../../asn1/lpp/lpp.cnf:1328: warning: this decimal constant is unsigned only in ISO C90

The offending code is

static int
dissect_lpp_INTEGER_M2147483648_2147483647(tvbuff_t *tvb _U_, int offset _U_, asn1_ctx_t *actx _U_, proto_tree *tree _U_, int hf_index _U_) {
   offset = dissect_per_constrained_integer(tvb, offset, actx, tree, hf_index,
                                                             -2147483648, 2147483647U, NULL, FALSE);

   return offset;
}

The two integral constants in that call correspond to guint32 arguments; the first of those is, obviously, negative.

ITU-T Recommendation X.680 says

        3.8.40  integer type: A simple type with distinguished values which are the positive and negative whole numbers, including zero (as a single value).

                NOTE – Particular encoding rules limit the range of an integer, but such limitations are chosen so as not to affect any user of ASN.1.

and I don't see anything about a type that includes only the positive whole numbers, including zero - i.e., no unsigned type - so perhaps, if we're to strictly interpret ASN.1, either all integral types should be signed, and any integral type with values>  2147483647 should be 64-bit (or we should introduce bignums so that we don't have to bail out on *any* ASN.1 number) or, at least, all *unconstrained* integral types should be signed and 64-bit (or, if we introduce bignums, bignum), with only integral types constrained to a minimum value>= 0 unsigned, and with the width of the type chosen based on the constraints.

The right short-term fix might be to make the arguments to dissect_per_constrained_integer() be gint64 rather than guint32 - and perhaps have the pointer for the returned value be a gint64 * rather than a guint32 *.

Yes I vote for that.

Hi Guy and Anders,

sorry for the breakage, it was compiling fine with both my Ubuntu and  Windows boxes :/

By modifying a bit asn2wrs.py so as to add G_GINT64_CONSTANT for -2^31 also fixes the compilation but I'm not sure this is the best idea...

Hi,

According to http://stackoverflow.com/questions/9941261/warning-this-decimal-constant-is-unsigned-only-in-iso-c90 the warning we see is expected (that's why INT32_MIN is defined as (-INT32_MAX - 1L) for example).
Does the use of the G_GINT64_CONSTANT macro for this specific value (as done in the patch above) seems an acceptable workaround for everybody?
Alternatively we could change asn2wrs.py so as to replace -2^31 by G_MININT32 (that also removes the warning).

Unless anyone objects in the next few days, I intend to replace -2^31 by G_MININT32 and move the impacted ASN.1 dissectors from dirty to clean library.

Regards,
Pascal.
