More ASN.1...

[Bruce Fitzsimons]

I have a few more questions about the Erlang ASN.1 compiler/runtime.

Given an H.323 TransportAddress definition (used for addressing
packets'n'stuff, definition below) I can get packets decoded with items such
as:

{ipAddress,
    {'TransportAddress_ipAddress',
        [10,151,33,220],
        2634}},

However there doesn't seem to be any way of decoding/interpreting this
directly, inasmuch as there is no auto-generated record definition
'TransportAddress_ipAddress' (or for any of the other choices). This is
contrary to what I would have expected given that other choices do end up
with records for their sub-sequences (such as, for example, the RasMessage
choice - gives 'GatekeeperRequest' etc).

I feel I must be missing something fundamental. I can of course define a
record for myself, but I thought I should ask the question.

Thanks in advance
