<h1><a name="description">DESCRIPTION</a></h1>
<p>The <strong>X509_LOOKUP</strong> structure holds the information needed to look up
certificates and CRLs according to an associated <em>X509_LOOKUP_METHOD(3)</em>.
Multiple <strong>X509_LOOKUP</strong> instances can be added to an <em>X509_STORE(3)</em>
to enable lookup in that store.</p>
<p>X509_LOOKUP_new() creates a new <strong>X509_LOOKUP</strong> using the given lookup
<em>method</em>.
It can also be created by calling <em>X509_STORE_add_lookup(3)</em>, which
will associate a <strong>X509_STORE</strong> with the lookup mechanism.</p>
<p>X509_LOOKUP_init() initializes the internal state and resources as
needed by the given <strong>X509_LOOKUP</strong> to do its work.</p>
<p>X509_LOOKUP_shutdown() tears down the internal state and resources of
the given <strong>X509_LOOKUP</strong>.</p>
<p>X509_LOOKUP_free() destructs the given <strong>X509_LOOKUP</strong>.</p>
<p>X509_LOOKUP_set_method_data() and X509_LOOKUP_get_method_data()
associates and retrieves a pointer to application data to and from the
given <strong>X509_LOOKUP</strong>, respectively.</p>
<p>X509_LOOKUP_ctrl() is used to set or get additional data to or from a
<strong>X509_LOOKUP</strong> structure or its associated <em>X509_LOOKUP_METHOD(3)</em>.
The arguments of the control command are passed via <em>argc</em> and <em>argl</em>,
its return value via <em>*ret</em>.
The meaning of the arguments depends on the <em>cmd</em> number of the
control command. In general, this function is not called directly, but
wrapped by a macro call, see below.
The control <em>cmd</em>s known to OpenSSL are discussed in more depth
in <a href="#control_commands">Control Commands</a>.</p>
<p>X509_LOOKUP_load_file() passes a filename to be loaded immediately
into the associated <strong>X509_STORE</strong>.
<em>type</em> indicates what type of object is expected.
This can only be used with a lookup using the implementation
<em>X509_LOOKUP_file(3)</em>.</p>
<p>X509_LOOKUP_add_dir() passes a directory specification from which
certificates and CRLs are loaded on demand into the associated
<strong>X509_STORE</strong>.
<em>type</em> indicates what type of object is expected.
This can only be used with a lookup using the implementation
<em>X509_LOOKUP_hash_dir(3)</em>.</p>
<p>X509_LOOKUP_add_store() passes a URI for a directory-like structure
from which containers with certificates and CRLs are loaded on demand
into the associated <strong>X509_STORE</strong>.
X509_LOOKUP_load_store() passes a URI for a single container from
which certificates and CRLs are immediately loaded into the associated
<strong>X509_STORE</strong>.
These functions can only be used with a lookup using the
implementation <em>X509_LOOKUP_store(3)</em>.</p>
<p>X509_LOOKUP_load_file(), X509_LOOKUP_add_dir(),
X509_LOOKUP_add_store(), and X509_LOOKUP_load_store() are implemented
as macros that use X509_LOOKUP_ctrl().</p>
<p>X509_LOOKUP_by_subject(), X509_LOOKUP_by_issuer_serial(),
X509_LOOKUP_by_fingerprint(), and X509_LOOKUP_by_alias() look up
certificates and CRLs in the <em>X509_STORE(3)</em> associated with the
<strong>X509_LOOKUP</strong> using different criteria, where the looked up object is
stored in <em>ret</em>.
Some of the underlying <strong>X509_LOOKUP_METHOD</strong>s will also cache objects
matching the criteria in the associated <strong>X509_STORE</strong>, which makes it
possible to handle cases where the criteria have more than one hit.</p>
<p>
</p>
<h2><a name="control_commands">Control Commands</a></h2>
<p>The <strong>X509_LOOKUP_METHOD</strong>s built into OpenSSL recognise the following
X509_LOOKUP_ctrl() <em>cmd</em>s:</p>
<dl>
<dt><strong><a name="x509_l_file_load" class="item"><strong>X509_L_FILE_LOAD</strong></a></strong></dt>
<dd>
<p>This is the command that X509_LOOKUP_load_file() uses.
The filename is passed in <em>argc</em>, and the type in <em>argl</em>.</p>
</dd>
<dt><strong><a name="x509_l_add_dir" class="item"><strong>X509_L_ADD_DIR</strong></a></strong></dt>
<dd>
<p>This is the command that X509_LOOKUP_add_dir() uses.
The directory specification is passed in <em>argc</em>, and the type in
<em>argl</em>.</p>
</dd>
<dt><strong><a name="x509_l_add_store" class="item"><strong>X509_L_ADD_STORE</strong></a></strong></dt>
<dd>
<p>This is the command that X509_LOOKUP_add_store() uses.
The URI is passed in <em>argc</em>.</p>
</dd>
<dt><strong><a name="x509_l_load_store" class="item"><strong>X509_L_LOAD_STORE</strong></a></strong></dt>
<dd>
<p>This is the command that X509_LOOKUP_load_store() uses.
The URI is passed in <em>argc</em>.</p>
</dd>

<h1><a name="return_values">RETURN VALUES</a></h1>
<p>X509_LOOKUP_new() returns a <strong>X509_LOOKUP</strong> pointer when successful,
or NULL on error.</p>
<p>X509_LOOKUP_init() and X509_LOOKUP_shutdown() return 1 on success, or
0 on error.</p>
<p>X509_LOOKUP_ctrl() returns -1 if the <strong>X509_LOOKUP</strong> doesn't have an
associated <strong>X509_LOOKUP_METHOD</strong>, or 1 if the
doesn't have a control function.
Otherwise, it returns what the control function in the
<strong>X509_LOOKUP_METHOD</strong> returns, which is usually 1 on success and 0 in
error.</p>
<p>X509_LOOKUP_get_store() returns a <strong>X509_STORE</strong> pointer if there is
one, otherwise NULL.</p>
<p>X509_LOOKUP_by_subject(), X509_LOOKUP_by_issuer_serial(),
X509_LOOKUP_by_fingerprint(), and X509_LOOKUP_by_alias() all return 0
if there is no <strong>X509_LOOKUP_METHOD</strong> or that method doesn't implement
the corresponding function.
Otherwise, it returns what the corresponding function in the
<strong>X509_LOOKUP_METHOD</strong> returns, which is usually 1 on success and 0 in
error.</p>
