Detailed Description
An x.509 directory string is used to store generic names.
Only printable and utf8 are recommended in compliant x.509 v3, but other types are supported for backwards compatibility. ia5 is used in some root certificates.
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5280#section-4.1.2.4
DirectoryString ::= CHOICE { teletexString TeletexString (SIZE (1..MAX)), printableString PrintableString (SIZE (1..MAX)), universalString UniversalString (SIZE (1..MAX)), utf8String UTF8String (SIZE (1..MAX)), bmpString BMPString (SIZE (1..MAX)) }
ia5 and visible are also supported.
Member Function Documentation
◆ compare()
|
inline |
Compare two directory strings.
Strict comparison requires conversion to utf-16 and normalization: https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4518
◆ parse()
| void scc::crypto::DirectoryString::parse | ( | BasePtr | ) |
Parse the string from a base object.
Throws exception if the object is not a string.
