1=pod 2 3=head1 NAME 4 5ASN1_STRING_new, ASN1_STRING_type_new, ASN1_STRING_free - 6ASN1_STRING allocation functions 7 8=head1 SYNOPSIS 9 10 #include <openssl/asn1.h> 11 12 ASN1_STRING *ASN1_STRING_new(void); 13 ASN1_STRING *ASN1_STRING_type_new(int type); 14 void ASN1_STRING_free(ASN1_STRING *a); 15 16=head1 DESCRIPTION 17 18ASN1_STRING_new() returns an allocated B<ASN1_STRING> structure. Its type 19is undefined. 20 21ASN1_STRING_type_new() returns an allocated B<ASN1_STRING> structure of 22type I<type>. 23 24ASN1_STRING_free() frees up I<a>. 25If I<a> is NULL nothing is done. 26 27=head1 NOTES 28 29Other string types call the B<ASN1_STRING> functions. For example 30ASN1_OCTET_STRING_new() calls ASN1_STRING_type_new(V_ASN1_OCTET_STRING). 31 32=head1 RETURN VALUES 33 34ASN1_STRING_new() and ASN1_STRING_type_new() return a valid 35B<ASN1_STRING> structure or NULL if an error occurred. 36 37ASN1_STRING_free() does not return a value. 38 39=head1 SEE ALSO 40 41L<ERR_get_error(3)> 42 43=head1 COPYRIGHT 44 45Copyright 2002-2023 The OpenSSL Project Authors.
