gnutls_x509_crt_get_preferred_hash_algorithm(3) gnutls
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
digest algorithm to use for signing with this certificate. Some
certificates (i.e. DSA might not be able to sign without the preferred
algorithm).
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
