NAME
       gnutls_x509_crt_get_preferred_hash_algorithm - API function

SYNOPSIS
       #include <gnutls/compat.h>

       int gnutls_x509_crt_get_preferred_hash_algorithm(gnutls_x509_crt_t crt,
       gnutls_digest_algorithm_t *           hash, unsigned int * mand);

ARGUMENTS
       gnutls_x509_crt_t crt
                   Holds the certificate

       gnutls_digest_algorithm_t *           hash
                   The result of the call with the  hash  algorithm  used  for
                   signature

       unsigned int * mand
                   If non-zero it means that the algorithm MUST use this hash.
                   May be NULL.

DESCRIPTION
       This function will read the certificate and return the appropriate  di-
       gest  algorithm to use for signing with this certificate. Some certifi-
       cates (i.e.  DSA might not be able to sign without the preferred  algo-
       rithm).

DEPRECATED
       Please use gnutls_pubkey_get_preferred_hash_algorithm().

RETURNS
       the 0 if the hash algorithm is found. A negative error code is returned
       on error.

SINCE
       2.12.0
