Within the CryptoAPI 2.0 version of wincryp.h, I notice that there are
quite a few functions that are not at all documented in the CryptAPI 2.0
documentation.
Some of these functions are as follows:

//          CertEncodeToBeSigned
//              CertEncode
//              CertDecodeToBeSigned
//              CertDecode
//              CertEncodeName
//              CertDecodeName
//              CertEncodeNameValue
//              CertDecodeNameValue
//              CertEncodeExtensions
//              CertDecodeExtensions
//
//              PublicKeyInfoEncode
//              PublicKeyInfoDecode

The only functions documented in the documentation set are the generic
"EncodeObject" and "DecodeObject".
Are these additional functions going to be part of the CryptoAPI 2.0????
Are they documented any where yet other than in the wincrypt.h header file?

Has anyone used these functions yet?  If so, I would love to hear from you.
I would think that they are very useful in generating a certificate with
CAPI 2.0.  The generic EncodeObject and DecodeObject functions are not well
documented and it appears very difficult to generate a certificate using
them.

Thanks,
Timothy Fisher
