Global and hierarchical state

[masihyeganeh]

I love this rustic implementation of parser using TryFrom but it needs a global state e.g. to support IMPLICIT/EXPLICIT/AUTOMATIC TAGS that will affect all sub structures

Can you link and/or explain what the differences is between IMPLICIT/EXPLICIT/AUTOMATIC TAGS is? With uPER this didn't really matter until now

[masihyeganeh]

Yeah, as I said before, there is a good post in let's encrypt for that:

Hey @kellerkindt,
Could you find spare time to look at this?

[kellerkindt]

TBH, I did not. I don't have a lot of time left over to work on this at the moment. But I want to at some point - maybe at or until Christmas I will have some spare time for this.

Regarding the state tracking and from what I have seen while glossing over the linked article, wouldn't it fit better in the Model type with an additional field?
