gnutls_certificate_type_get(3)   gnutls   gnutls_certificate_type_get(3)

NAME         top

       gnutls_certificate_type_get - API function

SYNOPSIS         top

       #include <gnutls/gnutls.h>

       gnutls_certificate_type_t
       gnutls_certificate_type_get(gnutls_session_t session);

ARGUMENTS         top

       gnutls_session_t session
                   is a gnutls_session_t type.

DESCRIPTION         top

       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 X.509, unless an alternative certificate type
       is enabled by gnutls_init() and negotiated during the session.

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

       As of version 3.6.4 it is recommended to use
       gnutls_certificate_type_get2() which is more fine-grained.

RETURNS         top

       the currently used gnutls_certificate_type_t certificate type as
       negotiated for 'our' side of the connection.
