gnutls_x509_crq_privkey_sign(3)      gnutls	 gnutls_x509_crq_privkey_sign(3)

NAME
     gnutls_x509_crq_privkey_sign - API function

SYNOPSIS
     #include <gnutls/abstract.h>

     int  gnutls_x509_crq_privkey_sign(gnutls_x509_crq_t  crq,	gnutls_privkey_t
     key, gnutls_digest_algorithm_t dig, unsigned int flags);

ARGUMENTS
     gnutls_x509_crq_t crq
		 should contain a gnutls_x509_crq_t type

     gnutls_privkey_t key
		 holds a private key

     gnutls_digest_algorithm_t dig
		 The message digest to use, i.e., GNUTLS_DIG_SHA1

     unsigned int flags
		 must be 0

DESCRIPTION
     This function will sign the certificate request with a private  key.   This
     must  be  the same key as the one used in gnutls_x509_crt_set_key() since a
     certificate request is self signed.

     This must be the last step in a certificate request  generation  since  all
     the previously set parameters are now signed.

     A	known  limitation  of this function is, that a newly-signed request will
     not be fully functional (e.g., for signature verification), until it is ex-
     ported an re-imported.

     After GnuTLS 3.6.1 the value of  dig may be GNUTLS_DIG_UNKNOWN, and in that
     case, a suitable but reasonable for the key algorithm will be selected.

RETURNS
     GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS	on   success,	otherwise   a	negative   error   code.
     GNUTLS_E_ASN1_VALUE_NOT_FOUND is returned if you didn't set all information
     in     the     certificate     request    (e.g.,	 the	version    using
     gnutls_x509_crq_set_version()).

SINCE
     2.12.0
