B<ASN1_STRING> is used to +represent all the ASN1 string types. + +ASN1_STRING_print_ex() outputs B<str> to B<out>, the format is determined by +the options B<flags>. ASN1_STRING_print_ex_fp() is identical except it outputs +to B<fp> instead. + +ASN1_STRING_print() prints B<str> to B<out> but using a different format to +ASN1_STRING_print_ex(). It replaces unprintable characters (other than CR, LF) +with '.'. + +=head1 NOTES + +ASN1_STRING_print() is a legacy function which should be avoided in new applications. + +Although there are a large number of options frequently B<ASN1_STRFLGS_RFC2253> is +suitable, or on UTF8 terminals B<ASN1_STRFLGS_RFC2253 & ~ASN1_STRFLGS_ESC_MSB>. + +The complete set of supported options for B<flags> is listed below. + +Various characters can be escaped. If B<ASN1_STRFLGS_ESC_2253> is set the characters +determined by RFC2253 are escaped. If B<ASN1_STRFLGS_ESC_CTRL> is set control +characters are escaped. If B<ASN1_STRFLGS_ESC_MSB> is set characters with the +MSB set are escaped: this option should B<not> be used if the terminal correctly +interprets UTF8 sequences. + +Escaping takes several forms. + +If the character being escaped is a 16 bit character then the form "\UXXXX" is used +using exactly four characters for the hex representation. If it is 32 bits then +"\WXXXXXXXX" is used using eight characters of its hex representation. These forms +will only be used if UTF8 conversion is not set (see below). + +Printable characters are normally escaped using the backslash '\' character. If +B<ASN1_STRFLGS_ESC_QUOTE> is set then the whole string is instead surrounded by +double quote characters: this is arguably more readable than the backslash +notation. Other characters use the "\XX" using exactly two characters of the hex +representation. + +If B<ASN1_STRFLGS_UTF8_CONVERT> is set then characters are converted to UTF8 +format first. If the terminal supports the display of UTF8 sequences then this +option will correctly display multi byte characters. + +If B<ASN1_STRFLGS_IGNORE_TYPE> is set then the string type is not interpreted at +all: everything is assumed to be one byte per character. This is primarily for +debugging purposes and can result in confusing output in multi character strings. + +If B<ASN1_STRFLGS_SHOW_TYPE> is set then the string type itself is printed out +before its value (for example "BMPSTRING"), this actually uses ASN1_tag2str(). + +The content of a string instead of being interpreted can be "dumped": this just +outputs the value of the string using the form #XXXX using hex format for each +octet. + +If B<ASN1_STRFLGS_DUMP_ALL> is set then any type is dumped. + +Normally non character string types (such as OCTET STRING) are assumed to be +one byte per character, if B<ASN1_STRFLGS_DUMP_UNKNOWN> is set then they will +be dumped instead. + +When a type is dumped normally just the content octets are printed, if +B<ASN1_STRFLGS_DUMP_DER> is set then the complete encoding is dumped +instead (including tag and length octets). + +B<ASN1_STRFLGS_RFC2253> includes all the flags required by RFC2253. It is +equivalent to: + ASN1_STRFLGS_ESC_2253 | ASN1_STRFLGS_ESC_CTRL | ASN1_STRFLGS_ESC_MSB | + ASN1_STRFLGS_UTF8_CONVERT | ASN1_STRFLGS_DUMP_UNKNOWN ASN1_STRFLGS_DUMP_DER + +=head1 SEE ALSO + +L<X509_NAME_print_ex(3)|X509_NAME_print_ex(3)>, +L<ASN1_tag2str(3)|ASN1_tag2str(3)> + +=head1 HISTORY + +TBA + +=cut |
