Hi,

You need to replace this line with the name of the top level PPU in your ASN.1 file. For example if you look at the files in asn1/c1222, you will see that the c1222.cnf file contains:
#.PDU
MESSAGE

where MESSAGE is the top PDU in the c1222.asn file.

Then you need to edit the .c file to put the corresponding function name that will be generated by asn2wrs (for c1222 dissector it is dissect_MESSAGE_PDU).

Pascal.
