.Sh DESCRIPTION
These functions provide read access to the X.501 Attribute object
.Fa attr .
.Pp
For
.Fn X509_ATTRIBUTE_get0_data ,
the
.Fa type
argument usually is one of the
.Dv V_ASN1_*
constants defined in
.In openssl/asn1.h .
For example, if a return value of the type
.Vt ASN1_OCTET_STRING
is expected, pass
.Dv V_ASN1_OCTET_STRING
as the
.Fa type
argument.
The
.Fa data
argument is ignored; passing
.Dv NULL
is recommended.
.Sh RETURN VALUES
.Fn X509_ATTRIBUTE_get0_object
returns an internal pointer to the type of
.Fa attr
or
.Dv NULL
if
.Fa attr
is
.Dv NULL
or if its type is not set.
.Pp
.Fn X509_ATTRIBUTE_count
returns the number of values stored in
.Fa attr
or 0 if no value or values are set.
.Pp
.Fn X509_ATTRIBUTE_get0_type
returns an internal pointer to the ASN.1 ANY object
representing the value with the given zero-based
.Fa index
or
.Dv NULL
if
.Fa attr
is
.Dv NULL ,
if the
.Fa index
is larger than or equal to the number of values stored in
.Fa attr ,
or if no value or values are set.
.Pp
.Fn X509_ATTRIBUTE_get0_data
returns an internal pointer to the data
contained in the value with the given zero-based
.Fa index
or
.Dv NULL
if
.Fa attr
is
.Dv NULL ,
if the
.Fa index
is larger than or equal to the number of values stored in
.Fa attr ,
if no value or values are set,
or if the ASN.1 ANY object representing the value with the given
.Fa index
is not of the requested
.Fa type .
