NAME

X500::DN::Marpa::RDN - Backcompat module to emulate the RDN part of X500::DN

Synopsis

See "Synopsis" in X500::DN::Marpa::DN.

Description

X500::DN::Marpa::RDN provides a Marpa::R2-based parser for parsing X.500 Relative Distinguished Names.

This module emulates the RDN parts of X500::DN.

Actually, objects of type X500::DN::Marpa::RDN are returned by "getRDN($n)" in X500::DN::Marpa::DN, so you may not need to use this module directly at all.

But if you do create such an object directly, you must call $rdn -> parse($an_rdn) before calling any other methods.

See also X500::DN::Marpa and X500::DN::Marpa::DN.
