.SH NAME
asn1_der_decoding \- API function
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B #include <libtasn1.h>
.sp
.BI "int asn1_der_decoding(asn1_node * " element ", const void * " ider ", int " ider_len ", char * " errorDescription ");"
.SH ARGUMENTS
.IP "asn1_node * element" 12
pointer to an ASN1 structure.
.IP "const void * ider" 12
vector that contains the DER encoding.
.IP "int ider_len" 12
number of bytes of * \fIider\fP :  \fIider\fP [0].. \fIider\fP [len\-1].
.IP "char * errorDescription" 12
null\-terminated string contains details when an
error occurred.
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
Fill the structure * \fIelement\fP with values of a DER encoding
string. The structure must just be created with function
\fBasn1_create_element()\fP. 

Note that the * \fIelement\fP variable is provided as a pointer for
historical reasons.
.SH "RETURNS"
\fBASN1_SUCCESS\fP if DER encoding OK, \fBASN1_ELEMENT_NOT_FOUND\fP
if  \fIELEMENT\fP is \fBNULL\fP, and \fBASN1_TAG_ERROR\fP or
\fBASN1_DER_ERROR\fP if the der encoding doesn't match the structure
