ossl_store - Store retrieval functions
#include <openssl/store.h>
A STORE is a layer of functionality to retrieve a number of supported objects from a repository of any kind, addressable as a filename or as a URI.
The functionality supports the pattern "open a channel to the repository", "loop and retrieve one object at a time", and "finish up by closing the channel".
The retrieved objects are returned as a wrapper type OSSL_STORE_INFO, from which an OpenSSL type can be retrieved.
Support for a URI scheme is called a STORE "loader", and can be added dynamically from the calling application or from a loadable engine.
Support for the 'file' scheme is built into libcrypto. See ossl_store-file(7) for more information.
The OSS_STORE API does nothing to enforce any specific format or encoding on the pass phrase that the UI_METHOD provides. However, the pass phrase is expected to be UTF-8 encoded. The result of any other encoding is undefined.
