NAME
gnutls_x509_crt_get_issuer_dn_by_oid - API function
SYNOPSIS
#include <gnutls/x509.h>
int gnutls_x509_crt_get_issuer_dn_by_oid(gnutls_x509_crt_t cert, const
char * oid, unsigned indx, unsigned int raw_flag, void * buf, size_t *
buf_size);
ARGUMENTS
gnutls_x509_crt_t cert
should contain a gnutls_x509_crt_t type
const char * oid
holds an Object Identified in null terminated string
unsigned indx
In case multiple same OIDs exist in the RDN, this specifies
which to send. Use (0) to get the first one.
unsigned int raw_flag
If non-zero returns the raw DER data of the DN part.
void * buf a pointer to a structure to hold the name (may be null)
size_t * buf_size
initially holds the size of buf
DESCRIPTION
This function will extract the part of the name of the Certificate is-
suer specified by the given OID. The output, if the raw flag is not
used, will be encoded as described in RFC4514. Thus a string that is
ASCII or UTF-8 encoded, depending on the certificate data.
Some helper macros with popular OIDs can be found in gnutls/x509.h If
raw flag is (0), this function will only return known OIDs as text.
Other OIDs will be DER encoded, as described in RFC4514 -- in hex for-
mat with a '#' prefix. You can check about known OIDs using
gnutls_x509_dn_oid_known().
If buf is null then only the size will be filled. If the raw_flag is
not specified the output is always null terminated, although the
buf_size will not include the null character.
RETURNS
GNUTLS_E_SHORT_MEMORY_BUFFER if the provided buffer is not long enough,
and in that case the buf_size will be updated with the required size.
GNUTLS_E_REQUESTED_DATA_NOT_AVAILABLE if there are no data in the cur-
rent index. On success 0 is returned.
