gnutls_x509_privkey_export2_pkcs8(3) gnutls gnutls_x509_privkey_export2_pkcs8(3)

NAME
     gnutls_x509_privkey_export2_pkcs8 - API function

SYNOPSIS
     #include <gnutls/x509.h>

     int       gnutls_x509_privkey_export2_pkcs8(gnutls_x509_privkey_t	    key,
     gnutls_x509_crt_fmt_t format, const char * password,  unsigned  int  flags,
     gnutls_datum_t * out);

ARGUMENTS
     gnutls_x509_privkey_t key
		 Holds the key

     gnutls_x509_crt_fmt_t format
		 the format of output params. One of PEM or DER.

     const char * password
		 the password that will be used to encrypt the key.

     unsigned int flags
		 an ORed sequence of gnutls_pkcs_encrypt_flags_t

     gnutls_datum_t * out
		 will contain a private key PEM or DER encoded

DESCRIPTION
     This  function  will export the private key to a PKCS8 structure.	Both RSA
     and DSA keys can be exported. For DSA keys we use PKCS 11	definitions.  If
     the  flags  do  not  specify  the	encryption cipher, then the default 3DES
     (PBES2) will be used.

     The  password can be either ASCII or UTF-8 in the default PBES2  encryption
     schemas, or ASCII for the PKCS12 schemas.

     The output buffer is allocated using gnutls_malloc().

     If  the structure is PEM encoded, it will have a header of "BEGIN ENCRYPTED
     PRIVATE KEY" or "BEGIN PRIVATE KEY" if encryption is not used.

RETURNS
     In case of failure a negative error code will be returned, and  0	on  suc-
     cess.

     Since 3.1.3
