## NAME

gnutls\_pcert\_import\_rawpk - API function

## SYNOPSIS

**#include \<gnutls/abstract.h\>**

## ARGUMENTS

This convenience function will import (i.e. convert) the given raw public key  *pubkey* into a **gnutls\_pcert\_st** structure. The structure must be deinitialized afterwards using **gnutls\_pcert\_deinit()**. The given  *pubkey* must not be deinitialized because it will be associated with the given  *pcert* structure and will be deinitialized with it.
