The files nid.h, obj_mac.num, and obj_dat.h are generated from objects.txt and obj_mac.num. To regenerate them, run: go run objects.go objects.txt contains the list of all built-in OIDs. It is processed by objects.go to output obj_mac.num, obj_dat.h, and nid.h. obj_mac.num is the list of NID values for each OID. This is an input/output file so NID values are stable across regenerations. nid.h is the header which defines macros for all the built-in OIDs in C. obj_dat.h contains the ASN1_OBJECTs corresponding to built-in OIDs themselves along with lookup tables for search by short name, OID, etc.
