NAME

       gnutls_x509_crt_set_dn_by_oid - API function


SYNOPSIS

       #include <gnutls/x509.h>

       gnutls_x509_crt_set_dn_by_oid(3)  crt, const char *
       oid,  unsigned  int  raw_flag,  const  void  *   name,   unsigned   int
       sizeof_name);


ARGUMENTS

       gnutls_x509_crt_t crt
                   a certificate of type gnutls_x509_crt_t

       const char * oid
                   holds an Object Identifier in a null terminated string

       unsigned int raw_flag
                   must be 0, or 1 if the data are DER encoded

       const void * name
                   a pointer to the name

       unsigned int sizeof_name
                   holds the size of  name


DESCRIPTION

       This function will set the part of the name of the Certificate subject,
       specified by the given OID. The input string should be ASCII  or  UTF-8
       encoded.

       Some helper macros with popular OIDs can be found in gnutls/x509.h With
       this function you can only set the known OIDs. You can test  for  known
       OIDs  using gnutls_x509_dn_oid_known(). For OIDs that are not known (by
       gnutls) you should properly DER encode your data, and call  this  func-
       tion with  raw_flag set.


RETURNS

       On  success,  GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS  (0)  is  returned, otherwise a negative
       error value.
