.SH DESCRIPTION
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
\&\fBX509_NAME_hash_ex()\fR returns a hash value of name \fIx\fR or 0 on failure,
using any given library context \fIlibctx\fR and property query \fIpropq\fR.
The \fIok\fR result argument may be NULL
or else is used to return 1 for success and 0 for failure.
Failure may happen on malloc error or if no SHA1 implementation is available.
.PP
\&\fBX509_NAME_hash()\fR returns a hash value of name \fIx\fR or 0 on failure,
using the default library context and default property query.
.PP
\&\fBX509_get_subject_name()\fR returns the subject name of certificate \fIx\fR. The
returned value is an internal pointer which \fBMUST NOT\fR be freed.
.PP
\&\fBX509_set_subject_name()\fR sets the issuer name of certificate \fIx\fR to
\&\fIname\fR. The \fIname\fR parameter is copied internally and should be freed
up when it is no longer needed.
.PP
\&\fBX509_subject_name_hash()\fR returns a hash value of the subject name of
certificate \fIx\fR.
.PP
\&\fBX509_get_issuer_name()\fR, \fBX509_set_issuer_name()\fR, and \fBX509_issuer_name_hash()\fR
are identical to
\&\fBX509_get_subject_name()\fR, \fBX509_set_subject_name()\fR, and \fBX509_subject_name_hash()\fR
except they relate to the issuer name of \fIx\fR.
.PP
Similarly \fBX509_REQ_get_subject_name()\fR, \fBX509_REQ_set_subject_name()\fR,
\&\fBX509_ACERT_get0_issuerName()\fR, \fBX509_ACERT_set1_issuerName()\fR,
\&\fBX509_CRL_get_issuer()\fR and \fBX509_CRL_set_issuer_name()\fR get or set the subject
or issuer names of certificate requests of CRLs respectively.
.PP
Since attribute certificates do not have a subject name, only the issuer name
can be set.  For details on setting X509_ACERT holder identities, see
\&\fBX509_ACERT_set0_holder_entityName\fR\|(3).
.SH "RETURN VALUES"
.IX Header "RETURN VALUES"
\&\fBX509_get_subject_name()\fR, \fBX509_get_issuer_name()\fR, \fBX509_REQ_get_subject_name()\fR
\&\fBX509_ACERT_get0_issuerName()\fR and \fBX509_CRL_get_issuer()\fR return
an \fBX509_NAME\fR pointer.
.PP
\&\fBX509_NAME_hash_ex()\fR, \fBX509_NAME_hash()\fR,
\&\fBX509_subject_name_hash()\fR and \fBX509_issuer_name_hash()\fR
return the first four bytes of the SHA1 hash value,
converted to \fBunsigned long\fR in little endian order,
or 0 on failure.
.PP
\&\fBX509_set_subject_name()\fR, \fBX509_set_issuer_name()\fR, \fBX509_REQ_set_subject_name()\fR,
\&\fBX509_ACERT_get0_issuerName()\fR and \fBX509_CRL_set_issuer_name()\fR return 1 for
success and 0 for failure.
.SH BUGS
.IX Header "BUGS"
In case \fBX509_NAME_hash()\fR, \fBX509_subject_name_hash()\fR, or \fBX509_issuer_name_hash()\fR
returns 0 it remains unclear if this is the real hash value or due to failure.
Better use \fBX509_NAME_hash_ex()\fR instead.
