GLOBUS_GSI_CERT_UTILS_CONSTANTS(3)

💖 NAME 💖

globus_gsi_cert_utils_constants — Cert Utils Constants ✨

okay bestie, this one's literally just the constants page, and yeah it's giving "boring enum dump" energy but it's actually the whole vibe of globus_gsi_cert_utils. This is from the Library Functions Manual for globus_gsi...s_constants(3), and we're gonna walk it together, no cap 💅

• Cert Utils Constants.

🦋 DETAILED DESCRIPTION 🦋

Cert Utils Constants. that's it, that's the whole description, they really said "keep it brief" 🙈

🎀 TYPEDEF DOCUMENTATION 🎀

typedef enum globus_gsi_cert_utils_cert_type_e globus_gsi_cert_utils_cert_type_t

Certificate Types. 💖

so these certificate types are the little labels that describe some properties of a certificate AND tell the proxy core code what kind of proxy it should generate. two jobs, main character energy honestly 👑

There are two non-proxy types of certificates that Globus understands: EEC (End-Entity Certificate) and CA (Certificate Authority Certificates). then there are three proxy formats: GSI 2 "legacy" proxies, GSI 3 "Draft" proxies, and RFC 3820-compliant proxies. and then four types of proxy: limited, impersonation "full", restricted, and independent. 🫶

heads up bestie: the latter two types (restricted and independent) are not expressible in the GSI 2 format. so like, don't try it. fr fr.

On top of the enumerations for the concrete renderings of certificate format + type combined, there are also default, formats-without-types and types-without-formats, so that application logic using the proxy library can request default proxy formats that are compatible with the issuing certificate. it's giving "flexible, adaptable, iconic" ✨

🌸 ENUMERATION TYPE DOCUMENTATION 🌸

enum globus_gsi_cert_utils_cert_type_e

Certificate Types. 💖

again for the people in the back: these certificate types describe some properties of a certificate and specify what type of proxy should be generated in the proxy core code. two non-proxy types understood by Globus: EEC (End-Entity Certificate) and CA (Certificate Authority Certificates). three proxy formats: GSI 2 "legacy" proxies, GSI 3 "Draft" proxies, and RFC 3820-compliant proxies. four types of proxy: limited, impersonation "full", restricted, and independent. and the last two are not expressible in the GSI 2 format, periodt.

Plus the default / formats-without-types / types-without-formats situation so app logic using the proxy library can request default proxy formats compatible with the issuing certificate 🌈
