💖 shishi_der2asn1_methoddata(3) — the shishi girlies' guide 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the shishi section of the manual, page shishi_der2asn1_methoddata(3). this is the one that takes your DER-encoded bytes and hands you back a whole ASN.1 structure. it's giving glow-up, honestly. 🦋

✨ NAME ✨

shishi_der2asn1_methoddata — it's an API function, and it's lowkey iconic for it 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <shishi.h>

Shishi_asn1 shishi_der2asn1_methoddata(Shishi * handle, const char *
der, size_t derlen);

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • Shishi * handle — your shishi handle, aka the one you got from shishi_init(). no handle, no service, periodt. ✨
  • const char * der — an input character array holding the DER encoding. that's the raw material, the little byte bestie we're about to decode. 🍓
  • size_t derlen — the length of that input character array with the DER encoding. yes, you have to tell it how long it is. it's not psychic, it's a C function. 😭

👑 DESCRIPTION 👑

Decode DER encoding of METHOD-DATA and create a ASN.1 structure.

that's it, that's the whole plot. you hand over the DER bytes, it does its little decode dance, and you get an ASN.1 structure out the other side. main character energy fr fr. 🔥

🌈 RETURN VALUE 🌈

Returns ASN.1 structure corresponding to DER data.

so like, the ASN.1 structure that matches your DER data. matching set, no cap. 💜

💀 REPORTING BUGS 💀

found a bug? don't suffer in silence, bestie, tell the people:

Report bugs to <bug-shishi@gnu.org>.

ok but fr, they want to hear about it. bugs hate being ignored more than you hate being left on read. 🫶
