, B or B UNIVERSAL,
APPLICATION, PRIVATE or CONTEXT SPECIFIC tagging can be used,
the default is CONTEXT SPECIFIC.
=item B, B
This is the same as B except IMPLICIT tagging is used
instead.
=item B, B, B, B
The following structure is surrounded by an OCTET STRING, a SEQUENCE,
a SET or a BIT STRING respectively. For a BIT STRING the number of unused
bits is set to zero.
=item B
This specifies the format of the ultimate value. It should be followed
by a colon and one of the strings B, B, B or B.
If no format specifier is included then B is used. If B is
specified then the value string must be a valid B string. For B the
output must be a set of hex digits. B (which is only valid for a BIT
STRING) is a comma separated list of the indices of the set bits, all other
bits are zero.

=head1 RETURN VALUES
ASN1_generate_nconf() and ASN1_generate_v3() return the encoded
data as an B structure or B if an error occurred.
The error codes that can be obtained by L.
=head1 EXAMPLES
A simple IA5String:
IA5STRING:Hello World
An IA5String explicitly tagged:
EXPLICIT:0,IA5STRING:Hello World
An IA5String explicitly tagged using APPLICATION tagging:
EXPLICIT:0A,IA5STRING:Hello World
A BITSTRING with bits 1 and 5 set and all others zero:
FORMAT:BITLIST,BITSTRING:1,5
A more complex example using a config file to produce a
SEQUENCE consisting of a BOOL an OID and a UTF8String:
asn1 = SEQUENCE:seq_section
[seq_section]
field1 = BOOLEAN:TRUE
field2 = OID:commonName
field3 = UTF8:Third field
This example produces an RSAPrivateKey structure, this is the
key contained in the file client.pem in all OpenSSL distributions
(note: the field names such as 'coeff' are ignored and are present just
for clarity):
asn1=SEQUENCE:private_key

This example is the corresponding public key in a SubjectPublicKeyInfo
structure:
# Start with a SEQUENCE
asn1=SEQUENCE:pubkeyinfo
# pubkeyinfo contains an algorithm identifier and the public key wrapped
# in a BIT STRING
[pubkeyinfo]
algorithm=SEQUENCE:rsa_alg
pubkey=BITWRAP,SEQUENCE:rsapubkey
# algorithm ID for RSA is just an OID and a NULL
[rsa_alg]
algorithm=OID:rsaEncryption
parameter=NULL
# Actual public key: modulus and exponent
