asn1_retCode asn1_der_coding(ASN1_TYPE element, const char * name, void * ider, int * len, char * ErrorDescription);

ARGUMENTS

ASN1_TYPE element
    pointer to an ASN1 element

const char * name
    the name of the structure you want to encode (it must be inside *POINTER).

void * ider
    vector that will contain the DER encoding. DER must be a pointer to memory cells already allocated.

int * len
    number of bytes of *ider: ider[0]..ider[len-1], Initialy holds the sizeof of der vector.

char * ErrorDescription

DESCRIPTION
Creates the DER encoding for the NAME structure (inside *POINTER structure).

ASN1_SUCCESS
DER encoding OK.

ASN1_ELEMENT_NOT_FOUND
