NAME
gnutls_x509_privkey_sign_hash - API function
SYNOPSIS
#include <gnutls/compat.h>
int gnutls_x509_privkey_sign_hash(gnutls_x509_privkey_t key,
const gnutls_datum_t * hash, gnutls_datum_t * signature);
ARGUMENTS
gnutls_x509_privkey_t key
a key
const gnutls_datum_t * hash
holds the data to be signed
gnutls_datum_t * signature
will contain newly allocated signature
DESCRIPTION
This function will sign the given hash using the private key. Do
not use this function directly unless you know what it is.
Typical signing requires the data to be hashed and stored in
special formats (e.g. BER Digest-Info for RSA).
This API is provided only for backwards compatibility, and thus
restricted to RSA, DSA and ECDSA key types. For other key types
please use gnutls_privkey_sign_hash() and
gnutls_privkey_sign_data().
RETURNS
On success, GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS (0) is returned, otherwise a
negative error value.
Deprecated in: 2.12.0
