NAME¶

gnutls_x509_crq_get_pk_algorithm - API function

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.
