SYNOPSIS

#include <gnutls/pkcs7.h>

int gnutls_pkcs7_verify(gnutls_pkcs7_t pkcs7, gnutls_x509_trust_list_t tl, gnutls_typed_vdata_st * vdata, unsigned int vdata_size, unsigned idx, const gnutls_datum_t * data, unsigned flags);

ARGUMENTS

gnutls_pkcs7_t pkcs7: should contain a gnutls_pkcs7_t type
gnutls_x509_trust_list_t tl: A list of trusted certificates
gnutls_typed_vdata_st * vdata: an array of typed data
unsigned int vdata_size: the number of data elements
unsigned idx: the index of the signature info to check
const gnutls_datum_t * data: The data to be verified or NULL
unsigned flags: Zero or an OR list of gnutls_certificate_verify_flags
