SYNOPSIS

11        #include <openssl/ct.h>
12
13        CTLOG *CTLOG_new(EVP_PKEY *public_key, const char *name);
14        int CTLOG_new_from_base64(CTLOG ** ct_log,
15                                  const char *pkey_base64, const char *name);
16        void CTLOG_free(CTLOG *log);
17        const char *CTLOG_get0_name(const CTLOG *log);
18        void CTLOG_get0_log_id(const CTLOG *log, const uint8_t **log_id,
19                               size_t *log_id_len);
20        EVP_PKEY *CTLOG_get0_public_key(const CTLOG *log);

DESCRIPTION

23       CTLOG_new() returns a new CTLOG that represents the Certificate
24       Transparency (CT) log with the given public key. A name must also be
25       provided that can be used to help users identify this log. Ownership of
26       the public key is transferred.
27
28       CTLOG_new_from_base64() also creates a new CTLOG, but takes the public
29       key in base64-encoded DER form and sets the ct_log pointer to point to
30       the new CTLOG.  The base64 will be decoded and the public key parsed.
31
32       Regardless of whether CTLOG_new() or CTLOG_new_from_base64() is used,
33       it is the caller's responsibility to pass the CTLOG to CTLOG_free()
34       once it is no longer needed. This will delete it and, if created by
35       CTLOG_new(), the EVP_PKEY that was passed to it.
36
37       CTLOG_get0_name() returns the name of the log, as provided when the
38       CTLOG was created. Ownership of the string remains with the CTLOG.
39
40       CTLOG_get0_log_id() sets *log_id to point to a string containing that
41       log's LogID (see RFC 6962). It sets *log_id_len to the length of that
42       LogID. For a v1 CT log, the LogID will be a SHA-256 hash (i.e. 32 bytes
43       long). Ownership of the string remains with the CTLOG.
44
45       CTLOG_get0_public_key() returns the public key of the CT log. Ownership
46       of the EVP_PKEY remains with the CTLOG.
47

RETURN VALUES

49       CTLOG_new() will return NULL if an error occurs.
50
51       CTLOG_new_from_base64() will return 1 on success, 0 otherwise.
