X509_GET_SUBJECT_NAME(3) FreeBSD Library Functions Manual NAME X509_get_subject_name, X509_set_subject_name, X509_get_issuer_name, X509_set_issuer_name, X509_REQ_get_subject_name, X509_REQ_set_subject_name, X509_CRL_get_issuer, X509_CRL_set_issuer_name - get and set issuer or subject names SYNOPSIS #include <openssl/x509.h> X509_NAME * X509_get_subject_name(const X509 *x); int X509_set_subject_name(X509 *x, X509_NAME *name); X509_NAME * X509_get_issuer_name(const X509 *x); int X509_set_issuer_name(X509 *x, X509_NAME *name); X509_NAME * X509_REQ_get_subject_name(const X509_REQ *req); int X509_REQ_set_subject_name(X509_REQ *req, X509_NAME *name); X509_NAME * X509_CRL_get_issuer(const X509_CRL *crl); int X509_CRL_set_issuer_name(X509_CRL *x, X509_NAME *name); DESCRIPTION X509_get_subject_name() returns the subject name of certificate x. The returned value is an internal pointer which must not be freed. X509_set_subject_name() sets the issuer name of certificate x to name. The name parameter is copied internally and should be freed up when it is no longer needed. X509_get_issuer_name() and X509_set_issuer_name() are identical to X509_get_subject_name() and X509_set_subject_name() except that they get and set the issuer name of x. Similarly X509_REQ_get_subject_name(), X509_REQ_set_subject_name(), X509_CRL_get_issuer(), and X509_CRL_set_issuer_name() get or set the subject or issuer names of certificate requests of CRLs, respectively. RETURN VALUES X509_get_subject_name(), X509_get_issuer_name(), X509_REQ_get_subject_name(), and X509_CRL_get_issuer() return a pointer to an X509_NAME object. X509_set_subject_name(), X509_set_issuer_name(), X509_REQ_set_subject_name(), and X509_CRL_set_issuer_name() return 1 for success or 0 for failure. In some cases of failure, the reason can be determined with ERR_get_error(3).
