NAME
gnutls_credentials_set - API function
SYNOPSIS
#include <gnutls/gnutls.h>
int gnutls_credentials_set(gnutls_session_t session, gnutls_creden-
tials_type_t type, void * cred);
ARGUMENTS
gnutls_session_t session
is a gnutls_session_t type.
gnutls_credentials_type_t type
is the type of the credentials
void * cred the credentials to set
DESCRIPTION
Sets the needed credentials for the specified type. E.g. username,
password - or public and private keys etc. The cred parameter is a
structure that depends on the specified type and on the current session
(client or server).
In order to minimize memory usage, and share credentials between sev-
eral threads gnutls keeps a pointer to cred, and not the whole cred
structure. Thus you will have to keep the structure allocated until
you call gnutls_deinit().
For GNUTLS_CRD_ANON, cred should be gnutls_anon_client_credentials_t
in case of a client. In case of a server it should be
gnutls_anon_server_credentials_t.
For GNUTLS_CRD_SRP, cred should be gnutls_srp_client_credentials_t in
case of a client, and gnutls_srp_server_credentials_t, in case of a
server.
For GNUTLS_CRD_CERTIFICATE, cred should be gnutls_certificate_creden-
tials_t.
RETURNS
On success, GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS (0) is returned, otherwise a negative er-
ror code is returned.
