The +B structure is the same as the B type defined in +RFC2459 (and elsewhere) and used for example in certificate subject +and issuer names. + +X509_NAME_get_index_by_NID() and X509_NAME_get_index_by_OBJ() retrieve +the next index matching B or B after B. B +should initially be set to -1. If there are no more entries -1 is returned. + +X509_NAME_entry_count() returns the total number of entries in B. + +X509_NAME_get_entry() retrieves the B from B +corresponding to index B. Acceptable values for B run from +0 to (X509_NAME_entry_count(name) - 1). The value returned is an +internal pointer which must not be freed. + +X509_NAME_get_text_by_NID(), X509_NAME_get_text_by_OBJ() retrieve +the "text" from the first entry in B which matches B or +B, if no such entry exists -1 is returned. At most B bytes +will be written and the text written to B will be null +terminated. The length of the output string written is returned +excluding the terminating null. If B is then the amount +of space needed in B (excluding the final null) is returned. + +=head1 NOTES + +X509_NAME_get_text_by_NID() and X509_NAME_get_text_by_OBJ() are +legacy functions which have various limitations which make them +of minimal use in practice. They can only find the first matching +entry and will copy the contents of the field verbatim: this can +be highly confusing if the target is a muticharacter string type +like a BMPString or a UTF8String. + +For a more general solution X509_NAME_get_index_by_NID() or +X509_NAME_get_index_by_OBJ() should be used followed by +X509_NAME_get_entry() on any matching indices and then the +various B utility functions on the result. + +=head1 EXAMPLES + +Process all entries: + + int i; + X509_NAME_ENTRY *e; + + for (i = 0; i < X509_NAME_entry_count(nm); i++) + { + e = X509_NAME_get_entry(nm, i); + /* Do something with e */ + } + +Process all commonName entries: + + int loc; + X509_NAME_ENTRY *e; + + loc = -1; + for (;;) + { + lastpos = X509_NAME_get_index_by_NID(nm, NID_commonName, lastpos); + if (lastpos == -1) + break; + e = X509_NAME_get_entry(nm, lastpos); + /* Do something with e */ + } + +=head1 RETURN VALUES + +X509_NAME_get_index_by_NID() and X509_NAME_get_index_by_OBJ() +return the index of the next matching entry or -1 if not found. + +X509_NAME_entry_count() returns the total number of entries. + +X509_NAME_get_entry() returns an B pointer to the +requested entry or B if the index is invalid. + +=head1 SEE ALSO + +L, L + +=head1 HISTORY + +TBA + +=cut -- cgit v1.2.3
