NAME
gnutls_x509_crq_set_dn_by_oid - This function will set the Certificate request subject’s distinguished name
SYNOPSIS
#include <gnutls/x509.h>
int gnutls_x509_crq_set_dn_by_oid(gnutls_x509_crq_t crq, const char * oid, unsigned int raw_flag, const void * data, unsigned int sizeof_data);
ARGUMENTS
| gnutls_x509_crq_t crq | should contain a gnutls_x509_crq_t structure |
| 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 * data | a pointer to the input data |
| unsigned int sizeof_data | holds the size of data |
DESCRIPTION
This function will set the part of the name of the Certificate request 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 function with raw_flag set.
RETURNS
On success, GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS is returned, otherwise a negative error value.
