This STACK_OF() is of a custom ASN1 type; and is a member of another structure that is also a custom ASN1 structure.

There isn't a precise equivalent but it looks like you need an i2d function to
encode as SET OF. You can do that.

First you need a typedef for the STACK_OF something like:

typedef STACK_OF(FOO) FOOS

Then you create an ASN.1 ITEM template like this:

ASN1_ITEM_TEMPLATE(FOOS) =
        ASN1_EX_TEMPLATE_TYPE(ASN1_TFLG_SET_OF, 0, foos, FOO)
ASN1_ITEM_TEMPLATE_END(FOOS)

You then add IMPLEMENT_ASN1_FUNCTIONS(FOOS) and DECLARE_ASN1_FUINCTION(FOOS).

This will produce new functions i2d_FOOS, d2i_FOOS, FOOS_new() and
FOOS_free() which should do what you want. If you don't want the new/free ones
you can use IMPLEMENT_ASN1_ENCODE_FUNCTIONS instead.

This is used in OpenSSL in a few places such as the implementation of
GeneralNames which is a SEQUENCE_OF GeneralName.
