Hi all,
I used X509_get_subject_name() function to parse a binary X509v3
certificate, my problem is that I don´t know whats the format of the byte
array that this function returns.
It isn't a byte array. It is an X509_NAME structure.
The common name of my certificate has the char "Ü", and the functions
returns the hexadecimal coding of this chararcter as: "ff ff ff dc". I think
that it isn´t a UTF-8 char... but I don´t know what coding is this, neither
how to convert it to UTF-8...
Anyone could help me?
Use the X509_NAME functions to retrieve the commonName field as an
X509_NAME_ENTRY structure. Then the field value as an ASN1_STRING. Finally
from that you can get UTF8 format using ASN1_STRING_to_UTF8().
Steve.
