=head1 NAME
|
|
|
|
ASN1_generate_nconf, ASN1_generate_v3 - ASN1 generation functions
|
|
|
|
=head1 SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
#include <openssl/asn1.h>
|
|
|
|
ASN1_TYPE *ASN1_generate_nconf(char *str, CONF *nconf);
|
|
ASN1_TYPE *ASN1_generate_v3(char *str, X509V3_CTX *cnf);
|
|
|
|
=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
These functions generate the ASN1 encoding of a string
|
|
in an B<ASN1_TYPE> structure.
|
|
|
|
B<str> contains the string to encode B<nconf> or B<cnf> contains
|
|
the optional configuration information where additional strings
|
|
will be read from. B<nconf> will typically come from a config
|
|
file wherease B<cnf> is obtained from an B<X509V3_CTX> structure
|
|
which will typically be used by X509 v3 certificate extension
|
|
functions. B<cnf> or B<nconf> can be set to B<NULL> if no additional
|
|
configuration will be used.
|
|
|
|
=head1 GENERATION STRING FORMAT
|
|
|
|
The actual data encoded is determined by the string B<str> and
|
|
the configuration information. The general format of the string
|
|
is:
|
|
|
|
=over 2
|
|
|
|
=item B<[modifier,]type[:value]>
|
|
|
|
=back
|
|
|
|
That is zero or more comma separated modifiers followed by a type
|
|
followed by an optional colon and a value. The formats of B<type>,
|
|
B<value> and B<modifier> are explained below.
|
|
|
|
=head2 SUPPORTED TYPES
|
|
|
|
The supported types are listed below. Unless otherwise specified
|
|
only the B<ASCII> format is permissible.
|
|
|
|
=over 2
|
|
|
|
=item B<BOOLEAN>, B<BOOL>
|
|
|
|
This encodes a boolean type. The B<value> string is mandatory and
|
|
should be B<TRUE> or B<FALSE>. Additionally B<TRUE>, B<true>, B<Y>,
|
|
B<y>, B<YES>, B<yes>, B<FALSE>, B<false>, B<N>, B<n>, B<NO> and B<no>
|
|
are acceptable.
|
|
|
|
=item B<NULL>
|
|
|
|
Encode the B<NULL> type, the B<value> string must not be present.
|
|
|
|
=item B<INTEGER>, B<INT>
|
|
|
|
Encodes an ASN1 B<INTEGER> type. The B<value> string represents
|
|
the value of the integer, it can be preceeded by a minus sign and
|
|
is normally interpreted as a decimal value unless the prefix B<0x>
|
|
is included.
|
|
|
|
=item B<ENUMERATED>, B<ENUM>
|
|
|
|
Encodes the ASN1 B<ENUMERATED> type, it is otherwise identical to
|
|
B<INTEGER>.
|
|
|
|
=item B<OBJECT>, B<OID>
|
|
|
|
Encodes an ASN1 B<OBJECT IDENTIFIER>, the B<value> string can be
|
|
a short name, a long name or numerical format.
|
|
|
|
=item B<UTCTIME>, B<UTC>
|
|
|
|
Encodes an ASN1 B<UTCTime> structure, the value should be in
|
|
the format B<YYMMDDHHMMSSZ>.
|
|
|
|
=item B<GENERALIZEDTIME>, B<GENTIME>
|
|
|
|
Encodes an ASN1 B<GeneralizedTime> structure, the value should be in
|
|
the format B<YYYYMMDDHHMMSSZ>.
|
|
|
|
=item B<OCTETSTRING>, B<OCT>
|
|
|
|
Encodes an ASN1 B<OCTET STRING>. B<value> represents the contents
|
|
of this structure, the format strings B<ASCII> and B<HEX> can be
|
|
used to specify the format of B<value>.
|
|
|
|
=item B<BITSTRING>, B<BITSTR>
|
|
|
|
Encodes an ASN1 B<BIT STRING>. B<value> represents the contents
|
|
of this structure, the format strings B<ASCII>, B<HEX> and B<BITLIST>
|
|
can be used to specify the format of B<value>.
|
|
|
|
If the format is anything other than B<BITLIST> the number of unused
|
|
bits is set to zero.
|
|
|
|
=item B<UNIVERSALSTRING>, B<UNIV>, B<IA5>, B<IA5STRING>, B<UTF8>,
|
|
B<UTF8String>, B<BMP>, B<BMPSTRING>, B<VISIBLESTRING>,
|
|
B<VISIBLE>, B<PRINTABLESTRING>, B<PRINTABLE>, B<T61>,
|
|
B<T61STRING>, B<TELETEXSTRING>, B<GeneralString>, B<NUMERICSTRING>,
|
|
B<NUMERIC>
|
|
|
|
These encode the corresponding string types. B<value> represents the
|
|
contents of this structure. The format can be B<ASCII> or B<UTF8>.
|
|
|
|
=item B<SEQUENCE>, B<SEQ>, B<SET>
|
|
|
|
Formats the result as an ASN1 B<SEQUENCE> or B<SET> type. B<value>
|
|
should be a section name which will contain the contents. The
|
|
field names in the section are ignored and the values are in the
|
|
generated string format. If B<value> is absent then an empty SEQUENCE
|
|
will be encoded.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
=head2 MODIFIERS
|
|
|
|
Modifiers affect the following structure, they can be used to
|
|
add EXPLICIT or IMPLICIT tagging, add wrappers or to change
|
|
the string format of the final type and value. The supported
|
|
formats are documented below.
|
|
|
|
=over 2
|
|
|
|
=item B<EXPLICIT>, B<EXP>
|
|
|
|
Add an explicit tag to the following structure. This string
|
|
should be followed by a colon and the tag value to use as a
|
|
decimal value.
|
|
|
|
By following the number with B<U>, B<A>, B<P> or B<C> UNIVERSAL,
|
|
APPLICATION, PRIVATE or CONTEXT SPECIFIC tagging can be used,
|
|
the default is CONTEXT SPECIFIC.
|
|
|
|
=item B<IMPLICIT>, B<IMP>
|
|
|
|
This is the same as B<EXPLICIT> except IMPLICIT tagging is used
|
|
instead.
|
|
|
|
=item B<OCTWRAP>, B<SEQWRAP>, B<SETWRAP>, B<BITWRAP>
|
|
|
|
The following structure is surrounded by an OCTET STRING, a SEQUENCE,
|
|
a SET or a BIT STRING respectively. For a BIT STRING the number of unused
|
|
bits is set to zero.
|
|
|
|
=item B<FORMAT>
|
|
|
|
This specifies the format of the ultimate value. It should be followed
|
|
by a colon and one of the strings B<ASCII>, B<UTF8>, B<HEX> or B<BITLIST>.
|
|
|
|
If no format specifier is included then B<ASCII> is used. If B<UTF8> is
|
|
specified then the value string must be a valid B<UTF8> string. For B<HEX> the
|
|
output must be a set of hex digits. B<BITLIST> (which is only valid for a BIT
|
|
STRING) is a comma separated list of the indices of the set bits, all other
|
|
bits are zero.

=head1 EXAMPLES
|
|
|
|
A simple IA5String:
|
|
|
|
IA5STRING:Hello World
|
|
|
|
An IA5String explicitly tagged:
|
|
|
|
EXPLICIT:0,IA5STRING:Hello World
|
|
|
|
An IA5String explicitly tagged using APPLICATION tagging:
|
|
|
|
EXPLICIT:0A,IA5STRING:Hello World
|
|
|
|
A BITSTRING with bits 1 and 5 set and all others zero:
|
|
|
|
FORMAT:BITLIST,BITSTRING:1,5
|
|
|
|
A more complex example using a config file to produce a
|
|
SEQUENCE consiting of a BOOL an OID and a UTF8String:
|
|
|
|
asn1 = SEQUENCE:seq_section
|
|
|
|
[seq_section]
|
|
|
|
field1 = BOOLEAN:TRUE
|
|
field2 = OID:commonName
|
|
field3 = UTF8:Third field
|
|
|
|
This example produces an RSAPrivateKey structure, this is the
|
|
key contained in the file client.pem in all OpenSSL distributions
|
|
(note: the field names such as 'coeff' are ignored and are present just
|
|
for clarity):
