DESCRIPTION

61       X509v3_get_ext_count() retrieves the number of extensions in x.
62
63       X509v3_get_ext() retrieves extension loc from x. The index loc can take
64       any value from 0 to X509_get_ext_count(x) - 1. The returned extension
65       is an internal pointer which MUST NOT be freed by the application.
66
67       X509v3_get_ext_by_NID() and X509v3_get_ext_by_OBJ() look for an
68       extension with nid or obj from extension STACK x. The search starts
69       from the extension after lastpos or from the beginning if lastpos is
70       -1. If the extension is found, its index is returned, otherwise -1 is
71       returned.
72
73       X509v3_get_ext_by_critical() is similar to X509v3_get_ext_by_NID()
74       except it looks for an extension of criticality crit. A zero value for
75       crit looks for a non-critical extension. A nonzero value looks for a
76       critical extension.
77
78       X509v3_delete_ext() deletes the extension with index loc from x.  The
79       deleted extension is returned and must be freed by the caller.  If loc
80       is an invalid index value, NULL is returned.
81
82       X509v3_add_ext() adds extension ex to STACK *x at position loc. If loc
83       is -1, the new extension is added to the end. If *x is NULL, a new
84       STACK will be allocated. The passed extension ex is duplicated
85       internally so it must be freed after use.
86
87       X509_get_ext_count(), X509_get_ext(), X509_get_ext_by_NID(),
88       X509_get_ext_by_OBJ(), X509_get_ext_by_critical(), X509_delete_ext()
89       and X509_add_ext() operate on the extensions of certificate x. They are
90       otherwise identical to the X509v3 functions.
91
92       X509_CRL_get_ext_count(), X509_CRL_get_ext(),
93       X509_CRL_get_ext_by_NID(), X509_CRL_get_ext_by_OBJ(),
94       X509_CRL_get_ext_by_critical(), X509_CRL_delete_ext() and
95       X509_CRL_add_ext() operate on the extensions of CRL x. They are
96       otherwise identical to the X509v3 functions.
97
98       X509_REVOKED_get_ext_count(), X509_REVOKED_get_ext(),
99       X509_REVOKED_get_ext_by_NID(), X509_REVOKED_get_ext_by_OBJ(),
100       X509_REVOKED_get_ext_by_critical(), X509_REVOKED_delete_ext() and
101       X509_REVOKED_add_ext() operate on the extensions of CRL entry x.  They
102       are otherwise identical to the X509v3 functions.
103

NOTES

105       These functions are used to examine stacks of extensions directly.
106       Applications that want to parse or encode and add an extension should
107       use the extension encode and decode functions instead, such as
108       X509_add1_ext_i2d() and X509_get_ext_d2i().
109
110       For X509v3_get_ext_by_NID(), X509v3_get_ext_by_OBJ(),
111       X509v3_get_ext_by_critical() and its variants, a zero index return
112       value is not an error since extension STACK x indices start from zero.
113       These search functions start from the extension after the lastpos
114       parameter so it should initially be set to -1. If it is set to zero,
115       the initial extension will not be checked.
116
117       X509v3_delete_ext() and its variants are a bit counter-intuitive
118       because these functions do not free the extension they delete.  They
119       return an X509_EXTENSION object which must be explicitly freed using
120       X509_EXTENSION_free().
121

RETURN VALUES

123       X509v3_get_ext_count() returns the extension count or 0 for failure.
124
125       X509v3_get_ext(), X509v3_delete_ext() and X509_delete_ext() return an
126       X509_EXTENSION structure or NULL if an error occurs.
127
128       X509v3_get_ext_by_OBJ() and X509v3_get_ext_by_critical() return the
129       extension index or -1 if an error occurs.
130
131       X509v3_get_ext_by_NID() returns the extension index or negative values
132       if an error occurs.
133
134       X509v3_add_ext() returns a STACK of extensions or NULL on error.
135
136       X509_add_ext() returns 1 on success and 0 on error.
