NAME         top

       gnutls_x509_crt_get_preferred_hash_algorithm - API function

SYNOPSIS         top

       #include <gnutls/compat.h>

       int
       gnutls_x509_crt_get_preferred_hash_algorithm(gnutls_x509_crt_t
       crt, gnutls_digest_algorithm_t * hash, unsigned int * mand);

ARGUMENTS         top

       gnutls_x509_crt_t crt
                   Holds the certificate

       gnutls_digest_algorithm_t * hash
                   The result of the call with the hash algorithm used
                   for signature

       unsigned int * mand
                   If non-zero it means that the algorithm MUST use this
                   hash. May be NULL.

DESCRIPTION         top

       This function will read the certificate and return the
       appropriate digest algorithm to use for signing with this
       certificate. Some certificates (i.e.  DSA might not be able to
       sign without the preferred algorithm).

DEPRECATED         top

       Please use gnutls_pubkey_get_preferred_hash_algorithm().

RETURNS         top

       the 0 if the hash algorithm is found. A negative error code is
       returned on error.

SINCE         top

       2.12.0
