gnutls_x509_crt...ame_constraints(3) gnutls gnutls_x509_crt...ame_constraints(3)

NAME
     gnutls_x509_crt_get_name_constraints - API function

SYNOPSIS
     #include <gnutls/x509.h>

     int       gnutls_x509_crt_get_name_constraints(gnutls_x509_crt_t	    crt,
     gnutls_x509_name_constraints_t nc, unsigned int flags, unsigned int * crit-
     ical);

ARGUMENTS
     gnutls_x509_crt_t crt
		 should contain a gnutls_x509_crt_t type

     gnutls_x509_name_constraints_t nc
		 The nameconstraints intermediate type

     unsigned int flags
		 zero or GNUTLS_EXT_FLAG_APPEND

     unsigned int * critical
		 the extension status

DESCRIPTION
     This function will return an intermediate type  containing  the  name  con-
     straints of the provided CA certificate. That structure can be used in com-
     bination  with  gnutls_x509_name_constraints_check()  to  verify  whether a
     server's name is in accordance with the constraints.

     When the  flags is set to GNUTLS_EXT_FLAG_APPEND, then if the  nc structure
     is empty this function will behave identically as if the flag was not  set.
     Otherwise	if  there are elements in the  nc structure then the constraints
     will be merged with the existing constraints following RFC5280 p6.1.4  (ex-
     cluded constraints will be appended, permitted will be intersected).

     Note that	nc must be initialized prior to calling this function.

RETURNS
     On    success,    GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS    (0)	  is	returned,   GNUTLS_E_RE-
     QUESTED_DATA_NOT_AVAILABLE if the extension is  not  present,  otherwise  a
     negative error value.

SINCE
     3.3.0
