Welcome to the Distinguished Name library

This library was made to help you with parsing, creating and checking for equality various Distinguished Name strings by the RFC2253 v2 format.

Current functionality

At this moment, there are following functionalities supported:

• Parsing of DN strings - for a given Distinguished Name string the library will try to parse it into the Distinguished Name object, with the list of Relative Distinguished Name child objects (if they exist in string).
• Creation of DN string - for created Distinguished Name object (with the list of Relative Distinguished Name child objects) the library created the Distinguished Name string.
• Check of Equality - you can check if two Distinguished Name objects are equal - this is being done by checking if both objects contain Relative Distinguished Name child objects with the equal types and names (and their order if set).
