NAME

       gnutls_x509_crt_set_serial - API function

SYNOPSIS

       #include <gnutls/x509.h>

       int   gnutls_x509_crt_set_serial(gnutls_x509_crt_t  cert,  const  void  *  serial,  size_t
       serial_size);

ARGUMENTS

       gnutls_x509_crt_t cert
                   a certificate of type gnutls_x509_crt_t

       const void * serial
                   The serial number

       size_t serial_size
                   Holds the size of the serial field.

DESCRIPTION

       This function will set the X.509 certificate's serial number.  While the serial number  is
       an  integer,  it  is often handled as an opaque field by several CAs. For this reason this
       function accepts any kind of data as a serial number. To be consistent with the X.509/PKIX
       specifications  the  provided   serial  should  be a big-endian positive number (i.e. it's
       leftmost bit should be zero).

RETURNS

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