NAME
d2i_X509_NAME, i2d_X509_NAME - X509_NAME encoding functions LIBRARY
libcrypto, -lcrypto SYNOPSIS
#include <openssl/x509.h> X509_NAME *d2i_X509_NAME(X509_NAME **a, unsigned char **pp, long length); int i2d_X509_NAME(X509_NAME *a, unsigned char **pp); DESCRIPTION
These functions decode and encode an X509_NAME structure which is the the same as the Name type defined in RFC2459 (and elsewhere) and used for example in certificate subject and issuer names. Othewise the functions behave in a similar way to d2i_X509() and i2d_X509() described in the d2i_X509(3) manual page. SEE ALSO

NAME
x509 - X.509 certificate handling LIBRARY
libcrypto, -lcrypto SYNOPSIS
#include <openssl/x509.h> DESCRIPTION
A X.509 certificate is a structured grouping of information about an individual, a device, or anything one can imagine. A X.509 CRL (certificate revocation list) is a tool to help determine if a certificate is still valid. The exact definition of those can be found in the X.509 document from ITU-T, or in RFC3280 from PKIX. In OpenSSL, the type X509 is used to express such a certificate, and the type X509_CRL is used to express a CRL. A related structure is a certificate request, defined in PKCS#10 from RSA Security, Inc, also reflected in RFC2896. In OpenSSL, the type X509_REQ is used to express such a certificate request. To handle some complex parts of a certificate, there are the types X509_NAME (to express a certificate name), X509_ATTRIBUTE (to express a certificate attributes), X509_EXTENSION (to express a certificate extension) and a few more. Finally, there's the supertype X509_INFO, which can contain a CRL, a certificate and a corresponding private key. X509_..., d2i_X509_... and i2d_X509_... handle X.509 certificates, with some exceptions, shown below. X509_CRL_..., d2i_X509_CRL_... and i2d_X509_CRL_... handle X.509 CRLs. X509_REQ_..., d2i_X509_REQ_... and i2d_X509_REQ_... handle PKCS#10 certificate requests. X509_NAME_... handle certificate names. X509_ATTRIBUTE_... handle certificate attributes. X509_EXTENSION_... handle certificate extensions. SEE ALSO
X509_NAME_ENTRY_get_object(3), X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(3), X509_NAME_add_entry_by_NID(3), X509_NAME_print_ex(3), X509_NAME_new(3), d2i_X509(3), d2i_X509_ALGOR(3), d2i_X509_CRL(3), d2i_X509_NAME(3), d2i_X509_REQ(3), d2i_X509_SIG(3), crypto(3), x509v3(3) 1.0.1i 2009-07-20 x509(3)
