Provided by: libtasn1-6-dev_4.13-2_amd64 bug

NAME
       asn1_octet_der - API function


SYNOPSIS
       #include <libtasn1.h>

       void asn1_octet_der(const unsigned char * str, int str_len, unsigned char * der, int * der_len);


ARGUMENTS
       const unsigned char * str
                   the input data.

       int str_len STR length (str[0]..str[*str_len-1]).

       unsigned char * der
                   encoded string returned.

       int * der_len
                   number of meaningful bytes of DER (der[0]..der[der_len-1]).


DESCRIPTION
       Creates  a  length-value  DER  encoding  for  the input data.  The DER encoding of the input data will be
       placed in the  der variable.

       Note that the OCTET STRING tag is not included in the output.

       This function does not return any value because it is expected that  der_len will contain enough bytes to
       store the string plus the DER encoding. The DER encoding size can be obtained using asn1_length_der().
