NAME

gnutls_x509_crq_set_dn_by_oid − API function

SYNOPSIS

#include <gnutls/x509.h>

int gnutls_x509_crq_set_dn_by_oid(gnutls_x509_crq_t crq, const char * oid, unsigned int raw_flag, const void * data, unsigned int sizeof_data);

ARGUMENTS

gnutls_x509_crq_t crq

should contain a gnutls_x509_crq_t type

const char * oid

holds an Object Identifier in a (0)−terminated string

unsigned int raw_flag

must be 0, or 1 if the data are DER encoded

const void * data

a pointer to the input data

unsigned int sizeof_data

holds the size of data

DESCRIPTION

This function will set the part of the name of the Certificate request subject, specified by the given OID. The input string should be ASCII or UTF−8 encoded.

Some helper macros with popular OIDs can be found in gnutls/x509.h With this function you can only set the known OIDs. You can test for known OIDs using gnutls_x509_dn_oid_known(). For OIDs that are not known (by gnutls) you should properly DER encode your data, and call this function with raw_flag set.
