NAME

       gnutls_ia_allocate_server_credentials - Used to allocate an gnutls_ia_server_credentials_t structure

SYNOPSIS

       #include <gnutls/extra.h>

       int gnutls_ia_allocate_server_credentials(gnutls_ia_server_credentials_t * sc);

ARGUMENTS

       gnutls_ia_server_credentials_t * sc
		   is a pointer to a gnutls_ia_server_credentials_t structure.

DESCRIPTION

       This structure is complex enough to manipulate directly thus this helper function is provided in order to allocate it.

       Adding  this  credential to a session will enable TLS/IA, and will require an Application Phase after the TLS handshake (if the client sup-
       port TLS/IA).  Use gnutls_ia_require_inner_phase() to toggle the TLS/IA mode.

RETURNS

       On success, GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS (0) is returned, otherwise an error code is returned.
