X509_INFO_NEW(3) FreeBSD Library Functions Manual X509_INFO_NEW(3)
NAME
X509_INFO_new, X509_INFO_free - X.509 certificate wrapper object
SYNOPSIS
#include <openssl/x509.h>
X509_INFO *
X509_INFO_new(void);
void
X509_INFO_free(X509_INFO *info);
DESCRIPTION
X509_INFO is a reference-counted wrapper object storing a pointer to an
X.509 certificate together with pointers to the associated private key
and to an associated certificate revocation list. It is for example used
internally by X509_load_cert_crl_file(3).
X509_INFO_new() allocates and initializes an empty X509_INFO object and
sets its reference count to 1.
X509_INFO_free() decrements the reference count of info by 1. If the
reference count reaches 0, it frees all referenced objects as well as the
storage needed for info itself. If info is a NULL pointer, no action
occurs.
RETURN VALUES
X509_INFO_new() returns the newly allocated X509_INFO object or NULL if
an error occurs.
