinedObjectSet as the translation of the ObjectSet; otherwise, the translation of an ObjectSet is an element item with the [local name] "objectSet". An element item with the [local name] "annotation" MAY be added to the [children] of the <objectSet> element item. The translation of the ObjectSetSpec in the ObjectSet SHALL be appended to the [children] of the <objectSet> element item. Aside: An ObjectSet that is directly a DefinedObjectSet is a notational capability that does not exist in ASN.1, but is allowed in ASN.X to avoid excessive nesting of <objectSet> element items in the expansion of parameterized definitions. If an ObjectSetSpec contains only a RootElementSetSpec, then the translation of the ObjectSetSpec is the translation of the ElementSetSpec in the RootElementSetSpec.Legg Experimental [Page 80]
RFC 4912 Abstract Syntax Notation X July 2007 If an ObjectSetSpec contains a RootElementSetSpec and an ellipsis ("..."), then the translation of the ObjectSetSpec is the translation of the ElementSetSpec in the RootElementSetSpec followed by an element item with the [local name] "extension". If an AdditionalElementSetSpec is present, then the translation of the ElementSetSpec in the AdditionalElementSetSpec SHALL be added to the [children] of the <extension> element item. If an ObjectSetSpec does not contain a RootElementSetSpec, then the translation of the ObjectSetSpec is an element item with the [local name] "extension". If an AdditionalElementSetSpec is present, then the translation of the ElementSetSpec in the AdditionalElementSetSpec SHALL be added to the [children] of the <extension> element item. Nested within the ElementSetSpec will be one or more ObjectSetElements instances.11.1. DefinedObjectSet Translation If a DefinedObjectSet is an objectsetreference (not a DummyReference) or an ExternalObjectSetReference, then the translation of the DefinedObjectSet is either the attribute form translation of an object set reference, or the element form translation of an object set reference. The attribute form translation of an object set reference is an attribute item with the [local name] "objectSet". The [normalized value] of this attribute item is a qualified name for the expanded name of the referenced object set definition (seeSection 5.1). The attribute form translation SHALL NOT be used if this expanded name is not distinct with respect to the current module and the modules referenced by its <import> element items (seeSection 5.1). The element form translation of an object set reference is an element item with the [local name] "objectSet". An element item with the [local name] "annotation" MAY be added to the [children] of the <objectSet> element item. An attribute item with the [local name] "ref" SHALL be added to the [attributes] of the <objectSet> element item. The [normalized value] of this attribute item is a qualified name for the expanded name of the referenced object set definition. If this expanded name is not distinct with respect to the current module and the modules referenced by its <import> element items, then an attribute item with the [local name] "context" SHALL be added to the [attributes] of the <objectSet> element item; otherwise, if the module containing the referenced object set definition has a schema identity URI, then an attribute item with the [local name] "context"Legg Experimental [Page 81]
RFC 4912 Abstract Syntax Notation X July 2007 MAY be added to the [attributes] of the <objectSet> element item. The [normalized value] of this attribute item is the schema identity URI of the module containing the referenced object set definition. Aside: If a reference name is not distinct, then the module containing the referenced definition must have a schema identity URI (seeSection 5.1). The translation of the DefinedObjectSet is the same whether the object definition is referenced by an objectsetreference or an ExternalObjectSetReference. Usually the translator is free to choose either the attribute form or element form translation for an object set reference; however, in some contexts the attribute form is explicitly disallowed. If a DefinedObjectSet is a DummyReference, then the translation of the DefinedObjectSet is the translation of the DummyReference (seeSection 13).11.2. ObjectSetElements Translation If an ObjectSetElements instance is an Object, then the translation of the ObjectSetElements instance is the translation of the Object, except that the attribute form of the DefinedObject translation SHALL NOT be used if the Object is a DefinedObject. If an ObjectSetElements instance is a DefinedObjectSet, then the translation of the ObjectSetElements instance is the translation of the DefinedObjectSet, except that the attribute form of the DefinedObjectSet translation SHALL NOT be used. If an ObjectSetElements instance is an ObjectSetFromObjects, then the translation of the ObjectSetElements instance is the translation of the ObjectSetFromObjects. If an ObjectSetElements instance is a ParameterizedObjectSet, then the translation of the ObjectSetElements instance is the translation of the ParameterizedObjectSet (seeSection 13). Aside: The in-line expansion of a ParameterizedObjectSet results in an ObjectSet. An ObjectSetElements instance that is an ObjectSet is a notational capability that does not exist in ASN.1, but is allowed in ASN.X to avoid the need to manufacture a reference name for the expanded parameterized definition.Legg Experimental [Page 82]
RFC 4912 Abstract Syntax Notation X July 200711.2.1. ObjectSetFromObjects Translation The translation of an ObjectSetFromObjects instance is an element item with the [local name] "objectSet". An element item with the [local name] "annotation" MAY be added to the [children] of the <objectSet> element item. An element item with the [local name] "fromObjects" SHALL be appended to the [children] of the <objectSet> element item. The translation of the ReferencedObjects instance in the ObjectSetFromObjects SHALL be added to the [children] or [attributes] of the <fromObjects> element item. The translation of the FieldName in the ObjectSetFromObjects SHALL be added to the [children] or [attributes] of the <fromObjects> element item.12. Translation of Information From Objects If a ReferencedObjects instance is a DefinedObject (not a DummyReference), then the translation of the ReferencedObjects instance is the translation of the DefinedObject. If a ReferencedObjects instance is a DefinedObjectSet (not a DummyReference), then the translation of the ReferencedObjects instance is the translation of the DefinedObjectSet. If a ReferencedObjects instance is a DummyReference, ParameterizedObject, or ParameterizedObjectSet, then the translation of the ReferencedObjects instance is the translation of that DummyReference, ParameterizedObject, or ParameterizedObjectSet (seeSection 13). Aside: The in-line expansion of a ParameterizedObject or ParameterizedObjectSet results in an Object or ObjectSet, respectively. A ReferencedObjects instance that is an Object or ObjectSet is a notational capability that does not exist in ASN.1, but is allowed in ASN.X to avoid the need to manufacture a reference name for an expanded parameterized definition.13. Translation of Parameterized Definitions The translation of an ASN.1 specification into ASN.X replaces any DummyReference [X.683] or reference to a parameterized definition [X.683] with the definition expanded in-line (except for a special case involving recursive parameterized types). For example, a ParameterizedObject is replaced by the Object on the right-hand side of the referenced ParameterizedObjectAssignment.Legg Experimental [Page 83]
RFC 4912 Abstract Syntax Notation X July 2007 The definition that substitutes for a DummyReference or parameterized reference (e.g., the Object that substitutes for a ParameterizedObject) potentially comes from a different module from the reference. Expanding a DummyReference or parameterized reference in-line puts the substitute definition into the context of the module containing the reference, which could therefore alter the interpretation of the substitute definition. A type definition is potentially dependent on the TagDefault and ExtensionDefault of the module in which it appears, and may also be affected by encoding instructions in an XML Encoding Rules (XER) [X.693] encoding control section [X.693-1]. Other kinds of definitions are not dependent on the module context; however, type definitions can be nested within the other kinds of definitions, so a change of context can still be significant. Aside: Type definitions are not dependent on their module's RXER or Generic String Encoding Rules (GSER) [GSER] encoding control section [RXEREI][GSEREI] (as they are currently defined), so the presence of an encoding control section for RXER or GSER is not significant in a change of context. The remainder of this section describes how and when a change of context is indicated in the ASN.X translation of a DummyReference or parameterized reference. In any instance of use, the module containing the DummyReference or parameterized reference is the referencing module, and the module providing the substitute definition is the referenced module. The referenced and referencing modules may be the same module. In the case of a ParameterizedType, the substitute definition is the Type on the right-hand side of the referenced ParameterizedTypeAssignment. In the case of a ParameterizedValueSetType, the substitute definition is the constrained type on the right-hand side of the notional ParameterizedTypeAssignment equivalent to the referenced ParameterizedValueSetTypeAssignment (see Clause 15.8 of X.680 [X.680]). In the case of a ParameterizedValue, the substitute definition is the Value on the right-hand side of the referenced ParameterizedValueAssignment. In the case of a ParameterizedObjectClass, the substitute definition is the ObjectClass on the right-hand side of the referenced ParameterizedObjectClassAssignment.Legg Experimental [Page 84]
RFC 4912 Abstract Syntax Notation X July 2007 In the case of a ParameterizedObject, the substitute definition is the Object on the right-hand side of the referenced ParameterizedObjectAssignment. In the case of a ParameterizedObjectSet, the substitute definition is the ObjectSet on the right-hand side of the referenced ParameterizedObjectSetAssignment. If the ActualParameter corresponding to a DummyReference is not a ValueSet, then the substitute definition for that DummyReference is the Type, Value, DefinedObjectClass, Object, or ObjectSet in the ActualParameter. If the ActualParameter corresponding to a DummyReference is a ValueSet, then the substitute definition for that DummyReference is the notional constrained type equivalent to the ValueSet; the ElementSetSpecs of the ValueSet contributes to the constraint of the constrained type, and the governor of the Parameter corresponding to the ActualParameter is used as the parent type that is constrained. Definition (interchangeable): The contexts of the referencing and referenced modules are interchangeable with respect to interpreting the substitute definition if: (1) the referenced module is the referencing module and does not contain an XER encoding control section, or (2) the referenced module and referencing module have the same TagDefault (where an absent TagDefault is taken to be equivalent to "EXPLICIT TAGS"), the referenced module and referencing module have the same ExtensionDefault, and neither module has an XER encoding control section. Aside: A module with an XER encoding control section is not considered to have a context interchangeable with another module, including itself, because the typereference by which a substitute type definition is identified may appear in a TargetList in the XER encoding control section of the referenced module, and because the in-line expansion of a substitute definition may cause its text to come within the scope of a TargetList in the XER encoding control section of the referencing module that would not apply otherwise. Definition (recursively contained): A ParameterizedType is recursively contained if its translation will be nested within the translation (i.e., in-line expansion) of another ParameterizedType toLegg Experimental [Page 85]
RFC 4912 Abstract Syntax Notation X July 2007 which it is equivalent. A ParameterizedValueSetType is recursively contained if its translation will be nested within the translation of another ParameterizedValueSetType to which it is equivalent. Aside: ASN.1 does not permit the other kinds of parameterized reference to be recursive. The translation of a DummyReference, a ParameterizedType that is not recursively contained, a ParameterizedValue, a ParameterizedValueSetType that is not recursively contained, a ParameterizedObjectClass, a ParameterizedObject, or a ParameterizedObjectSet is either: (a) the translation of the substitute definition, or (b) an element item with the [local name] "type" if the substitute definition is a Type, "value" if the substitute definition is a Value, "class" if the substitute definition is an ObjectClass or DefinedObjectClass, "object" if the substitute definition is an Object, or "objectSet" if the substitute definition is an ObjectSet. A fully expanded reference (described shortly) SHALL be added to the [children] of the element item. The translation in case (b) is always allowed and provides information to identify the referenced module and the referenced definition. The translation in case (a) MAY be used instead if and only if the contexts of the referencing and referenced modules are interchangeable, or the contexts of the referencing and referenced modules are not interchangeable, but the difference between them does not affect how the substitute definition is interpreted. Aside: There are many ways in which the substitute definition can be unaffected by a difference between the contexts of the referencing and referenced modules. One example would be where the referencing and referenced modules differ only in their TagDefault, but the substitute definition does not contain any TaggedType notation. Note that if the translation in case (a) is used, then the referencing module is still the referencing module when considering a nested in-line expansion. If the translation in case (b) is used, then the referenced module becomes the referencing module when considering a nested in-line expansion.Legg Experimental [Page 86]
RFC 4912 Abstract Syntax Notation X July 2007 If case (a) is used for the translation of a DummyReference where the substitute definition is a Type, then an attribute form translation of the substitute definition SHALL NOT be used, and an attribute item with the [local name] "explicit" and [normalized value] "true" or "1" SHALL be added to the [attributes] of the <type> element item resulting from the translation of the substitute definition. Where the automatic tagging transformation applies [X.680], this attribute item indicates that explicit tagging applies to the type instead of the usual implicit tagging. If case (b) is used for the translation of a DummyReference where the substitute definition is a Type, then an attribute item with the [local name] "explicit" and [normalized value] "true" or "1" SHALL be added to the [attributes] of the <type> element item generated by case (b). A fully expanded reference is an element item with the [local name] "expanded". Except in the case of a DummyReference, the reference name is indicated by an attribute item with the [local name] "name" added to the [attributes] of the <expanded> element item. In the case of a ParameterizedType or ParameterizedValueSetType, the [normalized value] of this attribute item is the typereference of the ParameterizedType or ParameterizedValueSetType. In the case of a ParameterizedValue, the [normalized value] of this attribute item is the valuereference of the ParameterizedValue. In the case of a ParameterizedObjectClass, the [normalized value] of this attribute item is the objectclassreference of the ParameterizedObjectClass. In the case of a ParameterizedObject, the [normalized value] of this attribute item is the objectreference of the ParameterizedObject. In the case of a ParameterizedObjectSet, the [normalized value] of this attribute item is the objectsetreference of the ParameterizedObjectSet. The "name" attribute item MAY be omitted if: (1) the conditions permitting the use of the translation in case (a) are satisfied, or (2) the reference is not a typereference, orLegg Experimental [Page 87]
RFC 4912 Abstract Syntax Notation X July 2007 (3) the reference is a typereference that does not appear in any TargetList in an XER encoding control section of the referenced module. The "name" attribute SHALL NOT appear in the translation of a DummyReference. The referenced module is indicated by an element item with the [local name] "module" added to the [children] of the <expanded> element item. The <module> element item MAY be omitted if the conditions permitting the use of the translation in case (a) are satisfied, or if the referencing module is the referenced module. When the <module> element item is present: (1) An attribute item with the [local name] "name" SHOULD be added to the [attributes] of the <module> element item. The [normalized value] of this attribute item is the modulereference in the ModuleIdentifier in the ModuleDefinition of the referenced module. (2) If the DefinitiveIdentifier in the ModuleIdentifier in the ModuleDefinition of the referenced module is not empty, then an attribute item with the [local name] "identifier" SHALL be added to the [attributes] of the <module> element item. The [normalized value] of this attribute item is the RXER character data translation of the DefinitiveIdentifier. (3) If the referenced module has a schema identity URI, then an attribute item with the [local name] "schemaIdentity" SHALL be added to the [attributes] of the <module> element item. The [normalized value] of this attribute item is the schema identity URI of the referenced module. The [attributes] of the <module> element item MUST contain at least one of the attribute items specified in cases (1), (2), and (3). The translation of the substitute definition SHALL be added to the [children] or [attributes] of the <expanded> element item.Legg Experimental [Page 88]
RFC 4912 Abstract Syntax Notation X July 2007 Example Consider these module definitions: Templates DEFINITIONS AUTOMATIC TAGS ::= BEGIN CollectionOfThings { Thing } ::= SEQUENCE OF thing Thing -- the Thing on the right-hand side of the assignment is -- a DummyReference END ProtocolDefinitions DEFINITIONS AUTOMATIC TAGS ::= BEGIN IMPORTS CollectionOfThings{} FROM Templates ; CollectionOfIntegers ::= CollectionOfThings { INTEGER } -- the right-hand side of the assignment is -- a ParameterizedType END Without using the translation in case (a), the translations of these modules are: <asnx:module name="Templates"/> <asnx:module xmlns:asnx="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:asnx" name="ProtocolDefinitions"> <namedType name="CollectionOfIntegers"> <type> <expanded name="CollectionOfThings"> <module name="Templates"/> <type> <sequenceOf> <element name="thing"> <type> <expanded>Legg Experimental [Page 89]
RFC 4912 Abstract Syntax Notation X July 2007 <module name="ProtocolDefinitions"/> <type ref="asnx:INTEGER"/> </expanded> </type> </element> </sequenceOf> </type> </expanded> </type> </namedType> </asnx:module> The translation of the Templates module is empty because the module contains only a parameterized assignment. Since the contexts of the Templates and ProtocolDefinitions modules are interchangeable, a simpler translation of the ProtocolDefinitions module is permitted: <asnx:module xmlns:asnx="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:asnx" name="ProtocolDefinitions"> <namedType name="CollectionOfIntegers"> <type> <sequenceOf> <element name="thing"> <type ref="asnx:INTEGER" explicit="true"/> </element> </sequenceOf> </type> </namedType> </asnx:module> If a ParameterizedType or ParameterizedValueSetType is recursively contained, then its translation is an element item with the [local name] "type". An attribute item with the [local name] "ancestor" SHALL be added to the [attributes] of the <type> element item. The [normalized value] of this attribute item is the decimal digit string representing the integer value of one plus the number of intermediate enclosing <type> element items between the <type> element items resulting from the translations of the two equivalent instances of ParameterizedType or ParameterizedValueSetType. An element item with the [local name] "annotation" MAY be added to the [children] of the <type> element item.Legg Experimental [Page 90]
RFC 4912 Abstract Syntax Notation X July 2007 A <type> element item with an ancestor attribute item is a reference to an ancestor <type> element item. This form for a <type> element item SHOULD NOT be used in original specifications written in ASN.X. Aside: The form is only intended for the purpose of handling recursive parameterized type definitions in an ASN.1 specification being translated into ASN.X. Such definitions are self-referencing, but have no obvious name. It is also not easy to construct a suitable name from the surrounding context because recursive parameterized types can be embedded in other constructs, such as information objects, that are themselves unnamed. Example Consider these type definitions, assumed to be defined in a module that does not have an XER encoding control section: Tree { ValueType } ::= SEQUENCE { value [0] ValueType, left-subtree [1] Tree { ValueType } OPTIONAL, right-subtree [2] Tree { ValueType } OPTIONAL } NumberTree ::= [APPLICATION 13] Tree { INTEGER } The assignment for "Tree" is not directly translated because it is a ParameterizedAssignment. The translation for the "NumberTree" assignment, up to but not yet including the Type in the TaggedType, is as follows: <namedType name="NumberTree"> <type> <tagged tagClass="application" number="13"/> </type> </namedType> The Type in the TaggedType is a ParameterizedType. Since the ParameterizedType is not recursively contained, the translation of the ParameterizedType (using the translation in case (a) above) is the translation of the Type on the right-hand side of the referenced ParameterizedTypeAssignment, namely this type: SEQUENCE { value [0] ValueType, left-subtree [1] Tree { ValueType } OPTIONAL, right-subtree [2] Tree { ValueType } OPTIONAL }Legg Experimental [Page 91]
RFC 4912 Abstract Syntax Notation X July 2007 ValueType is a DummyReference. The translation of the actual parameter substitutes for the DummyReference. In this case, the actual parameter is the INTEGER type. The translation for the SEQUENCE type, up to the first component, is added to the <tagged> element: <namedType name="NumberTree"> <type> <tagged tagClass="application" number="13"> <type><!-- Tree { INTEGER } --> <sequence> <element name="value"> <type> <tagged number="0"> <type ref="asnx:INTEGER" explicit="true"/><!-- ValueType --> </tagged> </type> </element> </sequence> </type> </tagged> </type> </namedType> The Type in the TaggedType for the second component is a ParameterizedType. Since this ParameterizedType is recursively contained, its translation is a <type> element with the ancestor attribute. The value of the ancestor attribute is "2" because there is one intermediate <type> element (for a TaggedType). Put another way, the translations of the equivalent instances of ParameterizedType are two <type> steps apart. The translation of the third component of the SEQUENCE type follows the same pattern as the second component. The completed translation is as follows: <namedType name="NumberTree"> <type> <tagged tagClass="application" number="13"> <type><!-- Tree { INTEGER } --> <sequence> <element name="value"> <type> <tagged number="0"> <type ref="asnx:INTEGER" explicit="true"/><!-- ValueType -->Legg Experimental [Page 92]
RFC 4912 Abstract Syntax Notation X July 2007 </tagged> </type> </element> <optional> <element name="left-subtree"> <type> <tagged number="1"> <type ancestor="2"/><!-- Tree { ValueType } --> </tagged> </type> </element> </optional> <optional> <element name="right-subtree"> <type> <tagged number="2"> <type ancestor="2"/><!-- Tree { ValueType } --> </tagged> </type> </element> </optional> </sequence> </type> </tagged> </type> </namedType>14. EncodingControlSections Translation If an EncodingControlSections instance contains at least one EncodingControlSection with an encodingreference that is not RXER, then the translation of the EncodingControlSections instance is an element item with the [local name] "encodingControls". The translation of each EncodingControlSection with an encodingreference that is not RXER SHALL be appended to the [children] of the <encodingControls> element item. Aside: This is not suggesting that RXER encoding control sections are ignored. Encoding control sections for RXER are not explicitly represented in ASN.X, but rather affect how an ASN.1 module is translated into an ASN.X module. The effect of an RXER encoding control section on the translation is addressed in other parts of this specification. Encoding control sections for other encoding rules will have explicit representations in ASN.X.Legg Experimental [Page 93]
RFC 4912 Abstract Syntax Notation X July 2007 If the encodingreference in an EncodingControlSection is GSER, then the translation of the EncodingControlSection is an element item with the [local name] "GSER". The translation of the EncodingInstructionAssignmentList in the EncodingControlSection SHALL be added to the [children] of the <GSER> element item. The EncodingInstructionAssignmentList notation is different for each set of encoding instructions. The translation into ASN.X of an EncodingInstructionAssignmentList for GSER is specified in a separate document [GSEREIT]. Aside: The translation of an EncodingInstructionAssignmentList for GSER, as it is currently defined, is always empty. If the encodingreference in an EncodingControlSection is XER, then the translation of the EncodingControlSection is an element item with the [local name] "XER". The translation of the EncodingInstructionAssignmentList in the EncodingControlSection SHALL be added to the [children] of the <XER> element item. The translation into ASN.X of an EncodingInstructionAssignmentList for XER is specified in a separate document [XEREIT].15. Security Considerations The ASN.X translation of an ASN.1 specification is semantically equivalent to the original ASN.1 specification. The security considerations that apply to an application built from the original ASN.1 specification apply equally to an application built from the ASN.X translation. Syntax-based canonicalization for XML documents (e.g., Canonical XML [CXML]) depends on the Infoset of an XML document being preserved. However, the Infoset representation of an ASN.X module potentially changes if it is decoded and re-encoded (though its ASN.1 value is preserved), disrupting the Canonical XML representation. To avoid this problem, ASN.X modules MUST be normalized prior to the application of syntax-based canonicalization. The normalization rules can be found inSection 6.13 of the specification for RXER [RXER].16.
