DERViewerPlugin

Purpose

Used to view digital certifcates, pkcs#7 data and other security related files

Description

The plugin is a toolwindow that displays the structure of DER encoded files such as digital certificates, PKCS#7 or S/MIME messages.

Using

Once installed the plugin can be accessed from the Project Pane. You can right-click on any file and choose ASN.1 Viewer | View. The toolwindow will then appear with the structure and hex views.

If autoscroll is enabled then when you select a node in the tree the corresponding hex will be highlighted.

You can save any node from the tree. The save dialog has the option to omit the leading encoding. This is useful for saving Octet or Bit Strings.
