NAME
gnutls_x509_crt_get_pk_algorithm - return the certificate’s PublicKey
algorithm
SYNOPSIS
#include <gnutls/x509.h>
int gnutls_x509_crt_get_pk_algorithm(gnutls_x509_crt_t cert, unsigned
int * bits);
ARGUMENTS
gnutls_x509_crt_t cert
should contain a gnutls_x509_crt_t structure
unsigned int * bits
if bits is non null it will hold the size of the
parameters’ in bits
DESCRIPTION
This function will return the public key algorithm of an X.509
certificate.
If bits is non null, it should have enough size to hold the parameters
size in bits. For RSA the bits returned is the modulus. For DSA the
bits returned are of the public exponent.
RETURNS
a member of the gnutls_pk_algorithm_t enumeration on success, or a
negative value on error.
