NAME

asn1_encode_simple_der - API function

SYNOPSIS

#include <libtasn1.h>

int asn1_encode_simple_der(unsigned int etype, const unsigned char * str, unsigned int str_len, unsigned char * tl, unsigned int * tl_len);

ARGUMENTS

unsigned int etype: The type of the string to be encoded (ASN1_ETYPE_)
const unsigned char * str: the string data.
unsigned int str_len: the string length
unsigned char * tl: the encoded tag and length
unsigned int * tl_len: the bytes of the tl field

DESCRIPTION

Creates the DER encoding for various simple ASN.1 types like strings etc. It stores the tag and length in tl , which should have space for at least ASN1_MAX_TL_SIZE bytes. Initially tl_len should contain the size of tl .

The complete DER encoding should consist of the value in tl appended with the provided str .

RETURNS
