NAME¶
gnutls_crypto_rnd_register2 - API function
SYNOPSIS¶
#include <gnutls/gnutls.h>
int gnutls_crypto_rnd_register2(int priority, int version, const gnutls_crypto_rnd_st * s);
ARGUMENTS¶
- int priority
- is the priority of the generator
- int version
- should be set to GNUTLS_CRYPTO_API_VERSION
- const gnutls_crypto_rnd_st * s
- is a structure holding new generator's data
DESCRIPTION¶
This function will register a random generator to be used by gnutls. Any generator registered will override the included generator and by convention kernel implemented generators have priority of 90. The generator with the lowest priority will be used by gnutls.
This function should be called before gnutls_global_init().
For simplicity you can use the convenience gnutls_crypto_rnd_register() macro.
RETURNS¶
GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS on success, otherwise an error.
