11 void gnutls_certificate_client_set_retrieve_function(gnutls_certifi‐
12 cate_credentials_t cred, gnutls_certificate_client_retrieve_function *
13 func);
14
16 gnutls_certificate_credentials_t cred
17 is a gnutls_certificate_credentials_t structure.
18
19 gnutls_certificate_client_retrieve_function * func
20 is the callback function
21
23 This function sets a callback to be called in order to retrieve the
24 certificate to be used in the handshake. You are advised to use
25 gnutls_certificate_set_retrieve_function2() because it is much more
26 efficient in the processing it requires from gnutls.
27
28 The callback's function prototype is: int (*callback)(gnutls_session_t,
29 const gnutls_datum_t* req_ca_dn, int nreqs, const gnutls_pk_algo‐
30 rithm_t* pk_algos, int pk_algos_length, gnutls_retr_st* st);
31
32 req_ca_cert is only used in X.509 certificates. Contains a list with
33 the CA names that the server considers trusted. Normally we should
34 send a certificate that is signed by one of these CAs. These names are
35 DER encoded. To get a more meaningful value use the function
36 gnutls_x509_rdn_get().
37
38 pk_algos contains a list with server's acceptable signature algo‐
39 rithms. The certificate returned should support the server's given
40 algorithms.
41
42 st should contain the certificates and private keys.
43
44 If the callback function is provided then gnutls will call it, in the
45 handshake, if a certificate is requested by the server (and after the
46 certificate request message has been received).
47
48 The callback function should set the certificate list to be sent, and
49 return 0 on success. If no certificate was selected then the number of
50 certificates should be set to zero. The value (-1) indicates error and
51 the handshake will be terminated.
