Provided by: libtasn1-6-dev_4.19.0-3ubuntu0.24.10.1_amd64 bug

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).
