SYNOPSIS

#include <gnutls/x509.h>

int gnutls_x509_crt_list_import(gnutls_x509_crt_t * certs, unsigned int * cert_max, const gnutls_datum_t * data, gnutls_x509_crt_fmt_t format, unsigned int flags);

ARGUMENTS

gnutls_x509_crt_t * certs
The structures to store the parsed certificate. Must not be initialized.
unsigned int * cert_max
Initially must hold the maximum number of certs. It will be updated with the number of certs available.
const gnutls_datum_t * data
The PEM encoded certificate.
gnutls_x509_crt_fmt_t format
One of DER or PEM.
unsigned int flags
must be (0) or an OR'd sequence of gnutls_certificate_import_flags.

DESCRIPTION

This function will convert the given PEM encoded certificate list to the native gnutls_x509_crt_t format. The output will be stored in certs . They will be automatically initialized.

The flag GNUTLS_X509_CRT_LIST_IMPORT_FAIL_IF_EXCEED will cause import to fail if the certificates in the provided buffer are more than the available structures. The GNUTLS_X509_CRT_LIST_FAIL_IF_UNSORTED flag will cause the function to fail if the provided list is not sorted from subject to issuer.

If the Certificate is PEM encoded it should have a header of "X509 CERTIFICATE", or "CERTIFICATE".

RETURNS

the number of certificates read or a negative error value.
