+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+These functions convert to and from
+.Vt ASN1_INTEGER
+and
+.Vt ASN1_ENUMERATED
+objects.
+.Pp
+.Fn ASN1_INTEGER_get
+converts
+.Fa a
+to the
+.Vt long
+type.
+.Pp
+.Fn ASN1_INTEGER_set
+sets the value of
+.Fa a
+to
+.Fa v .
+.Pp
+.Fn BN_to_ASN1_INTEGER
+converts
+.Fa bn
+to an
+.Vt ASN1_INTEGER .
+If
+.Fa ai
+is
+.Dv NULL ,
+a new
+.Vt ASN1_INTEGER
+object is returned.
+Otherwise, the existing object
+.Fa ai
+is used instead.
+.Pp
+.Fn ASN1_INTEGER_to_BN
+converts
+.Fa ai
+into a
+.Vt BIGNUM .
+If
+.Fa bn
+is
+.Dv NULL ,
+a new
+.Vt BIGNUM
+object is returned.
+Otherwise, the existing object
+.Fa bn
+is used instead.
+.Pp
+.Fn ASN1_ENUMERATED_get ,
+.Fn ASN1_ENUMERATED_set ,
+.Fn BN_to_ASN1_ENUMERATED ,
+and
+.Fn ASN1_ENUMERATED_to_BN
+behave like their
+.Vt ASN1_INTEGER
+counterparts except that they operate on an
+.Vt ASN1_ENUMERATED
+object.
+.Sh RETURN VALUES
+.Fn ASN1_INTEGER_get
+and
+.Fn ASN1_ENUMERATED_get
+return the converted value, 0 if
+.Fa a
+is
+.Dv NULL ,
+or \-1 on error, which is ambiguous because \-1 is a legitimate
+value for an
+.Vt ASN1_INTEGER .
+.Pp
+.Fn ASN1_INTEGER_set
+and
+.Fn ASN1_ENUMERATED_set
+return 1 for success or 0 for failure.
+They only fail if a memory allocation error occurs.
+.Pp
+.Fn BN_to_ASN1_INTEGER
+and
+.Fn BN_to_ASN1_ENUMERATED
+return an
+.Vt ASN1_INTEGER
+or
+.Vt ASN1_ENUMERATED
+object, respectively, or
+.Dv NULL
+if an error occurs.
+They only fail due to memory allocation errors.
+.Pp
+.Fn ASN1_INTEGER_to_BN
+and
+.Fn ASN1_ENUMERATED_to_BN
+return a
+.Vt BIGNUM
+object of
+.Dv NULL
+if an error occurs.
+They can fail if the passed type is incorrect (due to a programming error)
+or due to memory allocation failures.
+.Sh HISTORY
+.Fn ASN1_INTEGER_set
+first appeared in SSLeay 0.5.1.
+.Fn ASN1_INTEGER_get ,
+.Fn BN_to_ASN1_INTEGER ,
+and
+.Fn ASN1_INTEGER_to_BN
+first appeared in SSLeay 0.6.0.
+These functions have been available since
+.Ox 2.3 .
+.Pp
+.Fn ASN1_ENUMERATED_get ,
+.Fn ASN1_ENUMERATED_set ,
+.Fn BN_to_ASN1_ENUMERATED ,
+and
+.Fn ASN1_ENUMERATED_to_BN
+first appeared in OpenSSL 0.9.2b and have been available since
+.Ox 2.6 .
+.Sh CAVEATS
+In general an
+.Vt ASN1_INTEGER
+or
+.Vt ASN1_ENUMERATED
+type can contain an integer of almost arbitrary size
+and so cannot always be represented by a C
+.Vt long
+type.
+The ambiguous return values of
+.Fn ASN1_INTEGER_get
+and
+.Fn ASN1_ENUMERATED_get
+imply that these functions should be avoided if possible.
