globus_gsi_proxy_handle_attrs (3)

Handle attributes are used to control additional features of the GSI Proxy handle. These features are operation independent.

Currently there are no attributes.

typedef struct globus_l_gsi_proxy_handle_attrs_s* \fBglobus_gsi_proxy_handle_attrs_t\fP

Handle Attributes.

A GSI Proxy handle attributes type is used to associate immutable parameter values with a Handle Management handle. A handle attributes object should be created with immutable parameters and then passed to the proxy handle init function globus_gsi_proxy_handle_init().

globus_result_t globus_gsi_proxy_handle_attrs_copy (\fBglobus_gsi_proxy_handle_attrs_t\fPa, \fBglobus_gsi_proxy_handle_attrs_t\fP *b)

Copy Attributes. Make a copy of GSI Proxy handle attributes

Parameters:

a The handle attributes to copy

b The copy

Returns:

GLOBUS_SUCCESS

globus_result_t globus_gsi_proxy_handle_attrs_destroy (\fBglobus_gsi_proxy_handle_attrs_t\fPhandle_attrs)

Destroy attributes. Destroy the GSI Proxy handle attributes

Parameters:

handle_attrs The handle attributes to be destroyed.

Returns:

GLOBUS_SUCCESS

globus_result_t globus_gsi_proxy_handle_attrs_get_clock_skew_allowable (\fBglobus_gsi_proxy_handle_attrs_t\fPhandle_attrs, int *skew)

Get Clock Skew Allowable. Get the allowable clock skew for the proxy certificate

Parameters:

handle_attrs The handle_attrs to get the clock skew from

skew The allowable clock skew (in seconds) to get from the proxy certificate request. This value gets set by the function, so it needs to be a pointer.

Returns:

GLOBUS_SUCCESS if the handle_attrs is valid, otherwise an error is returned

globus_result_t globus_gsi_proxy_handle_attrs_get_init_prime (\fBglobus_gsi_proxy_handle_attrs_t\fPhandle_attrs, int *prime)

Get Initial Prime Number. Get the initial prime number used for generating the public key pair in the RSA algorithm

Parameters:

handle_attrs The attributes to get the initial prime number from

prime The initial prime number taken from the attributes

Returns:

GLOBUS_SUCCESS

globus_result_t globus_gsi_proxy_handle_attrs_get_key_gen_callback (\fBglobus_gsi_proxy_handle_attrs_t\fPhandle_attrs, void(**)(int, int, void *)callback)

Get Key Gen Callback. Get the public/private key generation callback that provides status during the generation of the keys

Parameters:

handle_attrs The handle_attrs to get the callback from

callback The callback from the handle attributes

Returns:

GLOBUS_SUCCESS if the handle_attrs is valid, otherwise an error is returned

globus_result_t globus_gsi_proxy_handle_attrs_get_keybits (\fBglobus_gsi_proxy_handle_attrs_t\fPhandle_attrs, int *bits)

Get Key Bits. Gets the length of the public key pair used by the proxy certificate

Parameters:

handle_attrs the attributes to get the key length from

bits the length of the key pair in bits

Returns:

GLOBUS_SUCCESS

globus_result_t globus_gsi_proxy_handle_attrs_get_signing_algorithm (\fBglobus_gsi_proxy_handle_attrs_t\fPhandle_attrs, EVP_MD **algorithm)

Get Signing Algorithm. Gets the Signing Algorithm to used to sign the certificate request. In most cases, the signing party will ignore this value, and sign with an algorithm of its choice.

Parameters:

handle_attrs The proxy handle_attrs to get the signing algorithm of

algorithm Parameter used to return the signing algorithm used

Returns:

Returns GLOBUS_SUCCESS if the handle is valid, otherwise an error object is returned.

globus_result_t globus_gsi_proxy_handle_attrs_init (\fBglobus_gsi_proxy_handle_attrs_t\fP *handle_attrs)

Initialize Attributes. Initialize GSI Proxy Handle Attributes.

Initialize proxy handle attributes, which can (and should) be associated with a proxy handle. For most purposes, these attributes should primarily be used by the proxy handle.

Currently, no attribute values are initialized.

Parameters:

handle_attrs The handle attributes structure to be initialized

Returns:

GLOBUS_SUCCESS unless an error occurred, in which case, a globus error object ID is returned

globus_gsi_proxy_handle_attrs_destroy()

globus_result_t globus_gsi_proxy_handle_attrs_set_clock_skew_allowable (\fBglobus_gsi_proxy_handle_attrs_t\fPhandle_attrs, intskew)

Set Clock Skew Allowable. Sets the clock skew in minutes of the proxy cert request so that time differences between hosts won't cause problems. This value defaults to 5 minutes.

Parameters:

handle_attrs the handle_attrs containing the clock skew to be set

skew the amount to skew by (in seconds)

Returns:

GLOBUS_SUCCESS if the handle_attrs is valid - otherwise an error is returned.

globus_result_t globus_gsi_proxy_handle_attrs_set_init_prime (\fBglobus_gsi_proxy_handle_attrs_t\fPhandle_attrs, intprime)

Set Initial Prime Number. Set the initial prime number used for generating public key pairs in the RSA algorithm

Parameters:

handle_attrs The attributes to set

prime The prime number to set it to This value needs to be a prime number

Returns:

GLOBUS_SUCCESS

globus_result_t globus_gsi_proxy_handle_attrs_set_key_gen_callback (\fBglobus_gsi_proxy_handle_attrs_t\fPhandle_attrs, void(*)(int, int, void *)callback)

Set Key Gen Callback. Set the public/private key generation callback that provides status during the generation of the keys

Parameters:

handle_attrs The handle_attrs to get the callback from

callback The callback from the handle attributes

Returns:

GLOBUS_SUCCESS if the handle_attrs is valid, otherwise an error is returned

globus_result_t globus_gsi_proxy_handle_attrs_set_keybits (\fBglobus_gsi_proxy_handle_attrs_t\fPhandle_attrs, intbits)

Set Key Bits. Set the length of the public key pair used by the proxy certificate

Parameters:

handle_attrs the attributes to set

bits the length to set it to (usually 1024)

Returns:

GLOBUS_SUCCESS

globus_result_t globus_gsi_proxy_handle_attrs_set_signing_algorithm (\fBglobus_gsi_proxy_handle_attrs_t\fPhandle_attrs, EVP_MD *algorithm)

Set Signing Algorithm. Sets the Signing Algorithm to be used to sign the certificate request. In most cases, the signing party will ignore this value, and sign with an algorithm of its choice.

Parameters:

handle_attrs The proxy handle to set the signing algorithm of

algorithm The signing algorithm to set

Returns:

Returns GLOBUS_SUCCESS if the handle is valid, otherwise an error object is returned.
