gnutls_pkcs11_obj_get_pk_algorithm3

Arguments

gnutls_pkcs11_obj_t obj

The pkcs11 object

unsigned int * bits

Will hold the rsa/dsa bit count or the ecc curve This function given a pkcs11 object with privkey_type initialized, will return the algorithm type on success , and will store the number of bits if the algo type is GNUTLS_PK_RSA or GNUTLS_PK_DSA, or the curve if the algo type is GNUTLS_PK_ECDSA.

Overview

The return value needs to be checked to determine if bits represents the ecc curve or the number of bits.

Returns

The private key algorithm associated with the object on success or a an error code otherwise.
