NAME

       gnutls_x509_crt_set_dn - API function

SYNOPSIS

       #include <gnutls/x509.h>

       int gnutls_x509_crt_set_dn(gnutls_x509_crt_t crt, const char * dn, const char ** err);

ARGUMENTS

       gnutls_x509_crt_t crt
                   a certificate of type gnutls_x509_crt_t

       const char * dn
                   a comma separated DN string (RFC4514)

       const char ** err
                   indicates the error position (if any)

DESCRIPTION

       This  function  will  set  the DN on the provided certificate.  The input string should be
       plain ASCII or UTF-8 encoded. On DN parsing error GNUTLS_E_PARSING_ERROR is returned.

       Note that DNs are not expected to  hold  DNS  information,  and  thus  no  automatic  IDNA
       conversions  are  attempted  when using this function.  If that is required (e.g., store a
       domain in CN), process the corresponding input with gnutls_idna_map().

RETURNS

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