Previous_Part_4
In this post, we will begin our Itevad Protocol Text Encoder. Again, with the help of ASN.1 compiler, we have already got the structure of Itevad itself. Moreover, we have implemented binary encoder and decoder in previous post. For text encoder, all we need to do is parse the structure of Itevad msg and then translate it into text. Cheers!
