The values of \fBoffset_day\fR or \fBoffset_sec\fR can be negative to set a time before \fBt\fR. The \fBoffset_sec\fR value can also exceed the number of seconds in a day. If \fBs\fR is \s-1NULL\s0 a new structure is allocated and returned. .PP The \fBASN1_TIME_set_string()\fR, \fBASN1_UTCTIME_set_string()\fR and \&\fBASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_set_string()\fR functions set the time structure \fBs\fR to the time represented by string \fBstr\fR which must be in appropriate \s-1ASN.1\s0 time format (for example \s-1YYMMDDHHMMSSZ\s0 or \s-1YYYYMMDDHHMMSSZ\s0). If \fBs\fR is \s-1NULL\s0 this function performs a format check on \fBstr\fR only. The string \fBstr\fR is copied into \fBs\fR. .PP \&\fBASN1_TIME_set_string_X509()\fR sets \s-1ASN1_TIME\s0 structure \fBs\fR to the time represented by string \fBstr\fR which must be in appropriate time format that \s-1RFC 5280\s0 requires, which means it only allows \s-1YYMMDDHHMMSSZ\s0 and \&\s-1YYYYMMDDHHMMSSZ\s0 (leap second is rejected), all other \s-1ASN.1\s0 time format are not allowed. If \fBs\fR is \s-1NULL\s0 this function performs a format check on \fBstr\fR only. .PP The \fBASN1_TIME_normalize()\fR function converts an \s-1ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME\s0 or \&\s-1ASN1_UTCTIME\s0 into a time value that can be used in a certificate. It should be used after the \fBASN1_TIME_set_string()\fR functions and before \&\fBASN1_TIME_print()\fR functions to get consistent (i.e. \s-1GMT\s0) results. .PP The \fBASN1_TIME_check()\fR, \fBASN1_UTCTIME_check()\fR and \fBASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_check()\fR functions check the syntax of the time structure \fBs\fR. .PP The \fBASN1_TIME_print()\fR, \fBASN1_UTCTIME_print()\fR and \fBASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_print()\fR functions print the time structure \fBs\fR to \s-1BIO\s0 \fBb\fR in human readable format. It will be of the format \s-1MMM DD HH:MM:SS YYYY\s0 [\s-1GMT\s0], for example \&\(L"Feb 3 00:55:52 2015 \s-1GMT\(R"\s0 it does not include a newline. If the time structure has invalid format it prints out \(L"Bad time value\(R" and returns an error. The output for generalized time may include a fractional part following the second. .PP \&\fBASN1_TIME_to_tm()\fR converts the time \fBs\fR to the standard \fBtm\fR structure. If \fBs\fR is \s-1NULL,\s0 then the current time is converted. The output time is \s-1GMT.\s0 The \fBtm_sec\fR, \fBtm_min\fR, \fBtm_hour\fR, \fBtm_mday\fR, \fBtm_wday\fR, \fBtm_yday\fR, \&\fBtm_mon\fR and \fBtm_year\fR fields of \fBtm\fR structure are set to proper values, whereas all other fields are set to 0. If \fBtm\fR is \s-1NULL\s0 this function performs a format check on \fBs\fR only. If \fBs\fR is in Generalized format with fractional seconds, e.g. \s-1YYYYMMDDHHMMSS.SSSZ,\s0 the fractional seconds will be lost while converting \fBs\fR to \fBtm\fR structure. .PP \&\fBASN1_TIME_diff()\fR sets \fBpday\fR and \fBpsec\fR to the time difference between \&\fBfrom\fR and \fBto\fR. If \fBto\fR represents a time later than \fBfrom\fR then one or both (depending on the time difference) of \fBpday\fR and \fBpsec\fR will be positive. If \fBto\fR represents a time earlier than \fBfrom\fR then one or both of \fBpday\fR and \fBpsec\fR will be negative. If \fBto\fR and \fBfrom\fR represent the same time then \fBpday\fR and \fBpsec\fR will both be zero. If both \fBpday\fR and \fBpsec\fR are nonzero they will always have the same sign. The value of \fBpsec\fR will always be less than the number of seconds in a day. If \fBfrom\fR or \fBto\fR is \s-1NULL\s0 the current time is used. .PP The \fBASN1_TIME_cmp_time_t()\fR and \fBASN1_UTCTIME_cmp_time_t()\fR functions compare the two times represented by the time structure \fBs\fR and the time_t \fBt\fR. .PP The \fBASN1_TIME_compare()\fR function compares the two times represented by the time structures \fBa\fR and \fBb\fR. .PP The \fBASN1_TIME_to_generalizedtime()\fR function converts an \s-1ASN1_TIME\s0 to an \&\s-1ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME,\s0 regardless of year. If either \fBout\fR or \&\fBout\fR are \s-1NULL,\s0 then a new object is allocated and must be freed after use. .SH "NOTES" .IX Header "NOTES" The \s-1ASN1_TIME\s0 structure corresponds to the \s-1ASN.1\s0 structure \fBTime\fR defined in \s-1RFC5280\s0 et al. The time setting functions obey the rules outlined in \s-1RFC5280:\s0 if the date can be represented by UTCTime it is used, else GeneralizedTime is used. .PP The \s-1ASN1_TIME, ASN1_UTCTIME\s0 and \s-1ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME\s0 structures are represented as an \s-1ASN1_STRING\s0 internally and can be freed up using \fBASN1_STRING_free()\fR. .PP The \s-1ASN1_TIME\s0 structure can represent years from 0000 to 9999 but no attempt is made to correct ancient calendar changes (for example from Julian to Gregorian calendars). .PP \&\s-1ASN1_UTCTIME\s0 is limited to a year range of 1950 through 2049. .PP Some applications add offset times directly to a time_t value and pass the results to \fBASN1_TIME_set()\fR (or equivalent). This can cause problems as the time_t value can overflow on some systems resulting in unexpected results. New applications should use \fBASN1_TIME_adj()\fR instead and pass the offset value in the \fBoffset_sec\fR and \fBoffset_day\fR parameters instead of directly manipulating a time_t value. .PP \&\fBASN1_TIME_adj()\fR may change the type from \s-1ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME\s0 to \s-1ASN1_UTCTIME,\s0 or vice versa, based on the resulting year. The \fBASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_adj()\fR and \&\fBASN1_UTCTIME_adj()\fR functions will not modify the type of the return structure. .PP It is recommended that functions starting with \s-1ASN1_TIME\s0 be used instead of those starting with \s-1ASN1_UTCTIME\s0 or \s-1ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME.\s0 The functions starting with \s-1ASN1_UTCTIME\s0 and \s-1ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME\s0 act only on that specific time format. The functions starting with \s-1ASN1_TIME\s0 will operate on either format. .SH "BUGS" .IX Header "BUGS" \&\fBASN1_TIME_print()\fR, \fBASN1_UTCTIME_print()\fR and \fBASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_print()\fR do not print out the timezone: it either prints out \(L"\s-1GMT\(R"\s0 or nothing. But all certificates complying with \s-1RFC5280\s0 et al use \s-1GMT\s0 anyway. .PP Use the \fBASN1_TIME_normalize()\fR function to normalize the time value before printing to get \s-1GMT\s0 results. .SH "RETURN VALUES" .IX Header "RETURN VALUES" \&\fBASN1_TIME_set()\fR, \fBASN1_UTCTIME_set()\fR, \fBASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_set()\fR, \fBASN1_TIME_adj()\fR, ASN1_UTCTIME_adj and ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_set return a pointer to a time structure or \s-1NULL\s0 if an error occurred. .PP \&\fBASN1_TIME_set_string()\fR, \fBASN1_UTCTIME_set_string()\fR, \fBASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_set_string()\fR \&\fBASN1_TIME_set_string_X509()\fR return 1 if the time value is successfully set and 0 otherwise. .PP \&\fBASN1_TIME_normalize()\fR returns 1 on success, and 0 on error. .PP \&\fBASN1_TIME_check()\fR, ASN1_UTCTIME_check and \fBASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_check()\fR return 1 if the structure is syntactically correct and 0 otherwise. .PP \&\fBASN1_TIME_print()\fR, \fBASN1_UTCTIME_print()\fR and \fBASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_print()\fR return 1 if the time is successfully printed out and 0 if an error occurred (I/O error or invalid time format). .PP \&\fBASN1_TIME_to_tm()\fR returns 1 if the time is successfully parsed and 0 if an error occurred (invalid time format). .PP \&\fBASN1_TIME_diff()\fR returns 1 for success and 0 for failure. It can fail if the passed-in time structure has invalid syntax, for example. .PP \&\fBASN1_TIME_cmp_time_t()\fR and \fBASN1_UTCTIME_cmp_time_t()\fR return \-1 if \fBs\fR is before \fBt\fR, 0 if \fBs\fR equals \fBt\fR, or 1 if \fBs\fR is after \fBt\fR. \-2 is returned on error. .PP \&\fBASN1_TIME_compare()\fR returns \-1 if \fBa\fR is before \fBb\fR, 0 if \fBa\fR equals \fBb\fR, or 1 if \fBa\fR is after \fBb\fR. \-2 is returned on error. .PP \&\fBASN1_TIME_to_generalizedtime()\fR returns a pointer to the appropriate time structure on success or \s-1NULL\s0 if an error occurred. .SH "EXAMPLES" .IX Header "EXAMPLES" Set a time structure to one hour after the current time and print it out: .PP .Vb 2 \& #include <time.h> \& #include <openssl/asn1.h> \& \& ASN1_TIME tm; \& time_t t; \& BIO b; \& \& t = time(NULL); \& tm = ASN1_TIME_adj(NULL, t, 0, 60 60); \& b = BIO_new_fp(stdout, BIO_NOCLOSE); \& ASN1_TIME_print(b, tm); \& ASN1_STRING_free(tm); \& BIO_free(b); .Ve .PP Determine if one time is later or sooner than the current time: .PP .Vb 1 \& int day, sec; \& \& if (!ASN1_TIME_diff(&day, &sec, NULL, to)) \& /* Invalid time format / \& \& if (day > 0 \|\| sec > 0) \& printf("Later\en"); \& else if (day < 0 \|\| sec < 0) \& printf("Sooner\en"); \& else \& printf("Same\en"); .Ve .SH "HISTORY" .IX Header "HISTORY" The \fBASN1_TIME_to_tm()\fR function was added in OpenSSL 1.1.1.

.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
The \fBASN1_TIME_set()\fR, \fBASN1_UTCTIME_set()\fR and \fBASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_set()\fR
functions set the structure \fBs\fR to the time represented by the time_t
value \fBt\fR. If \fBs\fR is \s-1NULL\s0 a new time structure is allocated and returned.
.PP
The \fBASN1_TIME_adj()\fR, \fBASN1_UTCTIME_adj()\fR and \fBASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_adj()\fR
functions set the time structure \fBs\fR to the time represented
by the time \fBoffset_day\fR and \fBoffset_sec\fR after the time_t value \fBt\fR.
The values of \fBoffset_day\fR or \fBoffset_sec\fR can be negative to set a
time before \fBt\fR. The \fBoffset_sec\fR value can also exceed the number of
seconds in a day. If \fBs\fR is \s-1NULL\s0 a new structure is allocated
and returned.
.PP
The \fBASN1_TIME_set_string()\fR, \fBASN1_UTCTIME_set_string()\fR and
\&\fBASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_set_string()\fR functions set the time structure \fBs\fR
to the time represented by string \fBstr\fR which must be in appropriate \s-1ASN.1\s0
time format (for example \s-1YYMMDDHHMMSSZ\s0 or \s-1YYYYMMDDHHMMSSZ\s0). If \fBs\fR is \s-1NULL\s0
this function performs a format check on \fBstr\fR only. The string \fBstr\fR
is copied into \fBs\fR.
.PP
\&\fBASN1_TIME_set_string_X509()\fR sets \s-1ASN1_TIME\s0 structure \fBs\fR to the time
represented by string \fBstr\fR which must be in appropriate time format
that \s-1RFC 5280\s0 requires, which means it only allows \s-1YYMMDDHHMMSSZ\s0 and
\&\s-1YYYYMMDDHHMMSSZ\s0 (leap second is rejected), all other \s-1ASN.1\s0 time format
are not allowed. If \fBs\fR is \s-1NULL\s0 this function performs a format check
on \fBstr\fR only.
.PP
The \fBASN1_TIME_normalize()\fR function converts an \s-1ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME\s0 or
\&\s-1ASN1_UTCTIME\s0 into a time value that can be used in a certificate. It
should be used after the \fBASN1_TIME_set_string()\fR functions and before
\&\fBASN1_TIME_print()\fR functions to get consistent (i.e. \s-1GMT\s0) results.
.PP
The \fBASN1_TIME_check()\fR, \fBASN1_UTCTIME_check()\fR and \fBASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_check()\fR
functions check the syntax of the time structure \fBs\fR.
.PP
The \fBASN1_TIME_print()\fR, \fBASN1_UTCTIME_print()\fR and \fBASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_print()\fR
functions print the time structure \fBs\fR to \s-1BIO\s0 \fBb\fR in human readable
format. It will be of the format \s-1MMM DD HH:MM:SS YYYY\s0 [\s-1GMT\s0], for example
\&\*(L"Feb  3 00:55:52 2015 \s-1GMT\*(R"\s0 it does not include a newline. If the time
structure has invalid format it prints out \*(L"Bad time value\*(R" and returns
an error. The output for generalized time may include a fractional part
following the second.
.PP
\&\fBASN1_TIME_to_tm()\fR converts the time \fBs\fR to the standard \fBtm\fR structure.
If \fBs\fR is \s-1NULL,\s0 then the current time is converted. The output time is \s-1GMT.\s0
The \fBtm_sec\fR, \fBtm_min\fR, \fBtm_hour\fR, \fBtm_mday\fR, \fBtm_wday\fR, \fBtm_yday\fR,
\&\fBtm_mon\fR and \fBtm_year\fR fields of \fBtm\fR structure are set to proper values,
whereas all other fields are set to 0. If \fBtm\fR is \s-1NULL\s0 this function performs
a format check on \fBs\fR only. If \fBs\fR is in Generalized format with fractional
seconds, e.g. \s-1YYYYMMDDHHMMSS.SSSZ,\s0 the fractional seconds will be lost while
converting \fBs\fR to \fBtm\fR structure.
.PP
\&\fBASN1_TIME_diff()\fR sets \fB*pday\fR and \fB*psec\fR to the time difference between
\&\fBfrom\fR and \fBto\fR. If \fBto\fR represents a time later than \fBfrom\fR then
one or both (depending on the time difference) of \fB*pday\fR and \fB*psec\fR
will be positive. If \fBto\fR represents a time earlier than \fBfrom\fR then
one or both of \fB*pday\fR and \fB*psec\fR will be negative. If \fBto\fR and \fBfrom\fR
represent the same time then \fB*pday\fR and \fB*psec\fR will both be zero.
If both \fB*pday\fR and \fB*psec\fR are nonzero they will always have the same
sign. The value of \fB*psec\fR will always be less than the number of seconds
in a day. If \fBfrom\fR or \fBto\fR is \s-1NULL\s0 the current time is used.
.PP
The \fBASN1_TIME_cmp_time_t()\fR and \fBASN1_UTCTIME_cmp_time_t()\fR functions compare
the two times represented by the time structure \fBs\fR and the time_t \fBt\fR.
.PP
The \fBASN1_TIME_compare()\fR function compares the two times represented by the
time structures \fBa\fR and \fBb\fR.
.PP
The \fBASN1_TIME_to_generalizedtime()\fR function converts an \s-1ASN1_TIME\s0 to an
\&\s-1ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME,\s0 regardless of year. If either \fBout\fR or
\&\fB*out\fR are \s-1NULL,\s0 then a new object is allocated and must be freed after use.
.SH "NOTES"
.IX Header "NOTES"
The \s-1ASN1_TIME\s0 structure corresponds to the \s-1ASN.1\s0 structure \fBTime\fR
defined in \s-1RFC5280\s0 et al. The time setting functions obey the rules outlined
in \s-1RFC5280:\s0 if the date can be represented by UTCTime it is used, else
GeneralizedTime is used.
.PP
The \s-1ASN1_TIME, ASN1_UTCTIME\s0 and \s-1ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME\s0 structures are represented
as an \s-1ASN1_STRING\s0 internally and can be freed up using \fBASN1_STRING_free()\fR.
.PP
The \s-1ASN1_TIME\s0 structure can represent years from 0000 to 9999 but no attempt
is made to correct ancient calendar changes (for example from Julian to
Gregorian calendars).
.PP
\&\s-1ASN1_UTCTIME\s0 is limited to a year range of 1950 through 2049.
.PP
Some applications add offset times directly to a time_t value and pass the
results to \fBASN1_TIME_set()\fR (or equivalent). This can cause problems as the
time_t value can overflow on some systems resulting in unexpected results.
New applications should use \fBASN1_TIME_adj()\fR instead and pass the offset value
in the \fBoffset_sec\fR and \fBoffset_day\fR parameters instead of directly
manipulating a time_t value.
.PP
\&\fBASN1_TIME_adj()\fR may change the type from \s-1ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME\s0 to \s-1ASN1_UTCTIME,\s0
or vice versa, based on the resulting year. The \fBASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_adj()\fR and
\&\fBASN1_UTCTIME_adj()\fR functions will not modify the type of the return structure.
.PP
It is recommended that functions starting with \s-1ASN1_TIME\s0 be used instead of
those starting with \s-1ASN1_UTCTIME\s0 or \s-1ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME.\s0 The functions
starting with \s-1ASN1_UTCTIME\s0 and \s-1ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME\s0 act only on that specific
time format. The functions starting with \s-1ASN1_TIME\s0 will operate on either
format.
.SH "BUGS"
.IX Header "BUGS"
\&\fBASN1_TIME_print()\fR, \fBASN1_UTCTIME_print()\fR and \fBASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_print()\fR
do not print out the timezone: it either prints out \*(L"\s-1GMT\*(R"\s0 or nothing. But all
certificates complying with \s-1RFC5280\s0 et al use \s-1GMT\s0 anyway.
.PP
Use the \fBASN1_TIME_normalize()\fR function to normalize the time value before
printing to get \s-1GMT\s0 results.
