Kai Zheng commented on DIRKRB-159: ---------------------------------- Logging this in case it's forgotten. We should consider this in the future when have the bandwidth. > Having a decoartor for each type of encoding, like BER/CER/DER > -------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: DIRKRB-159 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRKRB-159 > Project: Directory Kerberos > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Kai Zheng > > Below is from [~elecharny]'s email, giving the thoughts: > {noformat} > we do the encoding/decoding in the ASN1 type instances. > That's ok, but as soon as we have to deal with various type of encoding > (BER/CER...) this cipple the code with if/else/then. > What about having a decoartor for each type of encoding ? > {noformat} > Below is [~drankye]'s response in email: > {noformat} > I agree. If we're going to support BER and DER both well or new schemes, > then we need such. It won't introduce API change for the types and is only > for internal encoding/decoding implementation, right ? > Could you have a simple illustration or example, > say how to do that for the simple Asn1Boolean type ? Thanks. > {noformat} -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
