pub struct IndefiniteLength(/* private fields */);
Available on crate feature pkcs8 only.
Expand description

Length type with support for indefinite lengths as used by ASN.1 BER, as described in X.690 Section 8.1.3.6:

8.1.3.6 For the indefinite form, the length octets indicate that the contents octets are terminated by end-of-contents octets (see 8.1.5), and shall consist of a single octet.

8.1.3.6.1 The single octet shall have bit 8 set to one, and bits 7 to 1 set to zero.

8.1.3.6.2 If this form of length is used, then end-of-contents octets (see 8.1.5) shall be present in the encoding following the contents octets.

Indefinite lengths are non-canonical and therefore invalid DER, however there are interoperability corner cases where we have little choice but to tolerate some BER productions where this is helpful.
