|
=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
These functions allow an B<ASN1_STRING> structure to be manipulated.
|
|
|
|
ASN1_STRING_length() returns the length of the content of B<x>.
|
|
|
|
ASN1_STRING_data() returns an internal pointer to the data of B<x>.
|
|
Since this is an internal pointer it should B<not> be freed or
|
|
modified in any way.
|
|
|
|
ASN1_STRING_dup() returns a copy of the structure B<a>.
|
|
|
|
ASN1_STRING_cmp() compares B<a> and B<b> returning 0 if the two
|
|
are identical. The string types and content are compared.
|
|
|
|
ASN1_STRING_set() sets the data of string B<str> to the buffer
|
|
B<data> or length B<len>. The supplied data is copied. If B<len>
|
|
is -1 then the length is determined by strlen(data).
|
|
|
|
ASN1_STRING_type() returns the type of B<x>, using standard constants
|
|
such as B<V_ASN1_OCTET_STRING>.
|
|
|
|
ASN1_STRING_to_UTF8() converts the string B<in> to UTF8 format, the
|
|
converted data is allocated in a buffer in B<*out>. The length of
|
|
B<out> is returned or a negative error code. The buffer B<*out>
|
|
should be free using OPENSSL_free().
|
|
|
|
=head1 NOTES
|
|
|
|
Almost all ASN1 types in OpenSSL are represented as an B<ASN1_STRING>
|
|
structure. Other types such as B<ASN1_OCTET_STRING> are simply typedefed
|
|
to B<ASN1_STRING> and the functions call the B<ASN1_STRING> equivalents.
|
|
B<ASN1_STRING> is also used for some B<CHOICE> types which consist
|
|
entirely of primitive string types such as B<DirectoryString> and
|
|
B<Time>.
|
|
|
|
These functions should B<not> be used to examine or modify B<ASN1_INTEGER>
|
|
or B<ASN1_ENUMERATED> types: the relevant B<INTEGER> or B<ENUMERATED>
|
|
utility functions should be used instead.
|
|
|
|
In general it cannot be assumed that the data returned by ASN1_STRING_data()
|
|
is null terminated or does not contain embedded nulls. The actual format
|
|
of the data will depend on the actual string type itself: for example
|
|
for and IA5String the data will be ASCII, for a BMPString two bytes per
|
|
character in big endian format, UTF8String will be in UTF8 format.
|
|
|
|
Similar care should be take to ensure the data is in the correct format
|
|
when calling ASN1_STRING_set().
