pub struct Nid(_);
Expand description

A numerical identifier for an OpenSSL object.

Objects in OpenSSL can have a short name, a long name, and a numerical identifier (NID). For convenience, objects are usually represented in source code using these numeric identifiers.

Users should generally not need to create new Nids.

Examples

To view the integer representation of a Nid:

use openssl::nid::Nid;

assert!(Nid::AES_256_GCM.as_raw() == 901);

External Documentation

The following documentation provides context about Nids and their usage in OpenSSL.

Implementations

Create a Nid from an integer representation.

Return the integer representation of a Nid.

Creates a new Nid for the oid with short name sn and long name ln.

This corresponds to OBJ_create.

Returns the Nids of the digest and public key algorithms associated with a signature ID.

This corresponds to OBJ_find_sigid_algs.

This corresponds to OBJ_find_sigid_algs.

Returns the string representation of a Nid (long).

This corresponds to OBJ_nid2ln.

Returns the string representation of a Nid (short).

This corresponds to OBJ_nid2sn.
