DER is a binary format for data structures described by ASN.1.

by example x509 is described in ASN1 and encoded in DER. It exists other encoding formats for ASN.1 but DER is the one choose for security since ther is only one possible encoding given a ASN.1. encoding ( what is not the case for BER used in ldap by example ).


command

openssl asn1parse is the command to display internal structure of a DER document.

sample

When using i2d_X509_fp(FILE * outcert, X509 * x509_cert) file result is raw DER encoded value of X509 Certificate.

C code to dump a X509 into DER format : 

void dump_x509_cert(X509* x509_cert)
{
  const char * dumpcertfile = "dumpcertfile";
  if (dumpcertfile != NULL)
    {
      FILE * outcert = fopen(dumpcertfile,"w");
      if ( outcert )
	{
	  i2d_X509_fp(outcert, x509_cert);
	  fclose(outcert);
	}
      else
	{
	  fprintf(stderr,"[ERROR] Can't create server.cert file\n");
	}
    }
}
