Is this library actually working? #481

I tried the latest release of this library and followed the doc to generate the encoder and decoder for the Rectangle.asn but it is giving me a lot of errors :

Then I also tried the master branch but I am not able to build the branch as it is giving: cannot find input file: 'tests/tests-c-compiler/check-src/Makefile.in'

Hi @chetanpandey1266,

Yes, it works. It does not support all modern ASN.1 features but for what it supports it works quite well.

Looks like you are compiling it with a c++ compiler (probably g++). You need to compile it with c compiler (gcc) as c++ is much stricter when it comes to casts from one type to another. You also need to install gcc header as you are missing sysexits.h header file.

Yeah I was using a cpp compiler. My bad
