=head1 SYNOPSIS

=for comment generic

 #include <openssl/pem.h>

 DECLARE_PEM_rw(name, TYPE)

 TYPE *PEM_read_TYPE(FILE *fp, TYPE **a, pem_password_cb *cb, void *u);
 TYPE *PEM_read_bio_TYPE(BIO *bp, TYPE **a, pem_password_cb *cb, void *u);
 int PEM_write_TYPE(FILE *fp, const TYPE *a);
 int PEM_write_bio_TYPE(BIO *bp, const TYPE *a);

=head1 DESCRIPTION

In the description below, I<TYPE> is used
as a placeholder for any of the OpenSSL datatypes, such as I<X509>.
The macro B<DECLARE_PEM_rw> expands to the set of declarations shown in
the next four lines of the synopsis.

These routines convert between local instances of ASN1 datatypes and
the PEM encoding.  For more information on the templates, see
L<ASN1_ITEM(3)>.  For more information on the lower-level routines used
by the functions here, see L<PEM_read(3)>.

PEM_read_TYPE() reads a PEM-encoded object of I<TYPE> from the file B<fp>
and returns it.  The B<cb> and B<u> parameters are as described in
L<pem_password_cb(3)>.

PEM_read_bio_TYPE() is similar to PEM_read_TYPE() but reads from the BIO B<bp>.

PEM_write_TYPE() writes the PEM encoding of the object B<a> to the file B<fp>.

PEM_write_bio_TYPE() similarly writes to the BIO B<bp>.

=head1 RETURN VALUES

PEM_read_TYPE() and PEM_read_bio_TYPE() return a pointer to an allocated
object, which should be released by calling TYPE_free(), or NULL on error.

PEM_write_TYPE() and PEM_write_bio_TYPE() return the number of bytes written
or zero on error.
