22 This function returns the type of the certificate that a side is nego‐
23 tiated to use. The certificate type is by default X.509, unless an
24 alternative certificate type is enabled by gnutls_init() and negotiated
25 during the session.
26
27 The target parameter specifies whether to request the negotiated cer‐
28 tificate type for the client (GNUTLS_CTYPE_CLIENT), or for the server
29 (GNUTLS_CTYPE_SERVER). Additionally, in P2P mode connection set up
30 where you don't know in advance who will be client and who will be
31 server you can use the flag (GNUTLS_CTYPE_OURS) and
32 (GNUTLS_CTYPE_PEERS) to retrieve the corresponding certificate types.
33
34 Resumed sessions will return the certificate type that was negotiated
35 and used in the original session. That is, this function can be used to
36 reliably determine the type of the certificate returned by gnutls_cer‐
37 tificate_get_peers().
