NAME         top

       gnutls_pkcs7_verify - API function

SYNOPSIS         top

       #include <gnutls/pkcs7.h>
       int gnutls_pkcs7_verify(gnutls_pkcs7_t pkcs7,
       gnutls_x509_trust_list_t tl, gnutls_typed_vdata_st * vdata, unsigned
       int vdata_size, unsigned idx, const gnutls_datum_t * data, unsigned
       flags);

ARGUMENTS         top

       gnutls_pkcs7_t pkcs7
                   should contain a gnutls_pkcs7_t type
       gnutls_x509_trust_list_t tl
                   A list of trusted certificates
       gnutls_typed_vdata_st * vdata
                   an array of typed data
       unsigned int vdata_size
                   the number of data elements
       unsigned idx
                   the index of the signature info to check
       const gnutls_datum_t * data
                   The data to be verified or NULL
       unsigned flags
                   Zero or an OR list of gnutls_certificate_verify_flags

DESCRIPTION         top

       This function will verify the provided data against the signature
       present in the SignedData of the PKCS 7 structure. If the data
       provided are NULL then the data in the encapsulatedContent field will
       be used instead.

RETURNS         top

       On success, GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS (0) is returned, otherwise a negative
       error value. A verification error results to a
       GNUTLS_E_PK_SIG_VERIFY_FAILED and the lack of encapsulated data to
       verify to a GNUTLS_E_REQUESTED_DATA_NOT_AVAILABLE.
