270How tags are interpreted is defined by the second argument, which must
271be a C<Convert::BER::XS::Profile> object. If it is missing, the default
272profile will be used (C<$Convert::BER::XS::DEFAULT_PROFILE>).
273
274In addition to rolling your own, this module provides a
275C<$Convert::BER::XS::SNMP_PROFILE> that knows about the additional SNMP
276types.
277
278Example: decode a BER blob using the default profile - SNMP values will be
279decided as raw strings.
280
281 $tuple = ber_decode $data;
282
283Example: as above, but use the provided SNMP profile.

288
289Works like C<ber_decode>, except it doesn't croak when there is data after
290the BER data, but instead returns the decoded value and the number of
291bytes it decoded.
292
293This is useful when you have BER data at the start of a buffer and other
294data after, and you need to find the length.
295
296Also, since BER is self-delimited, this can be used to decode multiple BER
297values joined together.

475=head2 DEBUGGING
476
477To aid debugging, you cna call the C<ber_dump> function to print a "nice"
478representation to STDOUT.
479
480=over
481
482=item ber_dump $tuple[, $profile[, $prefix]]
483
484In addition to specifying the BER C<$tuple> to dump, youc an also specify
485a C<$profile> and a C<$prefix> string that is printed in front of each line.
486
487If C<$profile> is C<$Convert::BER::XS::SNMP_PROFILE>, then C<ber_dump>
488will try to improve its output for SNMP data.
489
490The output usually contains three columns, the "human readable" tag, the
491BER type used to decode it, and the data value.
492
493This function is somewhat slow and uses a number of heuristics and tricks,
494so it really is only suitable for debug prints.

575=head1 PROFILES
576
577While any BER data can be correctly encoded and decoded out of the box, it
578can be inconvenient to have to manually decode some values into a "better"
579format: for instance, SNMP TimeTicks values are decoded into the raw octet
580strings of their BER representation, which is quite hard to decode. With
581profiles, you can change which class/tag combinations map to which decoder
582function inside C<ber_decode> (and of course also which encoder functions
583are used in C<ber_encode>).
584
585This works by mapping specific class/tag combinations to an internal "ber
586type".
587
588The default profile supports the standard ASN.1 types, but no
589application-specific ones. This means that class/tag combinations not in
590the base set of ASN.1 are decoded into their raw octet strings.
591
592C<Convert::BER::XS> defines two profile variables you can use out of the box:
593
594=over
595
596=item C<$Convert::BER::XS::DEFAULT_PROFILE>
597
598This is the default profile, i.e. the profile that is used when no
599profile is specified for de-/encoding.
600
601You can modify it, but remember that this modifies the defaults for all
602callers that rely on the default profile.
603
604=item C<$Convert::BER::XS::SNMP_PROFILE>
605
606A profile with mappings for SNMP-specific application tags added. This is
607useful when de-/encoding SNMP data.
608
609Example:
610
611 $ber = ber_decode $data, $Convert::BER::XS::SNMP_PROFILE;
612
613=back
614
615=head2 The Convert::BER::XS::Profile class
616
617=over
618
619=item $profile = new Convert::BER::XS::Profile
620
621Create a new profile. The profile will be identical to the default
622profile.
623
624=item $profile->set ($class, $tag, $type)
625
626Sets the mapping for the given C<$class>/C<$tag> combination to C<$type>,
627which must be one of the C<BER_TYPE_*> constants.
628
629Note that currently, the mapping is stored in a flat array, so large
630values of C<$tag> will consume large amounts of memory.
631
632Example:
633
634 $profile = new Convert::BER::XS::Profile;
635 $profile->set (ASN_APPLICATION, SNMP_COUNTER32, BER_TYPE_INT);
636 $ber = ber_decode $data, $profile;
637
638=item $type = $profile->get ($class, $tag)
639
640Returns the BER type mapped to the given C<$class>/C<$tag> combination.
641
642=back
643
644=head2 BER TYPES
645
646This lists the predefined BER types - you can map any C<CLASS>/C<TAG>
647combination to any C<BER_TYPE_*>.
648
649=over
650
651=item C<BER_TYPE_BYTES>
652
653The raw octets of the value. This is the default type for unknown tags and
654de-/encodes the value as if it were an octet string, i.e. by copying the
655raw bytes.
656
657=item C<BER_TYPE_UTF8>
658
659Like C<BER_TYPE_BYTES>, but decodes the value as if it were a UTF-8 string
660(without validation!) and encodes a perl unicode string into a UTF-8 BER
661string.
662
663=item C<BER_TYPE_UCS2>
664
665Similar to C<BER_TYPE_UTF8>, but treats the BER value as UCS-2 encoded
666string.
667
668=item C<BER_TYPE_UCS4>
669
670Similar to C<BER_TYPE_UTF8>, but treats the BER value as UCS-4 encoded
671string.
672
673=item C<BER_TYPE_INT>
674
675Encodes and decodes a BER integer value to a perl integer scalar. This
676should correctly handle 64 bit signed and unsigned values.
677
678=item C<BER_TYPE_OID>
679
680Encodes and decodes an OBJECT IDENTIFIER into dotted form without leading
681dot, e.g. C<1.3.6.1.213>.
682
683=item C<BER_TYPE_RELOID>
684
685Same as C<BER_TYPE_OID> but uses relative object identifier
686encoding: ASN.1 has this hack of encoding the first two OID components
687into a single integer in a weird attempt to save an insignificant amount
688of space in an otherwise wasteful encoding, and relative OIDs are
689basically OIDs without this hack. The practical difference is that the
690second component of an OID can only have the values 1..40, while relative
691OIDs do not have this restriction.
692
693=item C<BER_TYPE_NULL>
694
695Decodes an C<ASN_NULL> value into C<undef>, and always encodes a
696C<ASN_NULL> type, regardless of the perl value.
697
698=item C<BER_TYPE_BOOL>
699
700Decodes an C<ASN_BOOLEAN> value into C<0> or C<1>, and encodes a perl
701boolean value into an C<ASN_BOOLEAN>.
702
703=item C<BER_TYPE_REAL>
704
705Decodes/encodes a BER real value. NOT IMPLEMENTED.
706
707=item C<BER_TYPE_IPADDRESS>
708
709Decodes/encodes a four byte string into an IPv4 dotted-quad address string
710in Perl. Given the obsolete nature of this type, this is a low-effort
711implementation that simply uses C<sprintf> and C<sscanf>-style conversion,
712so it won't handle all string forms supported by C<inet_aton> for example.
713
714=item C<BER_TYPE_CROAK>
715
716Always croaks when encountered during encoding or decoding - the
717default behaviour when encountering an unknown type is to treat it as
718C<BER_TYPE_BYTES>. When you don't want that but instead prefer a hard
719error for some types, then C<BER_TYPE_CROAK> is for you.

736
737=head2 LIMITATIONS/NOTES
738
739This module can only en-/decode 64 bit signed and unsigned integers, and
740only when your perl supports those.
741
742This module does not generally care about ranges, i.e. it will happily
743de-/encode 64 bit integers into an C<ASN_INTEGER> value, or a negative
744number into an C<SNMP_COUNTER64>.
745
746OBJECT IDENTIFIEERs cannot have unlimited length, although the limit is
747much larger than e.g. the one imposed by SNMP or other protocols,a nd is
748about 4kB.
749
750Indefinite length encoding is not supported.
751
752Constructed strings are decoded just fine, but there should be a way to
753join them for convenience.
754
755REAL values are not supported and will currently croak.
756
757The encoder and decoder tend to accept more formats than should be
758strictly supported.
759
760This module has undergone little to no testing so far.
761
762=head2 ITHREADS SUPPORT
763
764This module is unlikely to work when the (officially discouraged) ithreads
765are in use.
