NAME

gnutls_x509_crl_sign2 - This function will sign a CRL with a key  

SYNOPSIS

#include <gnutls/x509.h>

int gnutls_x509_crl_sign2(gnutls_x509_crl_t crl, gnutls_x509_crt_t issuer, gnutls_x509_privkey_t issuer_key, gnutls_digest_algorithm_t dig, unsigned int flags);  

ARGUMENTS

gnutls_x509_crl_t crl
should contain a gnutls_x509_crl_t structure
gnutls_x509_crt_t issuer
is the certificate of the certificate issuer
gnutls_x509_privkey_t issuer_key
holds the issuer's private key
gnutls_digest_algorithm_t dig
The message digest to use. GNUTLS_DIG_SHA1 is the safe choice unless you know what you're doing.
unsigned int flags

DESCRIPTION

This function will sign the CRL with the issuer's private key, and will copy the issuer's information into the CRL.

This must be the last step in a certificate CRL since all the previously set parameters are now signed.  

RETURNS

On success, GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS is returned, otherwise a negative error value.
