Hi folks,

I'm looking for openssl information on extracting a certificate's list of 
Subject Alternative names for matching a query substring to select a 
certificate in particular contexts.   All the openssl sample code that I've 
managed to find seems to be more heavy-weight than I'm interested in using a 
GENERAL_NAMES and associated data structures to extract the names based on 
types (e.g. GEN_DNS, GEN_EMAIL, GEN_URI which I can't find details about) - I'm 
happy to use this but I can't find any documentation on it (which certainly 
hasn't stopped me before).   

But I thought I'd throw out a general query, is there any simple mechanism for 
simply extracting the string (or strings) which define the x509 Subject 
Alternative Names for simple string matching?

Thanks ... N
