NAME
       gnutls_x509_crt_set_dn_by_oid - Set the Certificate request subject's distinguished name

SYNOPSIS
       #include <gnutls/x509.h>

       int  gnutls_x509_crt_set_dn_by_oid(gnutls_x509_crt_t  crt,  const  char	*  oid,  unsigned  int	raw_flag,  const void * name, unsigned int
       sizeof_name);

ARGUMENTS
       gnutls_x509_crt_t crt
		   a certificate of type gnutls_x509_crt_t

       const char * oid
		   holds an Object Identifier in a null terminated string

       unsigned int raw_flag
		   must be 0, or 1 if the data are DER encoded

       const void * name
		   a pointer to the name

       unsigned int sizeof_name
		   holds the size of name

DESCRIPTION
       This function will set the part of the name of the Certificate subject, specified by the given OID. The input string  should  be  ASCII	or
       UTF-8 encoded.

       Some  helper  macros  with  popular OIDs can be found in gnutls/x509.h With this function you can only set the known OIDs. You can test for
       known OIDs using gnutls_x509_dn_oid_known(). For OIDs that are not known (by gnutls) you should properly DER encode  your  data,  and  call
       this function with raw_flag set.

RETURNS
       On success, GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS is returned, otherwise a negative error value.
