If you encode data with DER or CER, all BER-conformant decoders + will easily understand that. Hence, to encode data in the BER format, + simply use the DER encoder, der_encode(). + + See also: ISO/IEC 8825-1 / X.690: + "ASN.1 encoding rules: Specification of + Basic Encoding Rules (BER), + Canonical Encoding Rules (CER) and + Distinguished Encoding Rules (DER)" + |
