=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The ASN1_OBJECT allocation routines, allocate and free an
|
|
|
|
|
ASN1_OBJECT structure, which represents an ASN1 OBJECT IDENTIFIER.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
ASN1_OBJECT_new() allocates and initializes a ASN1_OBJECT structure.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
ASN1_OBJECT_free() frees up the B<ASN1_OBJECT> structure B<a>.

|
=head1 NOTES
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Although ASN1_OBJECT_new() allocates a new ASN1_OBJECT structure it
|
|
|
|
|
is almost never used in applications. The ASN1 object utility functions
|
|
|
|
|
such as OBJ_nid2obj() are used instead.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
=head1 RETURN VALUES
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If the allocation fails, ASN1_OBJECT_new() returns B<NULL> and sets an error
|
|
|
|
|
code that can be obtained by L<ERR_get_error(3)|ERR_get_error(3)>.
|
|
|
|
|
Otherwise it returns a pointer to the newly allocated structure.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
ASN1_OBJECT_free() returns no value.
