NAME
       asn1_expand_octet_string - API function

SYNOPSIS
       #include <libtasn1.h>

       asn1_retCode asn1_expand_octet_string(ASN1_TYPE definitions, ASN1_TYPE * element, const char * octetName, const char * objectName);

ARGUMENTS
       ASN1_TYPE definitions
		   ASN1 definitions

       ASN1_TYPE * element
		   pointer to an ASN1 structure

       const char * octetName
		   name of the OCTECT STRING field to expand.

       const char * objectName
		   name of the OBJECT IDENTIFIER field to use to define the type for expansion.

DESCRIPTION
       Expands an "OCTET STRING" element of a structure created from a DER decoding process (the asn1_der_decoding() function).  The type used for
       expansion is the first one following the definition of the actual value of the OBJECT IDENTIFIER indicated by OBJECTNAME.

RETURNS
       ASN1_SUCCESS if substitution OK, ASN1_ELEMENT_NOT_FOUND if objectName or octetName are not correct, ASN1_VALUE_NOT_VALID if it wasn't  pos-
       sible to find the type to use for expansion, or other errors depending on DER decoding.
