=head1 DESCRIPTION

These functions are primarily useful for applications to retrieve
supported objects from B<OSSL_STORE_INFO> objects and for scheme specific
loaders to create B<OSSL_STORE_INFO> holders.

=head2 Types

B<OSSL_STORE_INFO> is an opaque type that's just an intermediary holder for
the objects that have been retrieved by OSSL_STORE_load() and similar
functions.
Supported OpenSSL type object can be extracted using one of
STORE_INFO_get0_TYPE().
The life time of this extracted object is as long as the life time of
the B<OSSL_STORE_INFO> it was extracted from, so care should be taken not
to free the latter too early.
As an alternative, STORE_INFO_get1_TYPE() extracts a duplicate (or the
same object with its reference count increased), which can be used
after the containing B<OSSL_STORE_INFO> has been freed.
The object returned by STORE_INFO_get1_TYPE() must be freed separately
by the caller.
See L</SUPPORTED OBJECTS> for more information on the types that are
supported.

=head2 Functions

OSSL_STORE_INFO_get_type() takes a B<OSSL_STORE_INFO> and returns the STORE
type number for the object inside.
STORE_INFO_get_type_string() takes a STORE type number and returns a
short string describing it.

OSSL_STORE_INFO_get0_NAME(), OSSL_STORE_INFO_get0_NAME_description(),
OSSL_STORE_INFO_get0_PARAMS(), OSSL_STORE_INFO_get0_PKEY(),
OSSL_STORE_INFO_get0_CERT() and OSSL_STORE_INFO_get0_CRL() all take a
B<OSSL_STORE_INFO> and return the held object of the appropriate OpenSSL
type provided that's what's held.

OSSL_STORE_INFO_get1_NAME(), OSSL_STORE_INFO_get1_NAME_description(),
OSSL_STORE_INFO_get1_PARAMS(), OSSL_STORE_INFO_get1_PKEY(),
OSSL_STORE_INFO_get1_CERT() and OSSL_STORE_INFO_get1_CRL() all take a
B<OSSL_STORE_INFO> and return a duplicate of the held object of the
appropriate OpenSSL type provided that's what's held.

OSSL_STORE_INFO_free() frees a B<OSSL_STORE_INFO> and its contained type.

OSSL_STORE_INFO_new_NAME() , OSSL_STORE_INFO_new_PARAMS(),
OSSL_STORE_INFO_new_PKEY(), OSSL_STORE_INFO_new_CERT() and
OSSL_STORE_INFO_new_CRL() create a B<OSSL_STORE_INFO>
object to hold the given input object.
Additionally, for B<OSSL_STORE_INFO_NAME>` objects,
OSSL_STORE_INFO_set0_NAME_description() can be used to add an extra
description.
This description is meant to be human readable and should be used for
information printout.

=head1 SUPPORTED OBJECTS

Currently supported object types are:

=over 4

=item OSSL_STORE_INFO_NAME

A name is exactly that, a name.
It's like a name in a directory, but formatted as a complete URI.
For example, the path in URI C<file:/foo/bar/> could include a file
named C<cookie.pem>, and in that case, the returned B<OSSL_STORE_INFO_NAME>
object would have the URI C<file:/foo/bar/cookie.pem>, which can be
used by the application to get the objects in that file.
This can be applied to all schemes that can somehow support a listing
of object URIs.

For C<file:> URIs that are used without the explicit scheme, the
returned name will be the path of each object, so if C</foo/bar> was
given and that path has the file C<cookie.pem>, the name
C</foo/bar/cookie.pem> will be returned.

At the discretion of the loader that was used to get these names, an
extra description may be attached as well.

=item OSSL_STORE_INFO_PARAMS

Key parameters.

=item OSSL_STORE_INFO_PKEY

A private/public key of some sort.

=item OSSL_STORE_INFO_CERT

An X.509 certificate.

=item OSSL_STORE_INFO_CRL

A X.509 certificate revocation list.

=head1 RETURN VALUES

OSSL_STORE_INFO_get_type() returns the STORE type number of the given
B<OSSL_STORE_INFO>.
There is no error value.

OSSL_STORE_INFO_get0_NAME(), OSSL_STORE_INFO_get0_NAME_description(),
OSSL_STORE_INFO_get0_PARAMS(), OSSL_STORE_INFO_get0_PKEY(),
OSSL_STORE_INFO_get0_CERT() and OSSL_STORE_INFO_get0_CRL() all return
a pointer to the OpenSSL object on success, NULL otherwise.

OSSL_STORE_INFO_get0_NAME(), OSSL_STORE_INFO_get0_NAME_description(),
OSSL_STORE_INFO_get0_PARAMS(), OSSL_STORE_INFO_get0_PKEY(),
OSSL_STORE_INFO_get0_CERT() and OSSL_STORE_INFO_get0_CRL() all return
a pointer to a duplicate of the OpenSSL object on success, NULL otherwise.

OSSL_STORE_INFO_type_string() returns a string on success, or B<NULL> on
failure.

OSSL_STORE_INFO_new_NAME(), OSSL_STORE_INFO_new_PARAMS(),
OSSL_STORE_INFO_new_PKEY(), OSSL_STORE_INFO_new_CERT() and
OSSL_STORE_INFO_new_CRL() return a B<OSSL_STORE_INFO>
pointer on success, or B<NULL> on failure.

OSSL_STORE_INFO_set0_NAME_description() returns 1 on success, or 0 on
failure.
