gnutls_x509_crt_get_dn_by_oid(3)    gnutls    gnutls_x509_crt_get_dn_by_oid(3)

NAME
       gnutls_x509_crt_get_dn_by_oid - This function returns the Certificate's
       distinguished name

SYNOPSIS
       #include <gnutls/x509.h>

       int gnutls_x509_crt_get_dn_by_oid(gnutls_x509_crt_t cert, const char  *
       oid, int indx, unsigned int raw_flag, void * buf, size_t * sizeof_buf);

ARGUMENTS
       gnutls_x509_crt_t cert
		   should contain a gnutls_x509_crt_t structure

       const char * oid
		   holds an Object Identified in null terminated string

       int indx	   In case multiple same OIDs exist in the RDN, this specifies
		   which to send. Use zero to get the first one.

       unsigned int raw_flag
		   If non zero returns the raw DER data of the DN part.

       void * buf  a pointer where the DN part will be copied (may be null).

       size_t * sizeof_buf
		   initially holds the size of buf

DESCRIPTION
       This function will extract the part of the name of the Certificate sub‐
       ject  specified	by  the	 given OID. The output, if the raw flag is not
       used, will be encoded as described in RFC2253. Thus a  string  that  is
       ASCII or UTF-8 encoded, depending on the certificate data.

       Some  helper  macros with popular OIDs can be found in gnutls/x509.h If
       raw flag is zero, this function will only return known  OIDs  as	 text.
       Other  OIDs will be DER encoded, as described in RFC2253 -- in hex for‐
       mat with a 'using gnutls_x509_dn_oid_known().

       If buf is null then only the size will be filled.

       Returns GNUTLS_E_SHORT_MEMORY_BUFFER if the provided buffer is not long
       enough,	and  in	 that  case  the  *sizeof_buf will be updated with the
       required size.  On success 0 is returned.
