       This module handles X.500 RDNs (Relative Distinguished Names).  This is a supporting module for X500::DN.

   Methods
       •   $object = new X500::RDN ('type'=>'value', 'type'=>'value', ...);

           Creates an RDN object from argument pairs, each pair an attribute type and value.  With more than one
           pair as arguments, you will get a multi-valued RDN.

       •   $object->isMultivalued();

           Returns whether the RDN is multi-valued.

       •   $object->getAttributeTypes();

           Returns the RDN's attribute types, a list of strings.

       •   $object->getAttributeValue (type);

           Returns the RDN attribute's value.

       •   $object->getRFC2253String();

           Returns the RDN as a string formatted according to RFC 2253 syntax.

       •   $object->getX500String();

           Returns  the  RDN as a string formatted according to X.500 syntax.  NOTE: This is a hack, there is no
           definition for a X.500 string syntax!?

       •   $object->getOpenSSLString();

           Returns the RDN as a string formatted according to one of openssl's syntaxes.  Croaks on multi-valued
           RDNs.

   EXPORT
       None.
