78=head2 EXPORT TAGS AND CONSTANTS
79
80By default this module doesn't export any symbols, but if you don't want
81to break your keyboard, editor or eyesight with extremely long names, I
82recommend importing the C<:all> tag. Still, you can selectively import
83things.
84
85=over
86
87=item C<:all>
88
89All of the below. Really. Recommended for at least first steps, or if you
90don't care about a few kilobytes of wasted memory (and namespace).
91
92=item C<:const>
93
94All of the strictly ASN.1-related constants defined by this module, the
95same as C<:const_asn :const_index>. Notably, this does not contain
96C<:const_ber_type> and C<:const_snmp>.
97
98A good set to get everything you need to decode and match BER data would be
99C<:decode :const>.
100
101=item C<:const_index>
102
103The BER tuple array index constants:
104
105 BER_CLASS BER_TAG BER_CONSTRUCTED BER_DATA

108
109ASN class values (these are C<0>, C<1>, C<2> and C<3>, respectively -
110exactly thw two topmost bits from the identifier octet shifted 6 bits to
111the right):
112
113 ASN_UNIVERSAL ASN_APPLICATION ASN_CONTEXT ASN_PRIVATE
114
115ASN tag values (some of which are aliases, such as C<ASN_OID>). Their
116numerical value corresponds exactly to the numbers used in BER/X.690.

136the C<ASN_APPLICATION> namespace and have the exact numerical value as in
137BER/RFC 2578.
