NAME

       asn1_bit_der - API function

SYNOPSIS

       #include <libtasn1.h>

       void asn1_bit_der(const unsigned char * str, int bit_len, unsigned char * der, int * der_len);

ARGUMENTS

       const unsigned char * str
                   BIT string.

       int bit_len number of meaningful bits in STR.

       unsigned char * der
                   string returned.

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

DESCRIPTION

       Creates  a  length-value DER encoding for the input data as it would have been for a BIT STRING.  The DER
       encoded data will be copied in  der .

       Note that the BIT 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().
