Properties
BoolValue
void put_BoolValue(bool newVal);
The ASN.1 item's boolean value if it is a boolean item.
topConstructed
true if this ASN.1 item is a constructed item. Sequence and Set items are constructed and can contain sub-items. All other tags (boolean, integer, octets, utf8String, etc.) are primitive (non-constructed).
topContentStr
const wchar_t *contentStr(void);
void put_ContentStr(const wchar_t *str);
The ASN.1 item's content if it is an ASN.1 string type (such as Utf8String, BmpString, PrintableString, VisibleString, T61String, IA5String, NumericString, or UniversalString).
topDebugLogFilePath
const wchar_t *debugLogFilePath(void);
void put_DebugLogFilePath(const wchar_t *str);
If set to a file path, this property logs the LastErrorText of each Chilkat method or property call to the specified file. This logging helps identify the context and history of Chilkat calls leading up to any crash or hang, aiding in debugging.
Enabling the VerboseLogging property provides more detailed information. This property is mainly used for debugging rare instances where a Chilkat method call causes a hang or crash, which should generally not happen.
Possible causes of hangs include:
- A timeout property set to 0, indicating an infinite timeout.
- A hang occurring within an event callback in the application code.
- An internal bug in the Chilkat code causing the hang.
IntValue
void put_IntValue(int newVal);
The ASN.1 item's integer value if it is a small integer item.
topLastErrorHtml
Provides HTML-formatted information about the last called method or property. If a method call fails or behaves unexpectedly, check this property for details. Note that information is available regardless of the method call's success.
topLastErrorText
Provides plain text information about the last called method or property. If a method call fails or behaves unexpectedly, check this property for details. Note that information is available regardless of the method call's success.
LastErrorXml
Provides XML-formatted information about the last called method or property. If a method call fails or behaves unexpectedly, check this property for details. Note that information is available regardless of the method call's success.
topLastMethodSuccess
void put_LastMethodSuccess(bool newVal);
Indicates the success or failure of the most recent method call: true means success, false means failure. This property remains unchanged by property setters or getters. This method is present to address challenges in checking for null or Nothing returns in certain programming languages.
topNumSubItems
The number of sub-items contained within this ASN.1 item. Only constructed items, such as Sequence and Set will contain sub-iitems. Primitive items such as OIDs, octet strings, integers, etc. will never contain sub-items.
topTag
The ASN.1 item's tag as a descriptive string. Possible values are:
boolean integer bitString octets null oid utf8String relativeOid sequence set numericString printableString t61String ia5String utcTime bmpStringtop
TagValue
The ASN.1 item's tag as a integer value. The integer values for possible tags are as follows:
boolean (1) integer (2) bitString (3) octets (4) null (5) oid (6) utf8String (12) relativeOid (13) sequence (16) set (17) numericString (18) printableString (19) t61String (20) ia5String (22) utcTime (23) bmpString (30)top
VerboseLogging
void put_VerboseLogging(bool newVal);
If set to true, then the contents of LastErrorText (or LastErrorXml, or LastErrorHtml) may contain more verbose information. The default value is false. Verbose logging should only be used for debugging. The potentially large quantity of logged information may adversely affect peformance.

Methods
AppendBigInt
Appends an ASN.1 integer, but one that is a big (huge) integer that is too large to be represented by an integer variable. The bytes composing the integer are passed in encoded string format (such as base64, hex, etc.). The byte order must be big-endian. The encoding may be any of the following encodings: "Base64", "Hex", "Base58", "modBase64", "Base32", "UU", "QP" (for quoted-printable), "URL" (for url-encoding), "Q", "B", "url_oath", "url_rfc1738", "url_rfc2396", and "url_rfc3986". The encoding name is case insensitive (for example, both "Base64" and "base64" are treated the same).
Returns true for success, false for failure.
AppendBits
Appends an ASN.1 bit string to the caller's sub-items. The bytes containing the bits are passed in encoded string format (such as base64, hex, etc.). The byte order must be big-endian (MSB first). The encoding may be any of the following encodings: "Base64", "Hex", "Base58", "modBase64", "Base32", "UU", "QP" (for quoted-printable), "URL" (for url-encoding), "Q", "B", "url_oath", "url_rfc1738", "url_rfc2396", and "url_rfc3986". The encoding name is case insensitive (for example, both "Base64" and "base64" are treated the same).
Returns true for success, false for failure.
topAppendBool
Appends an ASN.1 boolean item to the caller's sub-items. Items may only be appended to constructed data types such as Sequence and Set.
Returns true for success, false for failure.
topAppendContextConstructed
Appends an ASN.1 context-specific constructed item to the caller's sub-items.
Returns true for success, false for failure.
AppendContextPrimitive
Appends an ASN.1 context-specific primitive item to the caller's sub-items. The bytes are passed in encoded string format (such as base64, hex, etc.).

topAppendString
Appends a string item to the caller's sub-items. The strType specifies the type of string to be added. It may be "utf8", "ia5", "t61", "printable", "visible", "numeric", "universal", or "bmp". The value must conform to the ASN.1 restrictions imposed for a given string type. The "utf8", "bmp", and "universal" types have no restrictions on what characters are allowed. In general, unless a specific type of string is required, choose the "utf8" type.
Returns true for success, false for failure.
topAppendTime
Appends a UTCTime item to the caller's sub-items. The timeFormat specifies the format of the dateTimeStr. It should be set to "utc". (In the future, this method will be expanded to append GeneralizedTime items by using "generalized" for timeFormat.) To append the current date/time, set dateTimeStr equal to the empty string or the keyword "now". Otherwise, the dateTimeStr should be in the UTC time format "YYMMDDhhmm[ss]Z" or "YYMMDDhhmm[ss](+|-)hhmm".
Returns true for success, false for failure.
