.SH NAME
ASN1_OBJECT_new, ASN1_OBJECT_free \- object allocation functions
.SH SYNOPSIS
.IX Header "SYNOPSIS"
.Vb 1
\& #include <openssl/asn1.h>
\&
\& ASN1_OBJECT *ASN1_OBJECT_new(void);
\& void ASN1_OBJECT_free(ASN1_OBJECT *a);
.Ve
.SH DESCRIPTION
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
The \fBASN1_OBJECT\fR allocation routines, allocate and free an
\&\fBASN1_OBJECT\fR structure, which represents an ASN1 OBJECT IDENTIFIER.
.PP
\&\fBASN1_OBJECT_new()\fR allocates and initializes an \fBASN1_OBJECT\fR structure.
.PP
\&\fBASN1_OBJECT_free()\fR frees up the \fBASN1_OBJECT\fR structure \fIa\fR.
If \fIa\fR is NULL, nothing is done.
.SH NOTES
.IX Header "NOTES"
Although \fBASN1_OBJECT_new()\fR allocates a new \fBASN1_OBJECT\fR structure it
is almost never used in applications. The ASN1 object utility functions
such as \fBOBJ_nid2obj()\fR are used instead.
.SH "RETURN VALUES"
.IX Header "RETURN VALUES"
If the allocation fails, \fBASN1_OBJECT_new()\fR returns NULL and sets an error
code that can be obtained by \fBERR_get_error\fR\|(3).
Otherwise it returns a pointer to the newly allocated structure.
.PP
\&\fBASN1_OBJECT_free()\fR returns no value.
.SH "SEE ALSO"
.IX Header "SEE ALSO"
