NAME
       gnutls_x509_crt_get_basic_constraints - API function

SYNOPSIS
       #include	<gnutls/x509.h>

       int  gnutls_x509_crt_get_basic_constraints(gnutls_x509_crt_t  cert, un-
       signed int * critical, unsigned int * ca, int * pathlen);

ARGUMENTS
       gnutls_x509_crt_t cert
		   should contain a gnutls_x509_crt_t type

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

       unsigned	int * ca
		   pointer to output integer  indicating  CA  status,  may  be
		   NULL,  value	is 1 if	the certificate	CA flag	is set,	0 oth-
		   erwise.

       int * pathlen
		   pointer to output integer indicating	path  length  (may  be
		   NULL), non-negative error codes indicate a present pathLen-
		   Constraint field and	the actual value, -1 indicate that the
		   field is absent.

DESCRIPTION
       This function will read the certificate's basic constraints, and	return
       the certificates	CA status.  It reads the basicConstraints X.509	exten-
       sion (2.5.29.19).

RETURNS
       If the certificate is a CA a positive value will	be returned, or	(0) if
       the  certificate	 does not have CA flag set.  A negative	error code may
       be returned in case of errors.  If the certificate does not contain the
       basicConstraints	extension  GNUTLS_E_REQUESTED_DATA_NOT_AVAILABLE  will
       be returned.
