Thanks for reply.
Ohh that's bad news. So I have will look at the various d2i_XXX and i2d_XXX functions you mentioned.

That attribute is not currently supported.

Someone would have to write ASN1 parsing code.  There are examples all over the place within OpenSSL; see the various d2i_XXX and i2d_XXX functions.  There are macro/define's available to make the job easier.  But, it is not really documented.

Maybe there are other people here who are interested, and could write the code and make a pull request on GitHub.

I doubt the team will get to it quickly.  Sorry, but I just want to be realistic.
