<td class="print-category">Description</td>
<td colspan="5" class="print">In a user scenario, the same data shall
sometimes be encoded with different encodings which have different
variant attributes to configure the codec.<br />
<br />
This is not easily accomplished by TTCN-3 at the moment as any
type/member can only have one encode/variant attribute (or the semantics
of multiplicity of such attributes is unspecified) and the variant
attribute is tied to the encoding attribute. Thus, you would need two
copies of the same type system with different attributes attached and,
following that, copies of all the templates for these types, as well and
selection expressions at all usage points which makes the whole thing
very hard to manage.<br />
<br />
What would be necessary to achieve the single-type/template approach
would be to allow, at least on the type definition level, to add
multiple encode/variant attributes and to somehow tag variant attributes
with the encoding rule they are tied to.<br />
<br />
Care must also be taken on the TCI level with the functions getType()
getTypeEncoding() getTypeEncodingVariant() getValueEncoding() and
getValueEncodingVariant(). Ideally, a codec should be unaware of the
encoding/variant multiplicity and still work with the assumption that
the value-encoding of the template to be encoded establishes the
relevant encoding context.</td>
