Query regarding BER/DER encoding of CMS data

2003-08-14 09:29:00

Hi,

  When i go through the CMS RFC's its saying, all the
contenttype(SignedData,EnvelopedData) should be BER
encoded. But when i go thorugh the some of the ietf
examples, especially in EnvelopedData->RecipientInfo
is encoded by DER.(its starting with 31 82 ..). It
should be like sequence 30 80 .. ? 

Could you please explain why was it happend ?

Thanks,
Deepak
