Hi Abdulla, this is a very interesting news ! FYI, we have a labs going on (slowly) about a ASN.1 compiler, with a couple of person trying to spend a few hours here and there on it. Having a generic ASN.1 compiler (generating BER/DER/CER/XER and PER codec) in Apache would definitively be a big plus !
Let's see how we can do that based on your work (BinaryNotes) which seems to be very good !
