There is no such function in general, since the are many potential string forms of X.509 names, not all of which are unambiguously machine readable. There are various functions for augmenting a partially built name with an attribute-value pair, but the parsing of a string a list of such attribute-value pairs is up to you. :-( -- Viktor.
