BN_bn2bin() converts the absolute value of
a into big-endian form
and stores it at
to.
to must point to BN_num_bytes(
a)
bytes of memory.
BN_bn2binpad() also converts the absolute value of
a into
big-endian form and stores it at
to.
tolen indicates the length
of the output buffer
to. The result is padded with zeroes if necessary.
If
tolen is less than BN_num_bytes(
a) an error is returned.
BN_bin2bn() converts the positive integer in big-endian form of length
len at
s into a
BIGNUM and places it in
ret. If
ret is NULL, a new
BIGNUM is created.
BN_bn2lebinpad() and
BN_lebin2bn() are identical to
BN_bn2binpad() and
BN_bin2bn() except the buffer is in
little-endian format.
BN_bn2hex() and
BN_bn2dec() return printable strings containing
the hexadecimal and decimal encoding of
a respectively. For negative
numbers, the string is prefaced with a leading '-'. The string must be freed
later using
OPENSSL_free().
BN_hex2bn() takes as many characters as possible from the string
str, including the leading character '-' which means negative, to form
a valid hexadecimal number representation and converts them to a
BIGNUM
and stores it in **
a. If *
a is NULL, a new
BIGNUM is
created. If
a is NULL, it only computes the length of valid
representation. A "negative zero" is converted to zero.
BN_dec2bn() is the same using the decimal system.
BN_print() and
BN_print_fp() write the hexadecimal encoding of
a, with a leading '-' for negative numbers, to the
BIO or
FILE fp.
BN_bn2mpi() and
BN_mpi2bn() convert
BIGNUMs from and to a
format that consists of the number's length in bytes represented as a 4-byte
big-endian number, and the number itself in big-endian format, where the most
significant bit signals a negative number (the representation of numbers with
the MSB set is prefixed with null byte).
BN_bn2mpi() stores the representation of
a at
to, where
to must be large enough to hold the result. The size can be determined
by calling BN_bn2mpi(
a, NULL).
BN_mpi2bn() converts the
len bytes long representation at
s
to a
BIGNUM and stores it at
ret, or in a newly allocated
BIGNUM if
ret is NULL.
BN_bn2bin() returns the length of the big-endian number placed at
to.
BN_bin2bn() returns the
BIGNUM, NULL on error.
BN_bn2binpad() returns the number of bytes written or -1 if the supplied
buffer is too small.
BN_bn2hex() and
BN_bn2dec() return a null-terminated string, or
NULL on error.
BN_hex2bn() and
BN_dec2bn() return the number of
characters used in parsing, or 0 on error, in which case no new
BIGNUM
will be created.
BN_print_fp() and
BN_print() return 1 on success, 0 on write
errors.
BN_bn2mpi() returns the length of the representation.
BN_mpi2bn()
returns the
BIGNUM, and NULL on error.
The error codes can be obtained by
ERR_get_error(3).
ERR_get_error(3),
BN_zero(3),
ASN1_INTEGER_to_BN(3),
