Description

asn1_der_decoding(3)               libtasn1               asn1_der_decoding(3)



NAME
       asn1_der_decoding - API function

SYNOPSIS
       #include <libtasn1.h>

       int  asn1_der_decoding(asn1_node  *  element,  const  void  * ider, int
       ider_len, char * errorDescription);

ARGUMENTS
       asn1_node * element
                   pointer to an ASN1 structure.

       const void * ider
                   vector that contains the DER encoding.

       int ider_len
                   number of bytes of * ider :  ider [0].. ider [len-1].

       char * errorDescription
                   null-terminated  string  contains  details  when  an  error
                   occurred.

DESCRIPTION
       Fill  the structure * element with values of a DER encoding string. The
       structure must just be created with function asn1_create_element().

       Note that the * element variable is provided as a pointer for  histori-
       cal reasons.

RETURNS
       ASN1_SUCCESS  if DER encoding OK, ASN1_ELEMENT_NOT_FOUND if  ELEMENT is
       NULL, and ASN1_TAG_ERROR or ASN1_DER_ERROR if the der encoding  doesn't
       match the structure name (* ELEMENT deleted).
