Next: Future developments, Previous: Naming, Up: ASN.1 structure handling
The header file of this library is libtasn1.h.
The main type used in it is ASN1_TYPE, and it's used to store
the ASN.1 definitions and structures (instances).
The constant ASN1_TYPE_EMPTY can be used for the variable initialization. For example:
ASN1_TYPE definitions=ASN1_TYPE_EMPTY;
Some functions require a parameter named errorDescription of char*
type. The array must be already allocated and must have at least
MAX_ERROR_DESCRIPTION_SIZE bytes (E.g, as in char
Description[MAX_ERROR_DESCRIPTION_SIZE];).
MAX_NAME_SIZE indicates the maximum number of characters of a
name inside a file with ASN1 definitions.
