19=head1 DESCRIPTION
20
21=head2 Types
22
23B<ASN1_STRING_TABLE> is a table which holds string information
24(basically minimum size, maximum size, type and etc) for a NID object.
25
26=head2 Functions
27
28ASN1_STRING_TABLE_add() adds a new B<ASN1_STRING_TABLE> item into the
29local ASN1 string table based on the B<nid> along with other parameters.
30
31If the item is already in the table, fields of B<ASN1_STRING_TABLE> are
32updated (depending on the values of those parameters, e.g., B<minsize>
33and B<maxsize> >= 0, B<mask> and B<flags> != 0). If the B<nid> is standard,
34a copy of the standard B<ASN1_STRING_TABLE> is created and updated with
35other parameters.
36
37ASN1_STRING_TABLE_get() searches for an B<ASN1_STRING_TABLE> item based
38on B<nid>. It will search the local table first, then the standard one.
39
40ASN1_STRING_TABLE_cleanup() frees all B<ASN1_STRING_TABLE> items added
41by ASN1_STRING_TABLE_add().
42
43=head1 RETURN VALUES
44
45ASN1_STRING_TABLE_add() returns 1 on success, 0 if an error occurred.
46
47ASN1_STRING_TABLE_get() returns a valid B<ASN1_STRING_TABLE> structure
48or B<NULL> if nothing is found.
49
50ASN1_STRING_TABLE_cleanup() does not return a value.
