<h1 id="DESCRIPTION">DESCRIPTION</h1>

<p>The <b>X509_LOOKUP_METHOD</b> type is a structure used for the implementation of new X509_LOOKUP types. It provides a set of functions used by OpenSSL for the implementation of various X509 and X509_CRL lookup capabilities. One instance of an X509_LOOKUP_METHOD can be associated to many instantiations of an <b>X509_LOOKUP</b> structure.</p>

<p>X509_LOOKUP_meth_new() creates a new <b>X509_LOOKUP_METHOD</b> structure. It should be given a human-readable string containing a brief description of the lookup method.</p>

<p>X509_LOOKUP_meth_free() destroys a <b>X509_LOOKUP_METHOD</b> structure. If the argument is NULL, nothing is done.</p>

<p>X509_LOOKUP_get_new_item() and X509_LOOKUP_set_new_item() get and set the function that is called when an <b>X509_LOOKUP</b> object is created with X509_LOOKUP_new(). If an X509_LOOKUP_METHOD requires any per-X509_LOOKUP specific data, the supplied new_item function should allocate this data and invoke <a href="../man3/X509_LOOKUP_set_method_data.html">X509_LOOKUP_set_method_data(3)</a>.</p>

<p>X509_LOOKUP_get_free() and X509_LOOKUP_set_free() get and set the function that is used to free any method data that was allocated and set from within new_item function.</p>

<p>X509_LOOKUP_meth_get_init() and X509_LOOKUP_meth_set_init() get and set the function that is used to initialize the method data that was set with <a href="../man3/X509_LOOKUP_set_method_data.html">X509_LOOKUP_set_method_data(3)</a> as part of the new_item routine.</p>

<p>X509_LOOKUP_meth_get_shutdown() and X509_LOOKUP_meth_set_shutdown() get and set the function that is used to shut down the method data whose state was previously initialized in the init function.</p>

<p>X509_LOOKUP_meth_get_ctrl() and X509_LOOKUP_meth_set_ctrl() get and set a function to be used to handle arbitrary control commands issued by X509_LOOKUP_ctrl(). The control function is given the X509_LOOKUP <b>ctx</b>, along with the arguments passed by X509_LOOKUP_ctrl. <b>cmd</b> is an arbitrary integer that defines some operation. <b>argc</b> is a pointer to an array of characters. <b>argl</b> is an integer. <b>ret</b>, if set, points to a location where any return data should be written to. How <b>argc</b> and <b>argl</b> are used depends entirely on the control function.</p>

<p>X509_LOOKUP_set_get_by_subject(), X509_LOOKUP_set_get_by_issuer_serial(), X509_LOOKUP_set_get_by_fingerprint(), X509_LOOKUP_set_get_by_alias() set the functions used to retrieve an X509 or X509_CRL object by the object&#39;s subject, issuer, fingerprint, and alias respectively. These functions are given the X509_LOOKUP context, the type of the X509_OBJECT being requested, parameters related to the lookup, and an X509_OBJECT that will receive the requested object.</p>

<p>Implementations must add objects they find to the <b>X509_STORE</b> object using X509_STORE_add_cert() or X509_STORE_add_crl(). This increments its reference count. However, the <a href="../man3/X509_STORE_CTX_get_by_subject.html">X509_STORE_CTX_get_by_subject(3)</a> function also increases the reference count which leads to one too many references being held. Therefore, applications should additionally call X509_free() or X509_CRL_free() to decrement the reference count again.</p>

<p>Implementations should also use either X509_OBJECT_set1_X509() or X509_OBJECT_set1_X509_CRL() to set the result. Note that this also increments the result&#39;s reference count.</p>

<p>Any method data that was created as a result of the new_item function set by X509_LOOKUP_meth_set_new_item() can be accessed with <a href="../man3/X509_LOOKUP_get_method_data.html">X509_LOOKUP_get_method_data(3)</a>. The <b>X509_STORE</b> object that owns the X509_LOOKUP may be accessed with <a href="../man3/X509_LOOKUP_get_store.html">X509_LOOKUP_get_store(3)</a>. Successful lookups should return 1, and unsuccessful lookups should return 0.</p>

<p>X509_LOOKUP_get_get_by_subject(), X509_LOOKUP_get_get_by_issuer_serial(), X509_LOOKUP_get_get_by_fingerprint(), X509_LOOKUP_get_get_by_alias() retrieve the function set by the corresponding setter.</p>

<h1 id="RETURN-VALUES">RETURN VALUES</h1>

<p>The <b>X509_LOOKUP_meth_set</b> functions return 1 on success or 0 on error.</p>

<p>The <b>X509_LOOKUP_meth_get</b> functions return the corresponding function pointers.</p>
