X500::RDN - handle X.500 RDNs (Relative Distinguished Names), parse and format them SYNOPSIS
use X500::RDN; my $rdn = new X500::RDN ('c'=>'DE'); my $c = $rdn->getAttributeValue ('c'); DESCRIPTION
This module handles X.500 RDNs (Relative Distinguished Names). This is a supporting module for X500::DN. Methods o $object = new X500::RDN ('type'=>'value', 'type'=>'value', ...); Creates an RDN object from argument pairs, each pair an attribute type and value. With more than one pair as arguments, you will get a multi-valued RDN. o $object->isMultivalued(); Returns whether the RDN is multi-valued. o $object->getAttributeTypes(); Returns the RDN's attribute types, a list of strings. o $object->getAttributeValue (type); Returns the RDN attribute's value. o $object->getRFC2253String(); Returns the RDN as a string formatted according to RFC 2253 syntax. o $object->getX500String(); Returns the RDN as a string formatted according to X.500 syntax. NOTE: This is a hack, there is no definition for a X.500 string syntax!? o $object->getOpenSSLString(); Returns the RDN as a string formatted according to one of openssl's syntaxes. Croaks on multi-valued RDNs. EXPORT None. BUGS
