NAME

       gnutls_x509_crq_get_extension_by_oid - get the specified extension

SYNOPSIS

       #include <gnutls/x509.h>

       int  gnutls_x509_crq_get_extension_by_oid(gnutls_x509_crq_t cert, const
       char * oid, int indx, void * buf, size_t * sizeof_buf, unsigned  int  *
       critical);

ARGUMENTS

       gnutls_x509_crq_t cert
                   should contain a gnutls_x509_crq_t structure

       const char * oid
                   holds an Object Identified in null terminated string

       int indx    In  case  multiple  same OIDs exist in the extensions, this
                   specifies which to send. Use zero to get the first one.

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

       size_t * sizeof_buf
                   initially holds the size of buf

       unsigned int * critical
                   will be non zero if the extension is marked as critical

DESCRIPTION

       This function will return the extension specified by  the  OID  in  the
       certificate.   The  extensions  will  be  returned  as  binary data DER
       encoded, in the provided buffer.

RETURNS

       On success, GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS is returned, otherwise a negative value in
       case  of  an  error.  If the certificate does not contain the specified
       extension GNUTLS_E_REQUESTED_DATA_NOT_AVAILABLE will be returned.

SINCE

       2.8.0
