=head1 NAME
SMIME_read_ASN1_ex, SMIME_read_ASN1
- parse S/MIME message
=head1 SYNOPSIS
#include <openssl/asn1.h>
ASN1_VALUE *SMIME_read_ASN1_ex(BIO *in, int flags, BIO **bcont,
const ASN1_ITEM *it, ASN1_VALUE **x,
OSSL_LIB_CTX *libctx, const char *propq);
ASN1_VALUE *SMIME_read_ASN1(BIO *in, BIO **bcont, const ASN1_ITEM *it);
=head1 DESCRIPTION
SMIME_read_ASN1_ex() parses a message in S/MIME format.
I<in> is a BIO to read the message from.
If the I<flags> argument contains B<CMS_BINARY> then the input is assumed to be
in binary format and is not translated to canonical form.
If in addition B<SMIME_ASCIICRLF> is set then the binary input is assumed
to be followed by B<CR> and B<LF> characters, else only by an B<LF> character.
I<x> can be used to optionally supply
a previously created I<it> ASN1_VALUE object (such as CMS_ContentInfo or PKCS7),
it can be set to NULL. Valid values that can be used by ASN.1 structure I<it>
are ASN1_ITEM_rptr(PKCS7) or ASN1_ITEM_rptr(CMS_ContentInfo). Any algorithm
fetches that occur during the operation will use the B<OSSL_LIB_CTX> supplied in
the I<libctx> parameter, and use the property query string I<propq> See
L<crypto(7)/ALGORITHM FETCHING> for further details about algorithm fetching.
If cleartext signing is used then the content is saved in a memory bio which is
written to I<*bcont>, otherwise I<*bcont> is set to NULL.
The parsed ASN1_VALUE structure is returned or NULL if an error occurred.
SMIME_read_ASN1() is similar to SMIME_read_ASN1_ex() but sets the value of I<x>
to NULL and the value of I<flags> to 0.
=head1 NOTES
The higher level functions L<SMIME_read_CMS_ex(3)> and
L<SMIME_read_PKCS7_ex(3)> should be used instead of SMIME_read_ASN1_ex().
To support future functionality if I<bcont> is not NULL I<*bcont> should be
initialized to NULL.
=head1 BUGS
The MIME parser used by SMIME_read_ASN1_ex() is somewhat primitive. While it will
handle most S/MIME messages more complex compound formats may not work.
The use of a memory BIO to hold the signed content limits the size of message
which can be processed due to memory restraints: a streaming single pass option
should be available.
=head1 RETURN VALUES
SMIME_read_ASN1_ex() and SMIME_read_ASN1() return a valid B<ASN1_VALUE>
structure or B<NULL> if an error occurred. The error can be obtained from
ERR_get_error(3).
