 Q I have my own ASN.1 syntax. Can I use OneBuilder?
 A Yes. One of the primary design requirements for OneBuilder was the ability to reconfigure it to work with any custom ASN.1 syntax.

Q Which encoding rules does the application support?
A OneBuilder supports BER, CER, DER, PER, UPER, XER, and CXER encoding.

Q I need to create many messages that are very similar to each other (only one or two values different). How does OneBuilder cope with this?
A

Use OneBuilder to create and save the first message. To create the subsequent messages, open the first message, modify the one or two items to the desired values, and then save to a different file.

 

Q How does OneBuilder cope with multiple ASN.1 syntaxes?
A

OneBuilder extracts ASN.1 syntax information from specially prepared configuration files. Each syntax is defined in one file and the files are stored in a particular location. OneBuilder reads the contents of these files at run time. To support a new syntax, a new configuration file needs to be prepared.

 

Q In my application, I need to dynamically modify the contents of a message. Can I still use OneBuilder?
A

Yes, OneBuilder can help you with the initial creation of the messages. Some ASN.1 messages are very large. Creating these messages by hand is a non-trivial and error-prone task. OneBuilder can help you create the "static" part or structure of your messages. Your application can read them and modify the few fields that need to change dynamically. OneBuilder can also examine the contents of the received messages.

 

Q Once I have built a message how do I use it with my System?
A

The answer to this question will depend on your system and its requirements. Some systems are already configured to process files as messages. If this is the case, you simply need to point your system to the files created by OneBuilder. Other systems will need to have some code created in order to read the message at the appropriate time. Given that the file format used by OneBuilder is very simple, this task should not be difficult for an average programmer.

 

Q OneBuilder is very close to what I need but it does not exactly meet my requirements. How can this be dealt with?
A

OneBuilder is an evolving application. New features are being planned. Your input can influence its future capabilities and direction. Depending on the impact and size of your requirements it may be possible for Red Packet Technologies to modify OneBuilder to suite your specific needs. For more information contact Red Packet Technologies.
