SILC_ASN1_GENERAL_STRING

SYNOPSIS

    Encoding:
    SILC_ASN1_GENERAL_STRING(str, str_len)
    SILC_ASN1_GENERAL_STRING_T(opts, tag, str, str_len)

    Decoding:
    SILC_ASN1_GENERAL_STRING(&str, &str_len)
    SILC_ASN1_GENERAL_STRING_T(opts, tag, &str, &str_len)

DESCRIPTION

Macro used to encode or decode general string. The string type is unsigned char and string length SilcUInt32.

The `opts' is SilcAsn1Options. The `tag' is a tag number.

NOTES

The string must be in UTF-8 encoding when encoding. The decoded string will be in UTF-8 encoding. The actual data is encoded to or decoded from general. NOTE: this implementation use 8-bit ASCII.
