NAME¶
ASN1_STRING_new, ASN1_STRING_type_new, ASN1_STRING_free - ASN1_STRING allocation
functions
SYNOPSIS¶
#include <openssl/asn1.h>
ASN1_STRING * ASN1_STRING_new(void);
ASN1_STRING * ASN1_STRING_type_new(int type);
void ASN1_STRING_free(ASN1_STRING *a);
DESCRIPTION¶
ASN1_STRING_new() returns an allocated
ASN1_STRING structure. Its
type is undefined.
ASN1_STRING_type_new() returns an allocated
ASN1_STRING structure
of type
type.
ASN1_STRING_free() frees up
a.
NOTES¶
Other string types call the
ASN1_STRING functions. For example
ASN1_OCTET_STRING_new() calls ASN1_STRING_type(V_ASN1_OCTET_STRING).
RETURN VALUES¶
ASN1_STRING_new() and
ASN1_STRING_type_new() return a valid
ASN1_STRING structure or
NULL if an error occurred.
ASN1_STRING_free() does not return a value.
