[openss7] Re: tcap question??

Ajay,

Well, no, there are not any new "codecs" files.  The
SCCP and TCAP implemented in the OpenSS7 stack performs
hardwired encoding and decoding in C.  I have not
worked on these files in some years.  They were primarily
an example of how to parse and display SS7 messages in
C++.  They should not be that difficult to extend, however,
with the proper specifications in hand.

Is anyone interested in funding work to expand these files
into a "monitor" for the OpenSS7 stack?
