The Z39.50 ASN.1 module provides you with a set of C struct definitions for the
various PDUs of the Z39.50 protocol, as well as for the complex types
appearing within the PDUs. For the primitive data types, the C
representation often takes the form of an ordinary C language type,
such as <code class="literal">Odr_int</code> which is equivalent to an integral
C integer. For ASN.1 constructs that have no direct
representation in C, such as general octet strings and bit strings,
the <acronym class="acronym">ODR</acronym> module (see section <a class="link" href="odr.html" title="Chapter�8.�The ODR Module">The ODR Module</a>)
provides auxiliary definitions.
</p><p>
The Z39.50 ASN.1 module is located in sub directory <code class="filename">z39.50</code>.
There you'll find C files that implements encoders and decoders for the
Z39.50 types. You'll also find the protocol definitions:
<code class="filename">z3950v3.asn</code>, <code class="filename">esupdate.asn</code>,
and others.
