ASN1_INTEGER_NEW(3ossl)

💖 ASN1_INTEGER_NEW 💖

okay bestie, welcome to ASN1_INTEGER_NEW(3ossl) — that's the OpenSSL manual page, and yes, it's exactly as iconic as it sounds. we're talking the allocation functions for ASN1_INTEGER. no cap.

---

✨ NAME ✨

ASN1_INTEGER_new, ASN1_INTEGER_free — the ASN1_INTEGER allocation functions. that's the whole vibe: one to make it, one to yeet it. 🎀

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <openssl/asn1.h>

ASN1_INTEGER *ASN1_INTEGER_new(void);
void ASN1_INTEGER_free(ASN1_INTEGER *a);

look at that. two little lines. so clean. so powerful. 💅

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so like, here's the tea:

• ASN1_INTEGER_new() — returns an allocated ASN1_INTEGER structure. it's giving birth of an integer object, main character energy fr fr. ✨
• ASN1_INTEGER_free() — frees up a single ASN1_INTEGER object. and here's the cute part: if the argument is NULL, nothing is done. no crash, no drama, no screaming into the void. it just… doesn't. king behavior honestly. 🫶

and for the lore: ASN1_INTEGER is the structure representing the ASN.1 INTEGER type. iykyk. 👑

---

🌈 RETURN VALUES 🌈

• ASN1_INTEGER_new() — returns a valid ASN1_INTEGER structure, or NULL if an error occurred. (so like, always check, bestie. always. 🙈)
• ASN1_INTEGER_free() — does not return a value. it just does its job and leaves. no notes. 💀

---

⭐ SEE ALSO ⭐

• ERR_get_error(3) — for when things go sideways and you need to know why. the receipts, basically. 🧚
