  80. .SH DESCRIPTION
  81. .IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
  82. \&\fBSMIME_write_ASN1_ex()\fR adds the appropriate MIME headers to an object
  83. structure to produce an S/MIME message.
  84. .PP
  85. \&\fIout\fR is the BIO to write the data to. \fIvalue\fR is the appropriate ASN1_VALUE
  86. structure (either CMS_ContentInfo or PKCS7). If streaming is enabled then the
  87. content must be supplied via \fIdata\fR.
  88. \&\fIflags\fR is an optional set of flags. \fIctype_nid\fR is the NID of the content
  89. type, \fIecont_nid\fR is the NID of the embedded content type and \fImdalgs\fR is a
  90. list of signed data digestAlgorithms. Valid values that can be used by the
  91. ASN.1 structure \fIit\fR are ASN1_ITEM_rptr(PKCS7) or ASN1_ITEM_rptr(CMS_ContentInfo).
  92. The library context \fIlibctx\fR and the property query \fIpropq\fR are used when
  93. retrieving algorithms from providers.
  94. .SH NOTES
  95. .IX Header "NOTES"
  96. The higher level functions \fBSMIME_write_CMS\fR\|(3) and
  97. \&\fBSMIME_write_PKCS7\fR\|(3) should be used instead of \fBSMIME_write_ASN1()\fR.
  98. .PP
  99. The following flags can be passed in the \fBflags\fR parameter.
  100. .PP
  101. If \fBCMS_DETACHED\fR is set then cleartext signing will be used, this option only
  102. makes sense for SignedData where \fBCMS_DETACHED\fR is also set when the \fBsign()\fR
  103. method is called.
  104. .PP
  105. If the \fBCMS_TEXT\fR flag is set MIME headers for type \fBtext/plain\fR are added to
  106. the content, this only makes sense if \fBCMS_DETACHED\fR is also set.
  107. .PP
  108. If the \fBCMS_STREAM\fR flag is set streaming is performed. This flag should only
  109. be set if \fBCMS_STREAM\fR was also set in the previous call to a CMS_ContentInfo
  110. or PKCS7 creation function.
  111. .PP
  112. If cleartext signing is being used and \fBCMS_STREAM\fR not set then the data must
  113. be read twice: once to compute the signature in sign method and once to output
  114. the S/MIME message.
  115. .PP
  116. If streaming is performed the content is output in BER format using indefinite
  117. length constructed encoding except in the case of signed data with detached
  118. content where the content is absent and DER format is used.
  119. .SH "RETURN VALUES"
  120. .IX Header "RETURN VALUES"
  121. \&\fBSMIME_write_ASN1_ex()\fR and \fBSMIME_write_ASN1()\fR return 1 for success or
  122. 0 for failure.
