NAME

gnutls_cipher_suite_info - API function

SYNOPSIS

#include <gnutls/gnutls.h>

const char * gnutls_cipher_suite_info(size_t idx, char * cs_id, gnutls_kx_algorithm_t * kx, gnutls_cipher_algorithm_t * cipher, gnutls_mac_algorithm_t * mac, gnutls_protocol_t * version);

ARGUMENTS

size_t idx: index of cipher suite to get information about, starts on 0.
char * cs_id: output buffer with room for 2 bytes, indicating cipher suite value
gnutls_kx_algorithm_t * kx: output variable indicating key exchange algorithm, or NULL.
gnutls_cipher_algorithm_t * cipher: output variable indicating cipher, or NULL.
gnutls_mac_algorithm_t * mac: output variable indicating MAC algorithm, or NULL.
gnutls_protocol_t * version: output variable indicating TLS protocol version, or NULL.

DESCRIPTION

Get information about supported cipher suites. Use the function iteratively to get information about all supported cipher suites. Call with idx=0 to get information about first cipher suite, then idx=1 and so on until the function returns NULL.

RETURNS

the name of idx cipher suite, and set the information about the cipher suite in the output variables. If idx is out of bounds, NULL is returned.
