Api function

Usage

#include <gnutls/gnutls.h>

void gnutls_session_set_verify_cert2(gnutls_session_t session, gnutls_typed_vdata_st * data, unsigned elements, unsigned flags);

Arguments

gnutls_session_t session

is a gnutls session

gnutls_typed_vdata_st * data

an array of typed data

unsigned elements

the number of data elements

unsigned flags

flags for certificate verification -- gnutls_certificate_verify_flags

Overview

This function instructs GnuTLS to verify the peer's certificate using the provided typed data information. If the verification fails the handshake will also fail with GNUTLS_E_CERTIFICATE_VERIFICATION_ERROR. In that case the verification result can be obtained using gnutls_session_get_verify_cert_status().

The acceptable typed data are the same as in gnutls_certificate_verify_peers(), and once set must remain valid for the lifetime of the session. More precisely they should be available during any subsequent handshakes.

If flags is provided which contain a profile, this function should be called after any session priority setting functions.
