The way the object store is currently set up the the actual data does need
to be asn.1 encoded. If you want to store a blob of data you can store it
as an asn.1 encoded octetstring.

What was the error you were getting? we never tried to do this, but
I do not see what it would not work. There might be some dependencies
on things in OSSRV and of course asn.1.


Here is my response. I am getting a compile time error when I try to compile
the ostest.cpp file. I have appended my response at the end. Apparently it
is becuase it cannot find the definitions of the members of ObjStoreData
which have been explicitly instantiated. 

Thanks for your help
