Name

gnutls_x509_crq_sign2 — This function will sign a Certificate request with a key

Synopsis

#include <gnutls/x509.h>
int gnutls_x509_crq_sign2( gnutls_x509_crq_t   crq,
  gnutls_x509_privkey_t   key,
  gnutls_digest_algorithm_t   dig,
  unsigned int   flags);

ARGUMENTS

gnutls_x509_crq_t crq

should contain a gnutls_x509_crq_t structure

gnutls_x509_privkey_t key

holds a private key

gnutls_digest_algorithm_t dig

The message digest to use. GNUTLS_DIG_SHA1 is the safe choice unless you know what you're doing.

unsigned int flags

must be 0

DESCRIPTION

This function will sign the certificate request with a private key. This must be the same key as the one used in gnutls_x509_crt_set_key() since a certificate request is self signed.

This must be the last step in a certificate request generation since all the previously set parameters are now signed.

Returns 0 on success.
