Default value management about asn1ate HOT 4 OPEN

The problem is the last component:

sqnInit SEQUENCE (SIZE (3)) OF OCTET STRING (SIZE (6)) DEFAULT {'000000000000'H, '000000000000'H, '000000000000'H }

specifically the curly-brace form on DEFAULT.

We don't yet seem to handle the SequenceOfValue production -- I'm not entirely sure where to put it.

Thank you for your answer. What would you therefore recommend?

I think, and this is a big maybe, that you can omit the DEFAULT clause
entirely.

If I recall correctly, DEFAULTs are handled encode-time, so if you're
decoding, you'll always get a full value. If you're encoding, you'll have
to provide the value explicitly.

That might work.

#24 (comment).

from asn1ate.

From #26 -- this actually runs clean through the parser, but generates nonsense pyasn1 code:

         Clearance  ::=  SEQUENCE {                                          
               policyId       [0] OBJECT IDENTIFIER,
               classList      [1] ClassList DEFAULT {unclassified},
               securityCategories [2] SET OF SecurityCategory  OPTIONAL
         }

Output:

# the subtype(value={unclassified}) part is not valid Python
namedtype.DefaultedNamedType('classList', ClassList().subtype(implicitTag=tag.Tag(tag.tagClassContext, tag.tagFormatSimple, 1)).subtype(value={unclassified})),
