The structure to store the parsed key
The DER or PEM encoded key.
One of DER or PEM
the password to decrypt the key (if it is encrypted).
0 if encrypted or GNUTLS_PKCS_PLAIN if not encrypted.
This function will convert the given DER or PEM encoded
PKCS8 2.0 encrypted key to the native gnutls_x509_privkey_t
format. The output will be stored in key. Both RSA and DSA keys can
be imported, and flags can only be used to indicate an
unencrypted key.
The password can
be either ASCII or UTF−8 in the default PBES2
encryption schemas, or ASCII for the PKCS12 schemas.
If the Certificate is PEM encoded it should have a header of "ENCRYPTED PRIVATE KEY", or "PRIVATE KEY". You only need to specify the flags if the key is DER encoded, since in that case the encryption status cannot be auto−detected.
Returns 0 on success.
