Systems Tester 3.3.0.5 Fixed problems

APAR Information	Synopsis	Release Notes Text
PM12843	tciGetDefiningModule returns unexpected value	Support for 'address' type has been improved. Now tciGetDefiningModule() and t3rt_type_definition_module() functions return "<builtin>" for built in address representation, and for redefined address module of its original definition. Also subtype restrictions are considered.
PM28657	Error in the bit2int function : "cannot be converted into an integer due to overflow"	Big integer support has been introduced in Tester run-time library, so no integer overflow will be generated now.
PM41908	Behavior for DEFAULT value handling in asn files	Two new runtime options have been introduced, as per ETSI ES 201 873-7, NOTE 12, that control behaviour of fields with DEFAULT values. The boolean option "t3asn.default_value.encode" controls whether the default field with is present in the encoded message (``true'') or omitted (``false'', default value). The boolean option "t3asn.default_value.omit" controls if Ttcn field value will be set to ``omit'' (``true'', default value) or its default value (``false'') when absent in the decoded message. The syntax for configuration file is <option> [<type>] = <value> example: "t3asn.default_value.omit boolean = true" Note also that the both options have their meanings only in case ASN.1 codecs are configured.
PM42461	ERROR VAL0011: Value 'element' cannot be assigned to the element 0	The runtime error caused by using type subscripting has been fixed.

PM44494	Unable to open a file from a multiproject area in a single workspace	Issue with navigating to a file from output window in multi project workspace has been fixed.
PM44969	Failed to generate codec for asn1 type!!	The problem with code generation for ASN.1 synonym whose base type is defined in another module has been solved.
PM45429	Possible Memory Leak during Execution	Several memory leaks in generated code were fixed.
PM45968	Runtime Error - ERROR GRL0014	Now implicit array types are named independent of modules order.
PM46286	Execution error using 'permutation' operation	Possible error and crash that could occurred when assigning array with list expression containing that array elements has been fixed.
PM46571	t3rt_type_get_encoder() returens null pointer	- For imported ASN.1 definitions, only predefined encode and variant attributes are taken into account for encode/decode type fields generation. - Fixed bug with invalid propagation of `with' statements for `import all'
PM48460	Building error using new ETSI Delivery IWD_11wk37	The problem with undefined type structures for implicit template defined in another module has been solved.
PM48680	Template Octetstring error-GRL0001: Value 'string_value' must be charstring, bitstring, octetstring or hexstring'	Runtime error caused by valueof operation has been fixed.
PM50279	VAL0011: Value 'rvalue' cannot be assigned to the value 'lvalue' of Type ..	Run-time error caused by particular usage of modified templates has been solved.
