Installing Quick DER

Quick DER logo

The basic installation that provides you with the library:

./configure
make all
make install

Other customary build targets include clean, uninstall.

There a few additional utilities that you may need to use alongside Quick DER.

  • Include files based on standards, such as RFCs. The intention is to have a growing set of standards-based include files that can readily be included into a DER project for analysis with Quick-DER. To build those, there is a need to have an executable asn2quickder installed while building Quick DER. You can find the tool in the asn2quickder webpage. This tool is based on asn1ate and relies on pyparsing. Note that asn2quickder is "good enough" for the mapping of at least an important part of the RFCs, but it is work that can still be improved.

  • A utility derdump that is dumps even wrongly formatted DER-encoded data. This is extremely useful to ASN.1 developers, and there does not seem to be a comparable tool anywhere else (?) You can find the tool in the hexio which is suggested as a co-install for Quick DER.
