13       sizeof_buf);
14

ARGUMENTS

16       gnutls_x509_crt_t cert
17                   should contain a gnutls_x509_crt_t structure
18

DESCRIPTION

25       This  function  will  copy  the name of the Certificate in the provided
26       buffer. The  name  will  be  in  the  form  "C=xxxx,O=yyyy,CN=zzzz"  as
27       described in RFC2253. The output string will be ASCII or UTF-8 encoded,
28       depending on the certificate data.

31
32       Returns GNUTLS_E_SHORT_MEMORY_BUFFER if the provided buffer is not long
33       enough,  and  in  that  case  the  *sizeof_buf will be updated with the
34       required size.  On success 0 is returned.
