asn1_expand_octet_string(3)
NAME
asn1_expand_octet_string - API function
SYNOPSIS
#include <libtasn1.h> asn1_retCode asn1_expand_octet_string(ASN1_TYPE definitions, ASN1_TYPE * element, const char * octetName, const char * objectName);
ARGUMENTS
- ASN1_TYPE definitions
- ASN1 definitions
- ASN1_TYPE * element
- pointer to an ASN1 structure
- const char * octetName
- name of the OCTECT STRING field to expand.
- const char * objectName
- name of the OBJECT IDENTIFIER field to use to define the type for expansion.
DESCRIPTION
Expands an "OCTET STRING" element of a structure created from a DER
decoding process (the asn1_der_decoding() function). The type used for
expansion is the first one following the definition of the actual value
of the OBJECT IDENTIFIER indicated by OBJECTNAME.
RETURNS
ASN1_SUCCESS if substitution OK, ASN1_ELEMENT_NOT_FOUND if objectName
or octetName are not correct, ASN1_VALUE_NOT_VALID if it wasn't possible to find the type to use for expansion, or other errors depending on
DER decoding.
