The macro exists: ber_pvt_ber_write() in libraries/liblber/lber-int.h. I'll be introducing a new function ber_tag_t ber_skip_element(BerElement *ber, struct berval *contents); or something like that, you might find that useful instead. Will point *contents into the BerElement, with no alloc or \0-termination. -- Hallvard
