<td class="print-category">Description</td>
<td colspan="5" class="print">Currently we have an unsymmetry in TTCN-3:
it is allowed to reference types embedded in records and sets but we
cannot refer to types nested in record ofs and set ofs. This issue has
been raised by STF160 as there are many structured types are defined as
nested types in the ASN.1 specs and in case of types nested in
record/set ofs it is not possible to define values or templates of these
types. See proposed text in the attached document. Regarding the syntax
different options would be possible:<br />
- using the index notation and ignoring the index - unpreferred as
suggests referring to an instance;<br />
- using the index notation without the index (empty square brackets) -
preferred<br />
- using the dot notation - unpreferred as inconsistent with record/set
of value notation and record/set of elements do not have names, i.e.
referencing via several levels of embedding would result "empty" dots
like const MyRecOf... c_integer := 5;</td>
