ICertEncodeBitString::Decode method (certenc.h)
The Decode method decodes an Abstract Syntax Notation One (ASN.1)-encoded bit string and stores the resulting bit string in this object. You can then call the ICertEncodeBitString::GetBitCount and ICertEncodeBitString::GetBitString methods to retrieve the bit string and its size.
Syntax
HRESULT Decode(
[in] const BSTR strBinary
);
Parameters
[in] strBinary
An ASN.1-encoded bit string.
Return value
VB
If the method succeeds, the method returns S_OK.If the method fails, it returns an HRESULT value that indicates the error. For a list of common error codes, see Common HRESULT Values.
Remarks
