.SH DESCRIPTION
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
\&\fBASN1_item_d2i_ex()\fR decodes the contents of the data stored in \fI*in\fR of length
\&\fIlen\fR which must be a DER-encoded ASN.1 structure, using the ASN.1 template
\&\fIit\fR. It places the result in \fI*pval\fR unless \fIpval\fR is NULL. If \fI*pval\fR is
non-NULL on entry then the \fBASN1_VALUE\fR present there will be reused. Otherwise
a new \fBASN1_VALUE\fR will be allocated. If any algorithm fetches are required
during the process then they will use the \fBOSSL_LIB_CTX\fRprovided in the
\&\fIlibctx\fR parameter and the property query string in \fIpropq\fR. See
"ALGORITHM FETCHING" in \fBcrypto\fR\|(7) for more information about algorithm fetching.
On exit \fI*in\fR will be updated to point to the next byte in the buffer after the
decoded structure.
.PP
\&\fBASN1_item_d2i()\fR is the same as \fBASN1_item_d2i_ex()\fR except that the default
OSSL_LIB_CTX is used (i.e. NULL) and with a NULL property query string.
.PP
\&\fBASN1_item_d2i_bio_ex()\fR decodes the contents of its input BIO \fIin\fR,
which must be a DER-encoded ASN.1 structure, using the ASN.1 template \fIit\fR
and places the result in \fI*pval\fR unless \fIpval\fR is NULL.
If \fIin\fR is NULL it returns NULL, else a pointer to the parsed structure. If any
algorithm fetches are required during the process then they will use the
\&\fBOSSL_LIB_CTX\fR provided in the \fIlibctx\fR parameter and the property query
string in \fIpropq\fR. See "ALGORITHM FETCHING" in \fBcrypto\fR\|(7) for more information
about algorithm fetching.
.PP
\&\fBASN1_item_d2i_bio()\fR is the same as \fBASN1_item_d2i_bio_ex()\fR except that the
default \fBOSSL_LIB_CTX\fR is used (i.e. NULL) and with a NULL property query
string.
.PP
\&\fBASN1_item_d2i_fp_ex()\fR is the same as \fBASN1_item_d2i_bio_ex()\fR except that a FILE
pointer is provided instead of a BIO.
.PP
\&\fBASN1_item_d2i_fp()\fR is the same as \fBASN1_item_d2i_fp_ex()\fR except that the
default \fBOSSL_LIB_CTX\fR is used (i.e. NULL) and with a NULL property query
string.
.PP
\&\fBASN1_item_i2d_mem_bio()\fR encodes the given ASN.1 value \fIval\fR
using the ASN.1 template \fIit\fR and returns the result in a memory BIO.
.PP
\&\fBASN1_item_pack()\fR encodes the given ASN.1 value in \fIobj\fR using the
ASN.1 template \fIit\fR and returns an \fBASN1_STRING\fR object. If the passed in
\&\fI*oct\fR is not NULL then this is used to store the returned result, otherwise
a new \fBASN1_STRING\fR object is created. If \fIoct\fR is not NULL and \fI*oct\fR is NULL
then the returned return is also set into \fI*oct\fR. If there is an error the optional
passed in \fBASN1_STRING\fR will not be freed, but the previous value may be cleared when
ASN1_STRING_set0(*oct, NULL, 0) is called internally.
.PP
\&\fBASN1_item_unpack()\fR uses \fBASN1_item_d2i()\fR to decode the DER-encoded \fBASN1_STRING\fR
\&\fIoct\fR using the ASN.1 template \fIit\fR.
.PP
\&\fBASN1_item_unpack_ex()\fR is similar to \fBASN1_item_unpack()\fR, but uses \fBASN1_item_d2i_ex()\fR so
that the \fIlibctx\fR and \fIpropq\fR can be used when doing algorithm fetching.
.SH "RETURN VALUES"
