Class Overview

     Name ::= CHOICE {
                       RDNSequence }

     RDNSequence ::= SEQUENCE OF RelativeDistinguishedName

     RelativeDistinguishedName ::= SET SIZE (1..MAX) OF AttributeTypeAndValue

     AttributeTypeAndValue ::= SEQUENCE {
                                   type  OBJECT IDENTIFIER,
                                   value ANY }
