TLOG#57347

Tester report VAL0011 error when first element of a list is assigned using a template of list type

The problem when inline template is defined in the another template and accept template's formal parameter, has been fixed.

Also, TTCN3_DISABLE_LENGTH_RESTRICTION variable makes effect for length constraint generation of both TTCN3 and ASN.1 type.

81661,999,744

TLOG#57848

Appropriate type definitions not generated in the .typ file on Linux when the main ASN.1 module has a dependent module

The bug, when some type definitions were not generated in the .typ file if target dir contains some old generated files, has been fixed.

60945,019,866

TLOG#58197

When a project is built into a library, the resultant library should contain references to t3tci_get_modules_info

04010,140,702

TLOG#59421

A 'length mismatch' report from Tester does not produce any detail other than the mismatch of the lengths

The bug that option "Continue template matching on fail" didn't worked from GUI has been fixed. The influence of this option has been extended for 'record of' and 'set of' matching, when the length mismatch is detected.

04100,140,702

TLOG#59423

Using the option t3rt.templates.static_through_dynamic changes the run-time behavior and results in error

2 bugs have been fixed in Tester:

- It was not possible to pass anyornone or anyone value as actual parameter to a function, that returns a template. This caused wrong run-time Test Case Error reporting.

- It was possible to use templates as 'Expression' in match operation, when 'Expression' should be a rvalue. This cased the unexpected behaviour at run-time.

 

TLOG#59584

"go to definition" not always working

The bug when "Goto definitions" didn't work when default values were used for formal parameters has been fixed.

"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."

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.

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
