Should be treated as constant. .IP "unsigned int flags" 12 Use zero or \fBGNUTLS_TL_GET_COPY\fP .SH "DESCRIPTION" This function will return the issuer of a given certificate. If the flag \fBGNUTLS_TL_GET_COPY\fP is specified a copy of the issuer will be returned which must be freed using \fBgnutls_x509_crt_deinit()\fP. In that case the provided \fIissuer\fP must not be initialized. As with \fBgnutls_x509_trust_list_get_issuer()\fP this function requires the \fBGNUTLS_TL_GET_COPY\fP flag in order to operate with PKCS\fB11\fP trust lists in a thread\-safe way. .SH "RETURNS" On success, \fBGNUTLS_E_SUCCESS\fP (0) is returned, otherwise a negative error value. .SH "SINCE" 3.0 .SH "REPORTING BUGS" Report bugs to . .br Home page: https://www.gnutls.org .SH COPYRIGHT Copyright \(co 2001- Free Software Foundation, Inc., and others. .br Copying and distribution of this file, with or without modification, are permitted in any medium without royalty provided the copyright notice and this notice are preserved. .SH "SEE ALSO" The full documentation for .B gnutls is maintained as a Texinfo manual.
