151 \& int ASN1_STRING_print_ex(BIO *out, ASN1_STRING *str, unsigned long flags);

153 \& int ASN1_STRING_print(BIO *out, ASN1_STRING *str);
156 .IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
157 These functions output an \fB\s-1ASN1_STRING\s0\fR structure. \fB\s-1ASN1_STRING\s0\fR is used to
158 represent all the \s-1ASN1\s0 string types.
160 \&\fIASN1_STRING_print_ex()\fR outputs \fBstr\fR to \fBout\fR, the format is determined by
161 the options \fBflags\fR. \fIASN1_STRING_print_ex_fp()\fR is identical except it outputs
164 \&\fIASN1_STRING_print()\fR prints \fBstr\fR to \fBout\fR but using a different format to
165 \&\fIASN1_STRING_print_ex()\fR. It replaces unprintable characters (other than \s-1CR\s0, \s-1LF\s0)
169 \&\fIASN1_STRING_print()\fR is a legacy function which should be avoided in new applications.
171 Although there are a large number of options frequently \fB\s-1ASN1_STRFLGS_RFC2253\s0\fR is
172 suitable, or on \s-1UTF8\s0 terminals \fB\s-1ASN1_STRFLGS_RFC2253\s0 & ~ASN1_STRFLGS_ESC_MSB\fR.
174 The complete set of supported options for \fBflags\fR is listed below.
176 Various characters can be escaped. If \fB\s-1ASN1_STRFLGS_ESC_2253\s0\fR is set the characters
177 determined by \s-1RFC2253\s0 are escaped. If \fB\s-1ASN1_STRFLGS_ESC_CTRL\s0\fR is set control
178 characters are escaped. If \fB\s-1ASN1_STRFLGS_ESC_MSB\s0\fR is set characters with the
179 \&\s-1MSB\s0 set are escaped: this option should \fBnot\fR be used if the terminal correctly
180 interprets \s-1UTF8\s0 sequences.
182 Escaping takes several forms.
184 If the character being escaped is a 16 bit character then the form \*(L"\eUXXXX\*(R" is used
185 using exactly four characters for the hex representation. If it is 32 bits then
186 \&\*(L"\eWXXXXXXXX\*(R" is used using eight characters of its hex representation. These forms
187 will only be used if \s-1UTF8\s0 conversion is not set (see below).
189 Printable characters are normally escaped using the backslash '\e' character. If
190 \&\fB\s-1ASN1_STRFLGS_ESC_QUOTE\s0\fR is set then the whole string is instead surrounded by
191 double quote characters: this is arguably more readable than the backslash
192 notation. Other characters use the \*(L"\eXX\*(R" using exactly two characters of the hex
195 If \fB\s-1ASN1_STRFLGS_UTF8_CONVERT\s0\fR is set then characters are converted to \s-1UTF8\s0
196 format first. If the terminal supports the display of \s-1UTF8\s0 sequences then this
197 option will correctly display multi byte characters.
199 If \fB\s-1ASN1_STRFLGS_IGNORE_TYPE\s0\fR is set then the string type is not interpreted at
200 all: everything is assumed to be one byte per character. This is primarily for
201 debugging purposes and can result in confusing output in multi character strings.
203 If \fB\s-1ASN1_STRFLGS_SHOW_TYPE\s0\fR is set then the string type itself is printed out
204 before its value (for example \*(L"\s-1BMPSTRING\s0\*(R"), this actually uses \fIASN1_tag2str()\fR.
206 The content of a string instead of being interpreted can be \*(L"dumped\*(R": this just
207 outputs the value of the string using the form #XXXX using hex format for each
210 If \fB\s-1ASN1_STRFLGS_DUMP_ALL\s0\fR is set then any type is dumped.
212 Normally non character string types (such as \s-1OCTET\s0 \s-1STRING\s0) are assumed to be
213 one byte per character, if \fB\s-1ASN1_STRFLGS_DUMP_UNKNOWN\s0\fR is set then they will
216 When a type is dumped normally just the content octets are printed, if
217 \&\fB\s-1ASN1_STRFLGS_DUMP_DER\s0\fR is set then the complete encoding is dumped
218 instead (including tag and length octets).
220 \&\fB\s-1ASN1_STRFLGS_RFC2253\s0\fR includes all the flags required by \s-1RFC2253\s0. It is
222 \s-1ASN1_STRFLGS_ESC_2253\s0 | \s-1ASN1_STRFLGS_ESC_CTRL\s0 | \s-1ASN1_STRFLGS_ESC_MSB\s0 |
223 \s-1ASN1_STRFLGS_UTF8_CONVERT\s0 | \s-1ASN1_STRFLGS_DUMP_UNKNOWN\s0 \s-1ASN1_STRFLGS_DUMP_DER\s0
