✨ NAME ✨

gnutls_certificate_client_get_request_status — an API function, bestie 💅 (from the gnutls manual, obviously)

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <gnutls/gnutls.h>

unsigned gnutls_certificate_client_get_request_status(gnutls_session_t
session);

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • gnutls_session_t session — is a gnutls session. that's it. that's the whole argument. one (1) session, she's the main character 🫶

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so. you know how sometimes a server is like "hey bestie, prove who you are" and sometimes it's like "nah we're good"? this function is the vibe check for that. 💖

Get whether client certificate was requested on the last handshake or not. last handshake — past tense, no cap, it's not looking into the future, it's reporting on what already went down. 🔥

⭐ RETURNS ⭐

  • 0 — the peer (server) did not request client authentication 🙈
  • 1 — otherwise. aka they DID ask. 😭

that's the whole range, girlie. zero or one. binary. iconic. 👑
