=head1 NAME

ASN1_STRING_TABLE, ASN1_STRING_TABLE_add, ASN1_STRING_TABLE_get,
ASN1_STRING_TABLE_cleanup - ASN1_STRING_TABLE manipulation functions

=head1 SYNOPSIS

 #include <openssl/asn1.h>

 typedef struct asn1_string_table_st ASN1_STRING_TABLE;

 int ASN1_STRING_TABLE_add(int nid, long minsize, long maxsize,
                           unsigned long mask, unsigned long flags);
 ASN1_STRING_TABLE * ASN1_STRING_TABLE_get(int nid);
 void ASN1_STRING_TABLE_cleanup(void);

=head1 DESCRIPTION

=head2 Types

B<ASN1_STRING_TABLE> is a table which holds string information
(basically minimum size, maximum size, type and etc) for a NID object.

=head2 Functions

ASN1_STRING_TABLE_add() adds a new B<ASN1_STRING_TABLE> item into the
local ASN1 string table based on the B<nid> along with other parameters.

If the item is already in the table, fields of B<ASN1_STRING_TABLE> are
updated (depending on the values of those parameters, e.g., B<minsize>
and B<maxsize> >= 0, B<mask> and B<flags> != 0). If the B<nid> is standard,
a copy of the standard B<ASN1_STRING_TABLE> is created and updated with
other parameters.

ASN1_STRING_TABLE_get() searches for an B<ASN1_STRING_TABLE> item based
on B<nid>. It will search the local table first, then the standard one.

ASN1_STRING_TABLE_cleanup() frees all B<ASN1_STRING_TABLE> items added
by ASN1_STRING_TABLE_add().

=head1 RETURN VALUES

ASN1_STRING_TABLE_add() returns 1 on success, 0 if an error occurred.

ASN1_STRING_TABLE_get() returns a valid B<ASN1_STRING_TABLE> structure
or B<NULL> if nothing is found.

ASN1_STRING_TABLE_cleanup() does not return a value.
