The +B pointer is duplicated internally so B should be freed up after use. + +X509_EXTENSION_set_critical() sets the criticality of B to B. If +B is zero the extension in non-critical otherwise it is critical. + +X509_EXTENSION_set_data() sets the data in extension B to B. The +B pointer is duplicated internally. + +X509_EXTENSION_create_by_NID() creates an extension of type B, +criticality B using data B. The created extension is returned and +written to B<*ex> reusing or allocating a new extension if necessary so B<*ex> +should either be B or a valid B structure it must +B be an uninitialised pointer. + +X509_EXTENSION_create_by_OBJ() is identical to X509_EXTENSION_create_by_NID() +except it creates and extension using B instead of a NID. + +X509_EXTENSION_get_object() returns the extension type of B as an +B pointer. The returned pointer is an internal value which must +not be freed up. + +X509_EXTENSION_get_critical() returns the criticality of extension B it +returns B<1> for critical and B<0> for non-critical. + +X509_EXTENSION_get_data() returns the data of extension B. The returned +pointer is an internal value which must not be freed up. + +=head1 NOTES + +These functions manipulate the contents of an extension directly. Most +applications will want to parse or encode and add an extension: they should +use the extension encode and decode functions instead such as +X509_add1_ext_i2d() and X509_get_ext_d2i(). + +The B associated with an extension is the extension encoding in an +B structure. + +=head1 RETURN VALUES + +X509_EXTENSION_set_object() X509_EXTENSION_set_critical() and +X509_EXTENSION_set_data() return B<1> for success and B<0> for failure. + +X509_EXTENSION_create_by_NID() and X509_EXTENSION_create_by_OBJ() return +an B pointer or B if an error occurs. + +X509_EXTENSION_get_object() returns an B pointer. + +X509_EXTENSION_get_critical() returns B<0> for non-critical and B<1> for +critical. + +X509_EXTENSION_get_data() returns an B pointer. + +=head1 SEE ALSO + +L -- 2.25.1
