52 ** which consists of a single component does not require a second dummy

76 ** pointer directly as a "void *" so we must store it separately and
77 ** dereference it to get at the function pointer itself.

267 * Type of the function pointer used for grabbing encoded bytes.
268 * This can be used during either encoding or decoding, as follows...
270 * When decoding, this can be used to filter the encoded bytes as they
271 * are parsed. This is what you would do if you wanted to process the data
272 * along the way (like to decrypt it, or to perform a hash on it in order
273 * to do a signature check later). See SEC_ASN1DecoderSetFilterProc().
274 * When processing only part of the encoded bytes is desired, you "watch"
275 * for the field(s) you are interested in with a "notify proc" (see
276 * SEC_ASN1DecoderSetNotifyProc()) and for even finer granularity (e.g. to
277 * ignore all by the contents bytes) you pay attention to the "data_kind"
278 * parameter.
280 * When encoding, this is the specification for the output function which
281 * will receive the bytes as they are encoded. The output function can
282 * perform any postprocessing necessary (like hashing (some of) the data
283 * to create a digest that gets included at the end) as well as shoving
284 * the data off wherever it needs to go. (In order to "tune" any processing,
285 * you can set a "notify proc" as described above in the decoding case.)
287 * The parameters:
288 * - "arg" is an opaque pointer that you provided at the same time you
289 * specified a function of this type
290 * - "data" is a buffer of length "len", containing the encoded bytes
291 * - "depth" is how deep in a nested encoding we are (it is not usually
292 * valuable, but can be useful sometimes so I included it)
293 * - "data_kind" tells you if these bytes are part of the ASN.1 encoded
294 * octets for identifier, length, contents, or end-of-contents
