# NAME

d2i_X509_NAME, i2d_X509_NAME - X509_NAME encoding functions

# SYNOPSIS

     #include <openssl/x509.h>

     X509_NAME *d2i_X509_NAME(X509_NAME **a, unsigned char **pp, long length);
     int i2d_X509_NAME(X509_NAME *a, unsigned char **pp);

# DESCRIPTION

These functions decode and encode an X509_NAME structure which is the same as the Name type defined in RFC2459 (and elsewhere) and used for example in certificate subject and issuer names.

Othewise the functions behave in a similar way to `d2i_X509()` and `i2d_X509()` described in the d2i_X509 manual page.
