 \*(C` and \*(C' are quotes in nroff, nothing in troff, for use with C<>.

'br\}

'br\}

 Escape single quotes in literal strings from groff's Unicode transform.

 If the F register is >0, we'll generate index entries on stderr for
 titles (.TH), headers (.SH), subsections (.SS), items (.Ip), and index
 entries marked with X<> in POD. Of course, you'll have to process the
 output yourself in some meaningful fashion.

 Avoid warning from groff about undefined register 'F'.

 NAME
ASN1_STRING_new, ASN1_STRING_type_new, ASN1_STRING_free -
ASN1_STRING allocation functions
 SYNOPSIS
 Header "SYNOPSIS" .Vb 1
 #include <openssl/asn1.h>
\&
 ASN1_STRING *ASN1_STRING_new(void);
 ASN1_STRING *ASN1_STRING_type_new(int type);
 void ASN1_STRING_free(ASN1_STRING *a);
.Ve
 DESCRIPTION
 Header "DESCRIPTION" \fBASN1_STRING_new() returns an allocated ASN1_STRING structure. Its type
is undefined.

\fBASN1_STRING_type_new() returns an allocated ASN1_STRING structure of
type type.

\fBASN1_STRING_free() frees up a.
If a is NULL nothing is done.
 NOTES
 Header "NOTES" Other string types call the ASN1_STRING functions. For example
\fBASN1_OCTET_STRING_new() calls ASN1_STRING_type_new(V_ASN1_OCTET_STRING).
 "RETURN VALUES"
 Header "RETURN VALUES" \fBASN1_STRING_new() and ASN1_STRING_type_new() return a valid
\fBASN1_STRING structure or NULL if an error occurred.

\fBASN1_STRING_free() does not return a value.
