Z39.50: Implementation of Z39.50 Information Retrieval protocol
NISO Z39.50 is a protocol used by libraries and library vendors for information retrieval and catalog manipulation. It is defined using ASN.1 using BER encoding. It has an assigned TCP port of 210. This is an initial implementation. Features: - The Z39.50 standard OIDs are defined. - The bib-1 attribute set is decoded. - The bib-1 diagnostics are decoded. - Some OCTET STRINGs which are nearly always printable ASCII are special-cased. - The MARC (MAchine Readable Cataloging) format is decoded. Only the MARC21 variant is currently handled, but this is one of the most common variants. The most common tags are decoded. The MARC dissector is included in the Z39.50 dissector, but the code is structured in such away that it could be pulled out. Todo: - Add information to the Wiki about Z39.50. As part of this work, the definition of isdigit_string() was fixed to avoid const complaints.
