NAME
gnutls_x509_privkey_export_pkcs8 - API function
SYNOPSIS
#include <gnutls/x509.h>
gnutls_x509_privkey_export_pkcs8(3) key,
gnutls_x509_crt_fmt_t format, const char * password, unsigned int
flags, void * output_data, size_t * output_data_size);
ARGUMENTS
gnutls_x509_privkey_t key
Holds the key
gnutls_x509_crt_fmt_t format
the format of output params. One of PEM or DER.
const char * password
the password that will be used to encrypt the key.
unsigned int flags
an ORed sequence of gnutls_pkcs_encrypt_flags_t
void * output_data
will contain a private key PEM or DER encoded
size_t * output_data_size
holds the size of output_data (and will be replaced by the
actual size of parameters)
DESCRIPTION
This function will export the private key to a PKCS8 structure. Both
RSA and DSA keys can be exported. For DSA keys we use PKCS 11 defini-
tions. If the flags do not specify the encryption cipher, then the
default 3DES (PBES2) will be used.
The password can be either ASCII or UTF-8 in the default PBES2 encryp-
tion schemas, or ASCII for the PKCS12 schemas.
If the buffer provided is not long enough to hold the output, then
*output_data_size is updated and GNUTLS_E_SHORT_MEMORY_BUFFER will be
returned.
If the structure is PEM encoded, it will have a header of "BEGIN
ENCRYPTED PRIVATE KEY" or "BEGIN PRIVATE KEY" if encryption is not
used.
RETURNS
In case of failure a negative error code will be returned, and 0 on
success.
