Detailed Description

Context initialization functions handle the allocation, initialization, and destruction of context variables (variables of type OSCTXT). These variables hold all of the working data used during the process of encoding or decoding a message. The context provides thread safe operation by isolating what would otherwise be global variables within this structure. The context variable is passed from function to function as a message is encoded or decoded and maintains state information on the encoding or decoding process.

Define Documentation

#define OSRT_GET_FIRST_ERROR_INFO ( pctxt   ) 
Value:
(((pctxt)->errInfo.list.head == 0) ? (OSRTErrInfo*)0 : \
(OSRTErrInfo*)((pctxt)->errInfo.list.head->data))
#define OSRT_GET_LAST_ERROR_INFO ( pctxt   ) 
Value:
(((pctxt)->errInfo.list.tail == 0) ? (OSRTErrInfo*)0 : \
(OSRTErrInfo*)((pctxt)->errInfo.list.tail->data))
#define rtxByteAlign ( pctxt   ) 
Value:
if ((pctxt)->buffer.bitOffset != 8) { \
(pctxt)->buffer.byteIndex++; (pctxt)->buffer.bitOffset = 8; }

This macro will byte-align the context buffer.

#define rtxCtxtGetMsgLen ( pctxt   )     (pctxt)->buffer.byteIndex

This macro returns the length of an encoded message. It will only work for in-memory encoding, not for encode to stream.

Note that this macro will not work with ASN.1 BER in-memory encoding. In this case, the BER-specific version of the function must be used.

Parameters:
pctxt Pointer to a context structure.
#define rtxCtxtGetMsgPtr ( pctxt   )     (pctxt)->buffer.data

This macro returns the start address of an encoded message. If a static buffer was used, this is simply the start address of the buffer. If dynamic encoding was done, this will return the start address of the dynamic buffer allocated by the encoder.

Note that this macro will not work with ASN.1 BER in-memory encoding. In this case, the BER-specific version of the function must be used.

Parameters:
pctxt Pointer to a context structure.
#define rtxCtxtPeekElemName ( pctxt   ) 
Value:
(((pctxt)->elemNameStack.count > 0) ? \
 (const OSUTF8CHAR*)(pctxt)->elemNameStack.tail->data : (const OSUTF8CHAR*)0)

This macro returns the last element name from the context stack.

Parameters:
pctxt Pointer to a context structure.
Returns:
Element name from top of stack or NULL if stack is empty.
#define rtxCtxtSetProtocolVersion ( pctxt,
value   )     (pctxt)->version = value

This macro sets the protocol version in the context. This version number may be used in application code to do version specific operations. It is used in generated ASN.1 code with the extension addition version numbers to determine if an addition should be decoded.

For example, if this value is set to 8 and an extension addition group exists with version number 9 ([[ 9: ... ]]), its contents will not be decoded.

Parameters:
pctxt Pointer to a context structure.
value The version number value.
#define rtxCtxtTestFlag ( pctxt,
mask   )     (((pctxt)->flags & mask) != 0)

This macro tests if the given bit flag is set in the context.

Parameters:
pctxt - A pointer to a context structure.
mask - Bit flag to be tested

Typedef Documentation

typedef int(* OSFreeCtxtAppInfoPtr)(struct OSCTXT *pctxt)

OSRTFreeCtxtAppInfoPtr is a pointer to pctxt->pAppInfo free function, The pctxt->pAppInfo (pXMLInfo and pASN1Info) should contain the pointer to a structure and its first member should be a pointer to an appInfo free function.

typedef void(* OSFreeCtxtGlobalPtr)(struct OSCTXT *pctxt)

OSRTFreeCtxtGlobalPtr is a pointer to a memory free function. This type describes the custom global memory free function generated by the compiler to free global nmemory. A pointer to a function of this type may be stored in the context gblFreeFunc field in order to free global data (pGlobalData) when rtxFreeContext is called.

typedef int(* OSResetCtxtAppInfoPtr)(struct OSCTXT *pctxt)

OSRTResetCtxtAppInfoPtr is a pointer to pctxt->pAppInfo reset function, The pctxt->pAppInfo (pXMLInfo and pASN1Info) should contain the pointer to a structure and its second member should be a pointer to appInfo reset function.

Function Documentation

int rtxCheckContext ( OSCTXT *  pctxt  ) 

This function verifies that the given context structure is initialized and ready for use.

Parameters:
pctxt Pointer to a context structure.
Returns:
Completion status of operation:
  • 0 = success,
  • RTERR_NOTINIT status code if not initialized
void rtxCopyContext ( OSCTXT *  pdest,
OSCTXT *  psrc 
)

This function creates a copy of a context structure. The copy is a "shallow copy" (i.e. new copies of dynamic memory blocks held within the context are not made, only the pointers are transferred to the new context structure). This function is mainly for use from within compiler-generated code.

Parameters:
pdest - Context structure to which data is to be copied.
psrc - Context structure from which data is to be copied.
void rtxCtxtClearFlag ( OSCTXT *  pctxt,
OSUINT32  mask 
)

This function is used to clear a processing flag within the context structure.

Parameters:
pctxt - A pointer to a context structure.
mask - Mask containing bit(s) to be cleared.
OSBOOL rtxCtxtContainerHasRemBits ( OSCTXT *  pctxt  ) 

Return true iff there are bits remaining to be decoded in the current length-constrained container, which is possibly the outer PDU.

See also rtxCtxtPushContainer(Bits|Bytes)/rtxCtxtPopContainer

Parameters:
pctxt Pointer to context structure.
OSSIZE rtxCtxtGetBitOffset ( OSCTXT *  pctxt  ) 

This function returns the total bit offset to the current element in the context buffer.

Parameters:
pctxt Pointer to a context structure.
Returns:
Bit offset.
OSSIZE rtxCtxtGetContainerRemBits ( OSCTXT *  pctxt  ) 

Return the number of bits remaining to be decoded in the current length-constrained container, which is possibly the outer PDU.

Parameters:
pctxt Pointer to context structure.
OSBOOL rtxCtxtPopArrayElemName ( OSCTXT *  pctxt  ) 

This function pops the last element name from the context stack. This name is assumed to be an array element name pushed by the rtxCtxtPushArrayElemName function. The name is therefore dynamic and memory is freed for it using the rtxMemFreePtr function.

Parameters:

Returns:
True if name popped from stack or false if stack is empty.
void rtxCtxtPopContainer ( OSCTXT *  pctxt  )

This function pops the type name from the context stack. The name is only popped if the item count is one.

Parameters:
pctxt Pointer to a context structure.
Returns:
Type name popped from stack or NULL if stack count not equal to one.
int rtxCtxtPushArrayElemName ( OSCTXT *  pctxt,
const OSUTF8CHAR *  elemName,
OSSIZE  idx 
)

Parameters:
pctxt Pointer to a context structure. This provides a storage area for the function to store all working variables that must be maintained between function calls.
bufaddr A pointer to a memory buffer to use to encode a message or that holds a message to be decoded. The buffer should be declared as an array of unsigned characters (OCTETs). This parameter can be set to NULL to specify dynamic encoding (i.e., the encode functions will dynamically allocate a buffer to hold the encoded message).
bufsiz The length of the memory buffer in bytes. Should be set to zero if NULL was specified for bufaddr (i.e. dynamic encoding was selected).
void rtxCtxtSetFlag ( OSCTXT *  pctxt,
OSUINT32  mask 
)

int rtxInitContext ( OSCTXT *  pctxt  ) 

This function initializes an OSCTXT block. It sets all key working parameters to their correct initial state values. It is required that this function be invoked before using a context variable.

Returns:
Completion status of operation:

)

This function initializes a context for use in a thread. It is the same as rtxInitContext except that it copies the pointer to constant data from the given source context into the newly initialized thread context. It is assumed that the source context has been initialized and the custom generated global initialization function has been called. The main purpose of this function is to prevent multiple copies of global static data from being created within different threads.
