# gnutls\_pkcs12\_bag\_enc\_info(3)

API function

## NAME

gnutls\_pkcs12\_bag\_enc\_info - API function

## SYNOPSIS

**#include \<gnutls/pkcs12.h\>**

**int gnutls\_pkcs12\_bag\_enc\_info(gnutls\_pkcs12\_bag\_t** *bag***, unsigned int \*** *schema***, unsigned int \*** *cipher***, void \*** *salt***, unsigned int \*** *salt\_size***, unsigned int \*** *iter\_count***, char \*\*** *oid***);**

## ARGUMENTS

- gnutls\_pkcs12\_bag\_t bag

  The bag

- unsigned int \* schema

  indicate the schema as one of **gnutls\_pkcs\_encrypt\_flags\_t**

- unsigned int \* cipher

  the cipher used as **gnutls\_cipher\_algorithm\_t**

- void \* salt

  PBKDF2 salt (if non-NULL then  *salt\_size* initially holds its size)

- unsigned int \* salt\_size

  PBKDF2 salt size

- unsigned int \* iter\_count

  PBKDF2 iteration count

- char \*\* oid

  if non-NULL it will contain an allocated null-terminated variable with the OID

## DESCRIPTION

This function will provide information on the encryption algorithms used in an encrypted bag. If the structure algorithms are unknown the code **GNUTLS\_E\_UNKNOWN\_CIPHER\_TYPE** will be returned, and only  *oid* , will be set. That is,  *oid* will be set on encrypted bags whether supported or not. It must be deinitialized using **gnutls\_free()**. The other variables are only set on supported structures.

## RETURNS

**GNUTLS\_E\_INVALID\_REQUEST** if the provided bag isn't encrypted, **GNUTLS\_E\_UNKNOWN\_CIPHER\_TYPE** if the structure's encryption isn't supported, or another negative error code in case of a failure. Zero on success.
