Appendix B: Encoding Example of 1setOf Collection (Informative)
The overall structure of the collection value can be pictorially
represented as:
"media-size-supported" =
{ "x-dimension" = 6;
"y-dimension" = 4
},
{ "x-dimension" = 3;
"y-dimension" = 5
};
A simplified view of the encoding would look like this:
Table 8 - Overview Encoding of 1setOf collection
Tag Value Name Value
begCollection media-size- ""
supported
memberAttrName "" x-dimension
integer "" 6
memberAttrName "" y-dimension
integer "" 4
endCollection "" ""
begCollection "" ""
memberAttrName "" x-dimension
integer "" 3
memberAttrName "" y-dimension
integer "" 5
endCollection "" ""
