NAME

gnutls_x509_privkey_import2 - API function

SYNOPSIS

#include <gnutls/x509.h>

int gnutls_x509_privkey_import2(gnutls_x509_privkey_t key, const gnutls_datum_t * data, gnutls_x509_crt_fmt_t format, const char * password, unsigned int flags);

ARGUMENTS

gnutls_x509_privkey_t key: The data to store the parsed key
const gnutls_datum_t * data: The DER or PEM encoded key.
gnutls_x509_crt_fmt_t format: One of DER or PEM
const char * password: A password (optional)
unsigned int flags: an ORed sequence of gnutls_pkcs_encrypt_flags_t

DESCRIPTION

This function will import the given DER or PEM encoded key, to the native gnutls_x509_privkey_t format, irrespective of the input format. The input format is auto-detected.

The supported formats are basic unencrypted key, PKCS8, PKCS12, and the openssl format.

If the provided key is encrypted but no password was given, then GNUTLS_E_DECRYPTION_FAILED is returned. Since GnuTLS 3.4.0 this function will utilize the PIN callbacks if any.

RETURNS

On success, GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS (0) is returned, otherwise a negative error value.
