3GPP Benchmark: omits at the end of value list

The problem when in value list at the end occur more than 1 omit, and this is not static value list (for example, its components are formal parameters), this cause Test Case error when try to assign this list, was solved.

TAU#7500

link error on unix when running test chain

This issue appeared as a result of changes related to CR #6748

TAU#7429

LTE - TTCN-3 3.4.1 (CR 2975): Allow specification of non-optional templates; semantic analysis

15.8 clause of 3.4.1 TTCN standart version implemented.

TAU#7247

TTCN-3 keywords are not handled properly when used in ASN.1 modules

When importing ASN.1 identifiers which actually are TTCN-3 keywords such identifiers will now be preprepared with underscore

TAU#6768

LTE - TTCN-3 3.4.1 (CR 2975): Allow specification of non-optional templates; syntax analysis

15.8 clause of 3.4.1 TTCN standart version implemented.

TAU#6767

TTCN-3 3.4.1 (CR 2808: Verdict reason) - parser changes

New frontend parser changes are done

TAU#6762

TTCN-3 3.3.2 (CR 1863): remove some restrictions on accessing parts of templates in left hand sides of assignments.

TTCN-3 3.3.2, 15.6.2 a)

"Omit, AnyValueOrNone, value lists and complemented lists: referencing a subfield within a structured field

to which Omit, AnyValueOrNone, a value list or a complemented list is assigned, at the right hand side of an

assignment, shall cause an error.

When referencing a subfield within a structured field to which AnyValueOrNone or omit is assigned, at the

left hand side of an assignment, the structured field is implicitly set to be present, it is expanded recursively

up to and including the depth of the referenced subfield. During this expansion an AnyValue shall be

assigned to mandatory subfields and AnyValueOrNone shall be assigned to optional subfields. After this

expansion the value or matching mechanism at the right hand side of the assignment shall be assigned to the

referenced subfield.

When referencing a subfield within a structured field to which value lists or complemented value lists are

assigned, at the left hand side of an assignment, shall cause an error."

This new option may cause errors in compilation in some existing projects, so this option is on when compiler option -D is using(Forces strict TTCN-3 standard compliance)

TAU#6755

TTCN-3 3.3.2 (CR 418): Stand-alone statement blocks

Standalone statement blocks supported now

TAU#6754

TTCN-3 3.4.1 (CR 415) preprocessor macros

Macroses are introduced

TAU#6748

TTCN-3 3.3.2: (CR 383): Error Cases of Predefined Functions

Added support for passing inlined templates passed to predefined functions. Error cases defined in the standard are handled too. There are two exceptions: "regexp" and "replace" because they are handled in separate cases

TAU#6746

3GPP becnhmark: support string constraints with big upper boundary in PER

Inlined strings with SIZE constraint are now supported in PER when upper boundary is greater than 65535

For example:

RabTxInfo ::= SEQUENCE

{testData BIT STRING (SIZE (65536))}

TAU#6745

3GPP benchmark: support unconstrained inline sequenceof/setof

Inlined SEQUENCE_OF/SET_OF without SIZE constraints now supported by PER codec

For example:

SS-MAC-hs-AddReconfQueue ::= SEQUENCE {

logicalChannelList SEQUENCE OF LogicalChannelIdentity

}

TAU#6744

3GPP Benchamrk: support inline enumerations in asn.1 PER codec

Inline enumerations in PER codec generator now supported.

For example:

CellUpdate-v690ext-IEs ::= SEQUENCE {

volumeIndicator ENUMERATED { true-value, false-value }

}

TAU#6743

3GPP Benchmark: support asn.1 DEFAULT

ASN.1 SEQUENCE/SET fields with DEFAULT values are now translated to TTCN-3 as _optional_ fields. It means that omit may be used in the sending or receiving template to denote the use of default value. Note the following pecularities:

1) When value is sent to port all fields having default values are checked. If actual value sent is omitted or equal to default value then value is omitted from payload.

2) When message is received and field value is not present in the payload meaning that default value should be used omit is assigned to the field. THIS DIFFERS from previous implementation where fields having default values were translated as mandatory and default value was assigned upon receive of empty payload.

3) When two value are compared at runtime Tester does not distinct fields with default values. It means that if one value has omit in the default field and other has a value which is equal to the default value then runtime system will treat these values as NON-EQUAL values.

4) New t3rt_type_field_default_value() function may be used to query default value of a field.

TAU#6742

3GPP benchmark: provide support for asn.1 NULL

NULL enumeration literal representing the only value of an ASN.1 NULL type may now be used in TTCN-3 code as long as at least one ASN.1 module is imported into a TTCN-3 module.

Note that:

1) NULL type is not imported so using NULL as a type reference would not work. You need to subtype NULL in ASN.1 code and use that subtype in TTCN-3 code instead

2) Declaring NULL in TTCN-3 code (e.g. as a aub type) overrides imported NULL enumeration literal
