NAME         top

       gnutls_x509_privkey_export - API function

SYNOPSIS         top

       #include <gnutls/x509.h>
       int gnutls_x509_privkey_export(gnutls_x509_privkey_t key,
       gnutls_x509_crt_fmt_t format, void * output_data, size_t *
       output_data_size);

ARGUMENTS         top

       gnutls_x509_privkey_t key
                   Holds the key
       gnutls_x509_crt_fmt_t format
                   the format of output params. One of PEM or DER.
       void * output_data
                   will contain a private key PEM or DER encoded
       size_t * output_data_size
                   holds the size of output_data (and will be replaced by
                   the actual size of parameters)

DESCRIPTION         top

       This function will export the private key to a PKCS1 structure for
       RSA keys, or an integer sequence for DSA keys.  The DSA keys are in
       the same format with the parameters used by openssl.
       If the buffer provided is not long enough to hold the output, then *
       output_data_size is updated and GNUTLS_E_SHORT_MEMORY_BUFFER will be
       returned.
       If the structure is PEM encoded, it will have a header of "BEGIN RSA
       PRIVATE KEY".

RETURNS         top

       On success, GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS (0) is returned, otherwise a negative
       error value.
