NAME

       gnutls_x509_crq_get_dn  - This function returns the Certificate request
       subject’s distinguished name

SYNOPSIS

       #include <gnutls/x509.h>

       int gnutls_x509_crq_get_dn(gnutls_x509_crq_t crq, char * buf, size_t  *
       sizeof_buf);

ARGUMENTS

       gnutls_x509_crq_t crq
                   should contain a gnutls_x509_crq_t structure

       char * buf  a pointer to a structure to hold the name (may be null)

       size_t * sizeof_buf
                   initially holds the size of buf

DESCRIPTION

       This  function will copy the name of the Certificate request subject in
       the   provided   buffer.   The   name   will    be    in    the    form
       "C=xxxx,O=yyyy,CN=zzzz" as described in RFC2253. 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.

RETURNS

       GNUTLS_E_SHORT_MEMORY_BUFFER if the provided buffer is not long enough,
       and  in  that  case  the  *sizeof_buf will be updated with the required
       size.  On success 0 is returned.
