+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
+The function \fIASN1_TIME_set()\fR sets the \s-1ASN1_TIME\s0 structure \fBs\fR to the
+time represented by the time_t value \fBt\fR. If \fBs\fR is \s-1NULL\s0 a new \s-1ASN1_TIME\s0
+structure is allocated and returned.
+.PP
+\&\fIASN1_TIME_adj()\fR sets the \s-1ASN1_TIME\s0 structure \fBs\fR to the time represented
+by the time \fBoffset_day\fR and \fBoffset_sec\fR after the time_t value \fBt\fR.
+The values of \fBoffset_day\fR or \fBoffset_sec\fR can be negative to set a
+time before \fBt\fR. The \fBoffset_sec\fR value can also exceed the number of
+seconds in a day. If \fBs\fR is \s-1NULL\s0 a new \s-1ASN1_TIME\s0 structure is allocated
+and returned.
+.PP
+\&\fIASN1_TIME_set_string()\fR sets \s-1ASN1_TIME\s0 structure \fBs\fR to the time
+represented by string \fBstr\fR which must be in appropriate \s-1ASN.1\s0 time
+format (for example \s-1YYMMDDHHMMSSZ\s0 or \s-1YYYYMMDDHHMMSSZ\s0).
+.PP
+\&\fIASN1_TIME_check()\fR checks the syntax of \s-1ASN1_TIME\s0 structure \fBs\fR.
+.PP
+\&\fIASN1_TIME_print()\fR prints out the time \fBs\fR to \s-1BIO \s0\fBb\fR in human readable
+format. It will be of the format \s-1MMM DD HH:MM:SS YYYY\s0 [\s-1GMT\s0], for example
+\&\*(L"Feb 3 00:55:52 2015 \s-1GMT\*(R"\s0 it does not include a newline. If the time
+structure has invalid format it prints out \*(L"Bad time value\*(R" and returns
+an error.
+.PP
+\&\fIASN1_TIME_diff()\fR sets \fB*pday\fR and \fB*psec\fR to the time difference between
+\&\fBfrom\fR and \fBto\fR. If \fBto\fR represents a time later than \fBfrom\fR then
+one or both (depending on the time difference) of \fB*pday\fR and \fB*psec\fR
+will be positive. If \fBto\fR represents a time earlier than \fBfrom\fR then
+one or both of \fB*pday\fR and \fB*psec\fR will be negative. If \fBto\fR and \fBfrom\fR
+represent the same time then \fB*pday\fR and \fB*psec\fR will both be zero.
+If both \fB*pday\fR and \fB*psec\fR are non-zero they will always have the same
+sign. The value of \fB*psec\fR will always be less than the number of seconds
+in a day. If \fBfrom\fR or \fBto\fR is \s-1NULL\s0 the current time is used.
+.SH "NOTES"
+.IX Header "NOTES"
+The \s-1ASN1_TIME\s0 structure corresponds to the \s-1ASN.1\s0 structure \fBTime\fR
+defined in \s-1RFC5280\s0 et al. The time setting functions obey the rules outlined
+in \s-1RFC5280:\s0 if the date can be represented by UTCTime it is used, else
+GeneralizedTime is used.
+.PP
+The \s-1ASN1_TIME\s0 structure is represented as an \s-1ASN1_STRING\s0 internally and can
+be freed up using \fIASN1_STRING_free()\fR.
+.PP
+The \s-1ASN1_TIME\s0 structure can represent years from 0000 to 9999 but no attempt
+is made to correct ancient calendar changes (for example from Julian to
+Gregorian calendars).
+.PP
+Some applications add offset times directly to a time_t value and pass the
+results to \fIASN1_TIME_set()\fR (or equivalent). This can cause problems as the
+time_t value can overflow on some systems resulting in unexpected results.
+New applications should use \fIASN1_TIME_adj()\fR instead and pass the offset value
+in the \fBoffset_sec\fR and \fBoffset_day\fR parameters instead of directly
+manipulating a time_t value.
+.SH "BUGS"
+.IX Header "BUGS"
+\&\fIASN1_TIME_print()\fR currently does not print out the time zone: it either prints
+out \*(L"\s-1GMT\*(R"\s0 or nothing. But all certificates complying with \s-1RFC5280\s0 et al use \s-1GMT\s0
+anyway.
+.SH "EXAMPLES"
+.IX Header "EXAMPLES"

+\& #include <openssl/asn1.h>

+\& time_t t;

+.Ve
+.SH "RETURN VALUES"
+.IX Header "RETURN VALUES"
+\&\fIASN1_TIME_set()\fR and \fIASN1_TIME_adj()\fR return a pointer to an \s-1ASN1_TIME\s0 structure
+or \s-1NULL\s0 if an error occurred.
+.PP
+\&\fIASN1_TIME_set_string()\fR returns 1 if the time value is successfully set and

+.PP
+\&\fIASN1_TIME_check()\fR returns 1 if the structure is syntactically correct and 0
+otherwise.
+.PP
+\&\fIASN1_TIME_print()\fR returns 1 if the time is successfully printed out and 0 if
+an error occurred (I/O error or invalid time format).
+.PP
+\&\fIASN1_TIME_diff()\fR returns 1 for sucess and 0 for failure. It can fail if the
+pass \s-1ASN1_TIME\s0 structure has invalid syntax for example.
