How can I decode concatenated PDUs coming from a TCP/IP socket?

The example available for download illustrates how you can do it. The project creates two console executables, "server" and "client". First run the server and then the client from two separate console windows. The client reads a file with BER encoded concatenated PDUs based on the bcas.asn syntax, then writes the contents to a TCP/IP socket. The server, listening to the socket, then reads all the PDUs from the socket and decodes them.

The VC++ example in concatsocket.windows.zip requires you to link the OSS socket memory manager, osssmgmt.obj, along with the soeddefa.lib /MT static library. You should use the /MT C-compiler option when C-compiling. The UNIX project in concatsocket.unix.zip requires osssmgmt.o.

If you target an operating system other than Windows or UNIX, you can also use either of these zip files and discard the Windows- or UNIX-specific files.
