NAME

       gnutls_x509_crt_get_dn - API function


SYNOPSIS

       #include <gnutls/x509.h>

       gnutls_x509_crt_get_dn(3) cert, char * buf, size_t *
       buf_size);


ARGUMENTS

       gnutls_x509_crt_t cert
                   should contain a gnutls_x509_crt_t type

       char * buf  a pointer to a structure to hold the name (may be null)

       size_t * buf_size
                   initially holds the size of  buf


DESCRIPTION

       This function will copy the name of the Certificate in the provided
       buffer. The name will be in the form "C=xxxx,O=yyyy,CN=zzzz" as described
       in RFC4514. The output string will be ASCII or UTF-8 encoded, depending
       on the certificate data.

       The  buf returned will be null terminated and the  buf_size will account
       for the trailing null. If  buf is null then only the size will be filled.

       This function does not output a fully RFC4514 compliant string, if that
       is required see gnutls_x509_crt_get_dn3().


RETURNS

       GNUTLS_E_SHORT_MEMORY_BUFFER if the provided buffer is not long enough,
       and in that case the  buf_size will be updated with the required size.
       GNUTLS_E_REQUESTED_DATA_NOT_AVAILABLE if the DN does not exist, or
       another error value on error. On success 0 is returned.
