NAME
asn1_write_value - Set the value of one element inside a structure.
SYNOPSIS
#include <libtasn1.h>
asn1_retCode asn1_write_value(ASN1_TYPE node_root, const char * name,
const void * ivalue, int len);
ARGUMENTS
ASN1_TYPE node_root
pointer to a structure
const char * name
the name of the element inside the structure that you want
to set.
const void * ivalue
vector used to specify the value to set. If len is >0,
VALUE must be a two's complement form integer. if len=0
*VALUE must be a null terminated string with an integer
value.
int len number of bytes of *value to use to set the value:
value[0]..value[len-1] or 0 if value is a null terminated
string
DESCRIPTION
Set the value of one element inside a structure.
If an element is OPTIONAL and you want to delete it, you must use the
value=NULL and len=0. Using "pkix.asn":
result=asn1_write_value(cert, "tbsCertificate.issuerUniqueID", NULL,
0);
DESCRIPTION FOR EACH TYPE
INTEGER
VALUE must contain a two's complement form integer.
value[0]=0xFF , len=1 -> integer=-1. value[0]=0xFF
value[1]=0xFF , len=2 -> integer=-1. value[0]=0x01 ,
len=1 -> integer= 1. value[0]=0x00 value[1]=0x01 , len=2 -> integer=
1. value="123" , len=0 -> integer= 123.
ENUMERATED
As INTEGER (but only with not negative numbers).
BOOLEAN
VALUE must be the null terminated string "TRUE" or "FALSE" and LEN !=
0.
value="TRUE" , len=1 -> boolean=TRUE. value="FALSE" , len=1 -> bool‐
ean=FALSE.
OBJECT IDENTIFIER
VALUE must be a null terminated string with each number separated by a
dot (e.g. "1.2.3.543.1"). LEN != 0.
value="1 2 840 10040 4 3" , len=1 -> OID=dsa-with-sha.
UTCTIME
VALUE must be a null terminated string in one of these formats: "YYMMD‐
DhhmmssZ", "YYMMDDhhmmssZ", "YYMMDDhhmmss+hh'mm'", "YYMMDDhh‐
mmss-hh'mm'", "YYMMDDhhmm+hh'mm'", or "YYMMDDhhmm-hh'mm'". LEN != 0.
value="9801011200Z" , len=1 -> time=Jannuary 1st, 1998 at 12h 00m
Greenwich Mean Time
GENERALIZEDTIME
VALUE must be in one of this format: "YYYYMMDDhhmmss.sZ", "YYYYMMDDhh‐
mmss.sZ", "YYYYMMDDhhmmss.s+hh'mm'", "YYYYMMDDhhmmss.s-hh'mm'", "YYYYM‐
MDDhhmm+hh'mm'", or "YYYYMMDDhhmm-hh'mm'" where ss.s indicates the sec‐
onds with any precision like "10.1" or "01.02". LEN != 0
value="2001010112001.12-0700" , len=1 -> time=Jannuary 1st, 2001 at 12h
00m 01.12s Pacific Daylight Time
OCTET STRING
VALUE coctains tce octetcstring and LEN is the number of octets.
k k k
value="$ssh$x01$ssh$x02$ssh$x03" , len=3 -> three bytes octet string
l l l
GENERALSTRING
VALUE coctains tce generclstring and LEN is the number of octets.
k k k
value="$ssh$x01$ssh$x02$ssh$x03" , len=3 -> three bytes generalstring
l l l
BIT STRING
VALUE contains the bit string organized by bytes and LEN is the number
of bits.c
k
value="$ssh$xCF" , len=6 -> bit string="110011" (six bits)
l
CHOICE
if NAME indicates a choice type, VALUE must specify one of the alterna‐
tives with a null terminated string. LEN != 0. Using "pkix.asn"
result=asn1_write_value(cert, "certificate1.tbsCertificate.subject",
"rdnSequence", 1);
ANY
VALUE indicates the der encoding of a structure. LEN != 0.
SEQUENCE OF
VALUE must be the null terminated string "NEW" and LEN != 0. With this
instruction another element is appended in the sequence. The name of
this element will be "?1" if it's the first one, "?2" for the second
and so on.
Using "pkix.asn"
result=asn1_write_value(cert, "certificate1.tbsCertificate.sub‐
ject.rdnSequence", "NEW", 1);
SET OF
the same as SEQUENCE OF. Using "pkix.asn":
result=asn1_write_value(cert, "tbsCertificate.subject.rdnSe‐
quence.?LAST", "NEW", 1);
RETURNS
ASN1_SUCCESS
Set value OK.
ASN1_ELEMENT_NOT_FOUND
NAME is not a valid element.
ASN1_VALUE_NOT_VALID
VALUE has a wrong format.
