NAME

       gnutls_fingerprint - API function


SYNOPSIS

       #include <gnutls/gnutls.h>

       gnutls_fingerprint(3)     algo,    const
       gnutls_datum_t * data, void * result, size_t * result_size);


ARGUMENTS

       gnutls_digest_algorithm_t algo
                   is a digest algorithm

       const gnutls_datum_t * data
                   is the data

       void * result
                   is the place where the result will be copied (may be null).

       size_t * result_size
                   should  hold the size of the result. The actual size of the
                   returned result will also be copied there.


DESCRIPTION

       This function will calculate a fingerprint (actually a  hash),  of  the
       given  data.   The result is not printable data.  You should convert it
       to hex, or to something else printable.

       This is the usual way to  calculate  a  fingerprint  of  an  X.509  DER
       encoded  certificate.   Note however that the fingerprint of an OpenPGP
       certificate is not just a hash and cannot be calculated with this func-
       tion.


RETURNS

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