 =head1 DESCRIPTION

 B<OSSL_DECODER> is a method for decoders, which know how to
 decode encoded data into an object of some type that the rest
 of OpenSSL knows how to handle.

 OSSL_DECODER_fetch() looks for an algorithm within the provider that
 has been loaded into the B<OSSL_LIB_CTX> given by I<ctx>, having the
 name given by I<name> and the properties given by I<properties>.
 The I<name> determines what type of object the fetched decoder
 method is expected to be able to decode, and the properties are
 used to determine the expected output type.
 For known properties and the values they may have, please have a look
 in L<provider-encoder(7)/Names and properties>.

 OSSL_DECODER_up_ref() increments the reference count for the given
 I<decoder>.

 OSSL_DECODER_free() decrements the reference count for the given
 I<decoder>, and when the count reaches zero, frees it.

 OSSL_DECODER_get0_provider() returns the provider of the given
 I<decoder>.

 OSSL_DECODER_get0_properties() returns the property definition associated
 with the given I<decoder>.

 OSSL_DECODER_is_a() checks if I<decoder> is an implementation
 of an algorithm that's identifiable with I<name>.

 OSSL_DECODER_get0_name() returns the name used to fetch the given I<decoder>.

 OSSL_DECODER_get0_description() returns a description of the I<decoder>, meant
 for display and human consumption.  The description is at the discretion
 of the I<decoder> implementation.

 OSSL_DECODER_names_do_all() traverses all names for the given
 I<decoder>, and calls I<fn> with each name and I<data> as arguments.

 OSSL_DECODER_do_all_provided() traverses all decoder
 implementations by all activated providers in the library context
 I<libctx>, and for each of the implementations, calls I<fn> with the
 implementation method and I<arg> as arguments.

 OSSL_DECODER_gettable_params() returns an L<OSSL_PARAM(3)>
 array of parameter descriptors.

 OSSL_DECODER_get_params() attempts to get parameters specified
 with an L<OSSL_PARAM(3)> array I<params>.  Parameters that the
 implementation doesn't recognise should be ignored.

 =head1 RETURN VALUES

 OSSL_DECODER_fetch() returns a pointer to an OSSL_DECODER object,
 or NULL on error.

 OSSL_DECODER_up_ref() returns 1 on success, or 0 on error.

 OSSL_DECODER_free() doesn't return any value.

 OSSL_DECODER_get0_provider() returns a pointer to a provider object, or
 NULL on error.

 OSSL_DECODER_get0_properties() returns a pointer to a property
 definition string, or NULL on error.

 OSSL_DECODER_is_a() returns 1 if I<decoder> was identifiable,
 otherwise 0.

 OSSL_DECODER_get0_name() returns the algorithm name from the provided
 implementation for the given I<decoder>. Note that the I<decoder> may have
 multiple synonyms associated with it. In this case the first name from the
 algorithm definition is returned. Ownership of the returned string is retained
 by the I<decoder> object and should not be freed by the caller.

 OSSL_DECODER_get0_description() returns a pointer to a description, or NULL if
 there isn't one.

 OSSL_DECODER_names_do_all() returns 1 if the callback was called for all
 names. A return value of 0 means that the callback was not called for any names.

 =head1 NOTES

 OSSL_DECODER_fetch() may be called implicitly by other fetching
 functions, using the same library context and properties.
 Any other API that uses keys will typically do this.

 =head1 EXAMPLES

 To list all decoders in a provider to a bio_out:

  static void collect_decoders(OSSL_DECODER *decoder, void *stack)
  {
      STACK_OF(OSSL_DECODER) *decoder_stack = stack;

      sk_OSSL_DECODER_push(decoder_stack, decoder);
      OSSL_DECODER_up_ref(decoder);
  }

  void print_name(const char *name, void *vdata)
  {
      BIO *bio = vdata;

      BIO_printf(bio, "%s ", name);
  }


  STACK_OF(OSSL_DECODER) *decoders;
  int i;

  decoders = sk_OSSL_DECODER_new_null();

  BIO_printf(bio_out, "DECODERs provided by %s:\n", provider);
  OSSL_DECODER_do_all_provided(NULL, collect_decoders,
                               decoders);

  for (i = 0; i < sk_OSSL_DECODER_num(decoders); i++) {
      OSSL_DECODER *decoder = sk_OSSL_DECODER_value(decoders, i);

      if (strcmp(OSSL_PROVIDER_get0_name(OSSL_DECODER_get0_provider(decoder)),
                 provider) != 0)
          continue;

      if (OSSL_DECODER_names_do_all(decoder, print_name, bio_out))
             BIO_printf(bio_out, "\n");
  }
  sk_OSSL_DECODER_pop_free(decoders, OSSL_DECODER_free);
