.SH DESCRIPTION
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
\&\fBX509V3_set_ctx()\fR fills in the basic fields of \fIctx\fR of type \fBX509V3_CTX\fR,
providing details potentially needed by functions producing X509 v3 extensions,
e.g., to look up values for filling in authority key identifiers.
Any of \fIsubject\fR, \fIreq\fR, or \fIcrl\fR may be provided, pointing to a certificate,
certification request, or certificate revocation list, respectively.
When constructing the subject key identifier of a certificate by computing a
hash value of its public key, the public key is taken from \fIsubject\fR or \fIreq\fR.
Similarly, when constructing subject alternative names from any email addresses
contained in a subject DN, the subject DN is taken from \fIsubject\fR or \fIreq\fR.
If \fIsubject\fR or \fIcrl\fR is provided, \fIissuer\fR should point to its issuer,
for instance to help generating an authority key identifier extension.
Note that if \fIsubject\fR is provided, \fIissuer\fR may be the same as \fIsubject\fR,
which means that \fIsubject\fR is self-issued (or even self-signed).
\&\fIflags\fR may be 0
or contain \fBX509V3_CTX_TEST\fR, which means that just the syntax of
extension definitions is to be checked without actually producing an extension,
or \fBX509V3_CTX_REPLACE\fR, which means that each X.509v3 extension added as
defined in some configuration section shall replace any already existing
extension with the same OID.
.PP
\&\fBX509V3_set_issuer_pkey()\fR explicitly sets the issuer private key of
the certificate that has been provided in \fIctx\fR.
This should be done for self-issued certificates (which may be self-signed
or not) to provide fallback data for the authority key identifier extension.
.SH "RETURN VALUES"
.IX Header "RETURN VALUES"
\&\fBX509V3_set_ctx()\fR and \fBX509V3_set_issuer_pkey()\fR
return 1 on success and 0 on error.
