gnutls_x509_crq_get_dn_by_oid(3)				      gnutls					  gnutls_x509_crq_get_dn_by_oid(3)

NAME

       gnutls_x509_crq_get_dn_by_oid - This function returns the Certificate request subject's distinguished name

SYNOPSIS

       #include <gnutls/x509.h>

       int  gnutls_x509_crq_get_dn_by_oid(gnutls_x509_crq_t  crq,  const  char	*  oid,  int  indx,  unsigned  int  raw_flag, void * buf, size_t *
       sizeof_buf);

ARGUMENTS

       gnutls_x509_crq_t crq
		   should contain a gnutls_x509_crq_t structure

       const char * oid
		   holds an Object Identified in null terminated string

       int indx    In case multiple same OIDs exist in the RDN, this specifies which to send. Use zero 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 * sizeof_buf
		   initially holds the size of buf

DESCRIPTION

       This function will extract the part of the name of the Certificate request subject, specified by the given OID. The output will be  encoded
       as described in RFC2253. The output string will be 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 zero, this function will only return known OIDs as text.
       Other OIDs will be DER encoded, as described in RFC2253 -- in hex format with a 'using gnutls_x509_dn_oid_known().

       If buf is null then only the size will be filled.

RETURNS

       GNUTLS_E_SHORT_MEMORY_BUFFER if the provided buffer is not long enough, and in that case the *sizeof_buf will be updated with the  required
       size.  On success 0 is returned.

NAME

       gnutls_x509_rdn_get_by_oid - parse an RDN sequence and returns a string

SYNOPSIS

       #include <gnutls/x509.h>

       int  gnutls_x509_rdn_get_by_oid(const  gnutls_datum_t  *  idn,  const  char  *  oid,  int indx, unsigned int raw_flag, void * buf, size_t *
       sizeof_buf);

ARGUMENTS

       const gnutls_datum_t * idn
		   should contain a DER encoded RDN sequence

       const char * oid
		   an Object Identifier

       int indx    In case multiple same OIDs exist in the RDN indicates which to send. Use 0 for the first one.

       unsigned int raw_flag
		   If non zero then the raw DER data are returned.

       void * buf  a pointer to a structure to hold the peer's name

       size_t * sizeof_buf
		   holds the size of buf

DESCRIPTION

       This function will return the name of the given Object identifier, of the RDN sequence.	The name will be  encoded  using  the  rules  from
       RFC2253.

RETURNS

       On  success, GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS is returned, or GNUTLS_E_SHORT_MEMORY_BUFFER is returned and *sizeof_buf is updated if the provided buffer is
       not long enough, otherwise a negative error value.
