Name

gnutls_x509_crq_get_pk_algorithm — get certificate request public key algorithm

Synopsis

#include <gnutls/x509.h>
int gnutls_x509_crq_get_pk_algorithm( gnutls_x509_crq_t crq,
  unsigned int * bits);
 

ARGUMENTS

gnutls_x509_crq_t crq

should contain a gnutls_x509_crq_t structure

unsigned int * bits

if bits is non−NULL it will hold the size of the parameters' in bits

DESCRIPTION

This function will return the public key algorithm of a PKCS10 certificate request.

If bits is non−NULL, it should have enough size to hold the parameters size in bits. For RSA the bits returned is the modulus. For DSA the bits returned are of the public exponent.

RETURNS

a member of the gnutls_pk_algorithm_t enumeration on success, or a negative value on error.
