NAME         top

       gnutls_load_file - API function

SYNOPSIS         top

       int gnutls_load_file(const char * filename, gnutls_datum_t *
       data);

ARGUMENTS         top

       const char * filename

       gnutls_datum_t * data
                   Where the file will be stored

DESCRIPTION         top

       This function will load a file into a datum. The data are zero
       terminated but the terminating null is not included in length.
       The returned data are allocated using gnutls_malloc().

       Note that this function is not designed for reading sensitive
       materials, such as private keys, on practical applications. When
       the reading fails in the middle, the partially loaded content
       might remain on memory.

RETURNS         top

       On success, GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS (0) is returned, otherwise an error
       code is returned.

       Since 3.1.0
