Expand description

Context-specific field which wraps an owned inner value.

This type decodes/encodes a field which is specific to a particular context and is identified by a TagNumber.

Fields

tag_number: TagNumber

Context-specific tag number sans the leading 0b10000000 class identifier bit and 0b100000 constructed flag.

tag_mode: TagMode

Tag mode: EXPLICIT VS IMPLICIT.

value: T

Value of the field.

Implementations

Attempt to decode an EXPLICIT ASN.1 CONTEXT-SPECIFIC field with the provided TagNumber.

This method has the following behavior which is designed to simplify handling of extension fields, which are denoted in an ASN.1 schema using the ... ellipsis extension marker:

  • Skips over ContextSpecific fields with a tag number lower than the current one, consuming and ignoring them.
  • Returns Ok(None) if a ContextSpecific field with a higher tag number is encountered. These fields are not consumed in this case, allowing a field with a lower tag number to be omitted, then the higher numbered field consumed as a follow-up.
  • Returns Ok(None) if anything other than a ContextSpecific field is encountered.

Attempt to decode an IMPLICIT ASN.1 CONTEXT-SPECIFIC field with the provided TagNumber.

This method otherwise behaves the same as decode_explicit, but should be used in cases where the particular fields are IMPLICIT as opposed to EXPLICIT.
