NAME

       gnutls_x509_crt_get_issuer_dn - API function


SYNOPSIS

       #include <gnutls/x509.h>

       gnutls_x509_crt_get_issuer_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 issuer in the  pro-
       vided  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.

       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_issuer_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.
