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: must be 0

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.
