| 2 | GENERAL INFORMATION |
| 3 | =================== |
| 4 | |
| 5 | The GSM TAP3 (Transferred Account Procedure, Version 3) decoder. |
| 6 | Invoking `make` will compile the ASN.1 specifications from the |
| 7 | ../tap3.asn1 file. |
| 8 | |
| 9 | THERE IS NO tap3.asn1 FILE THERE YET! |
| 10 | |
| 11 | OBTAINING THE TAP3 SPECIFICATION |
| 12 | ================================ |
| 13 | |
| Lev Walkin | 5e2f23e | 2006-08-25 01:51:29 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 14 | Due to licensing restrictions, asn1c can not include the TAP3 ASN.1 module |
| 15 | in its distribution. |
| 16 | |
| Lev Walkin | 3f12bc0 | 2005-03-10 15:09:02 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 17 | To obtain the TAP3 ASN.1 specification, you should go to |
| 18 | http://www.gsmworld.com/using/billing/tap3_legal.html |
| 19 | and agree with their licensing terms by clicking the "I ACCEPT" button. |
| 20 | |
| 21 | A .ZIP file with several Microsoft Word .DOC files will download shortly. |
| 22 | |
| 23 | You should extract the TAP-0311 ASN.1 module from one of these .DOC files |
| 24 | and save it as the ../tap3.asn1 file. The ../tap3.asn1 file should start with |
| 25 | the following line |
| 26 | "TAP-0311 DEFINITIONS IMPLICIT TAGS ::=" |
| 27 | and end with the "END" token. |
| 28 | Be careful not to copy any non-ASN.1 preambles from that .DOC file. |
| 29 | |
| 30 | After obtaining the tap3.asn1, type `make` in the directory containing |
| 31 | this README file. |
| 32 | |
| 33 | tap3dump USAGE |
| 34 | ============== |
| 35 | |
| 36 | The tap3dump utility may be used to dump the contents of the BER-encoded |
| 37 | TAP3 data record file: |
