.SH "DESCRIPTION"
This function returns the type of the certificate that is negotiated
for this side to send to the peer. The certificate type is by default

\fBgnutls_init()\fP and negotiated during the session.

Resumed sessions will return the certificate type that was negotiated
and used in the original session.

\fBgnutls_certificate_type_get2()\fP which is more fine\-grained.
