DESCRIPTION
These functions decode and encode X.509 certificate policies. For details about the semantics, examples, caveats, and bugs, see ASN1_item_d2i(3).
d2i_POLICYINFO() and i2d_POLICYINFO() decode and encode an ASN.1 PolicyInformation structure defined in RFC 5280 section 4.2.1.4.
d2i_CERTIFICATEPOLICIES() and i2d_CERTIFICATEPOLICIES() decode and encode an ASN.1 CertificatePolicies structure defined in RFC 5280 section 4.2.1.4.
d2i_POLICYQUALINFO() and i2d_POLICYQUALINFO() decode and encode an ASN.1 PolicyQualifierInfo structure defined in RFC 5280 section 4.2.1.4.
d2i_USERNOTICE() and i2d_USERNOTICE() decode and encode an ASN.1 UserNotice structure defined in RFC 5280 section 4.2.1.4.
d2i_NOTICEREF() and i2d_NOTICEREF() decode and encode an ASN.1 NoticeReference structure defined in RFC 5280 section 4.2.1.4.
RETURN VALUES
d2i_POLICYINFO(), d2i_CERTIFICATEPOLICIES(), d2i_POLICYQUALINFO(), d2i_USERNOTICE(), and d2i_NOTICEREF() return a POLICYINFO, CERTIFICATEPOLICIES, POLICYQUALINFO, USERNOTICE, or NOTICEREF object, respectively, or NULL if an error occurs.
i2d_POLICYINFO(), i2d_CERTIFICATEPOLICIES(), i2d_POLICYQUALINFO(), i2d_USERNOTICE(), and i2d_NOTICEREF() return the number of bytes successfully encoded or a negative value if an error occurs.
