gnutls_x509_crt_get_ca_status(3) gnutls gnutls_x509_crt_get_ca_status(3) NAME
gnutls_x509_crt_get_ca_status - This function returns the certificate CA status SYNOPSIS
#include <gnutls/x509.h> int gnutls_x509_crt_get_ca_status(gnutls_x509_crt_t cert, unsigned int * critical); ARGUMENTS
gnutls_x509_crt_t cert should contain a gnutls_x509_crt_t structure unsigned int * critical will be non zero if the extension is marked as critical DESCRIPTION
This function will return certificates CA status, by reading the basicConstraints X.509 extension (2.5.29.19). If the certificate is a CA a positive value will be returned, or zero if the certificate does not have CA flag set. Use gnutls_x509_crt_get_basic_constraints() if you want to read the pathLenConstraint field too. RETURNS
A negative value may be returned in case of parsing error. If the certificate does not contain the basicConstraints extension GNUTLS_E_REQUESTED_DATA_NOT_AVAILABLE will be returned. REPORTING BUGS

gnutls_x509_crt_get_basic_constraints - This function returns the certificate basic constraints SYNOPSIS
#include <gnutls/x509.h> int gnutls_x509_crt_get_basic_constraints(gnutls_x509_crt_t cert, unsigned int * critical, int * ca, int * pathlen); ARGUMENTS
gnutls_x509_crt_t cert should contain a gnutls_x509_crt_t structure unsigned int * critical will be non zero if the extension is marked as critical int * ca pointer to output integer indicating CA status, may be NULL, value is 1 if the certificate CA flag is set, 0 otherwise. int * pathlen pointer to output integer indicating path length (may be NULL), non-negative values indicate a present pathLenConstraint field and the actual value, -1 indicate that the field is absent. DESCRIPTION
This function will read the certificate's basic constraints, and return the certificates CA status. It reads the basicConstraints X.509 extension (2.5.29.19). RETURN VALUE
If the certificate is a CA a positive value will be returned, or zero if the certificate does not have CA flag set. A negative value may be returned in case of errors. If the certificate does not contain the basicConstraints extension GNUTLS_E_REQUESTED_DATA_NOT_AVAILABLE will be returned. REPORTING BUGS
