gnutls_x509_crt_get_issuer_alt_name2 - Man Page

API function

Synopsis

#include <gnutls/x509.h>

int gnutls_x509_crt_get_issuer_alt_name2(gnutls_x509_crt_t cert, unsigned int seq, void * ian, size_t * ian_size, unsigned int * ian_type, unsigned int * critical);

Arguments

gnutls_x509_crt_t cert

should contain a gnutls_x509_crt_t type

unsigned int seq

specifies the sequence number of the alt name (0 for the first one, 1 for the second etc.)

void * ian

is the place where the alternative name will be copied to

size_t * ian_size

holds the size of ret.

unsigned int * ian_type

holds the type of the alternative name (one of gnutls_x509_subject_alt_name_t).

unsigned int * critical

will be non-zero if the extension is marked as critical (may be null)

Description

This function will return the alternative names, contained in the given certificate. It is the same as gnutls_x509_crt_get_issuer_alt_name() except for the fact that it will return the type of the alternative name in  ian_type even if the function fails for some reason (i.e.  the buffer provided is not enough).

Returns

the alternative issuer name type on success, one of the enumerated gnutls_x509_subject_alt_name_t.  It will return GNUTLS_E_SHORT_MEMORY_BUFFER if  ian_size is not large enough to hold the value.  In that case  ian_size will be updated with the required size.  If the certificate does not have an Alternative name with the specified sequence number then GNUTLS_E_REQUESTED_DATA_NOT_AVAILABLE is returned.

Since

2.10.0
