NAME
gnutls_x509_crq_sign2 - API function
SYNOPSIS
#include <gnutls/x509.h>
int gnutls_x509_crq_sign2(gnutls_x509_crq_t crq,
gnutls_x509_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_x509_privkey_t key
holds a private key
gnutls_digest_algorithm_t dig
The message digest to use, i.e., GNUTLS_DIG_SHA256
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 exported 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()).
