NAME asn1_der_decoding_element - API function
SYNOPSIS #include <libtasn1.h>
int asn1_der_decoding_element(asn1_node * structure, const char * elementName, const void * ider, int len, char * errorDescription);
ARGUMENTS asn1_node * structure pointer to an ASN1 structure
const char * elementName name of the element to fill
const void * ider vector that contains the DER encoding of the whole structure.
int len number of bytes of *der: der[0]..der[len-1]
char * errorDescription null-terminated string contains details when an error occurred.
DESCRIPTION Fill the element named ELEMENTNAME with values of a DER encoding string. The structure must just be created with function asn1_create_element(). The DER vector must contain the encoding string of the whole STRUCTURE . If an error occurs during the decoding procedure, the * STRUCTURE is deleted and set equal to NULL.
This function is deprecated and may just be an alias to asn1_der_decoding in future versions. Use asn1_der_decoding() instead.
RETURNS ASN1_SUCCESS if DER encoding OK, ASN1_ELEMENT_NOT_FOUND if ELEMENT is NULL or elementName == NULL, and ASN1_TAG_ERROR or ASN1_DER_ERROR if the der encoding doesn't match the structure structure (*ELEMENT deleted).
