💅 gnutls_ocsp_resp_get_nonce — the gnutls manual, bestie edition ✨

okay so picture this: you're deep in the gnutls man pages (iconic behavior, love that for you) and you land on gnutls_ocsp_resp_get_nonce(3). It's an API function. It's giving "quietly essential". Let's get into it 🎀

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <gnutls/ocsp.h>

int gnutls_ocsp_resp_get_nonce(gnutls_ocsp_resp_const_t resp, unsigned
       int * critical, gnutls_datum_t * nonce);

like, she's a whole function and she takes three things. slay 💖

🫶 ARGUMENTS 🫶

  • gnutls_ocsp_resp_const_t resp — this one should contain a gnutls_ocsp_resp_t type. that's the whole vibe, no notes.
  • unsigned int * critical — tells you whether the nonce extension is marked critical. yes, that's literally what it's for 🌸
  • gnutls_datum_t * nonce — this bad boy will hold a newly allocated buffer with the nonce data. fresh out of the oven, not yours yet, we'll get to that 👑

🌈 DESCRIPTION 🌈

This function will return the Basic OCSP Response nonce extension data. that's it, that's the job, and she does it well 💅

now the important part, bestie, listen up: the caller needs to deallocate memory by calling gnutls_free() on nonce->data.

🚨 not me letting you leak memory... free it with gnutls_free() on nonce->data or the vibe check will fail. no cap.

⭐ RETURNS ⭐

On success, GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS (0) is returned, otherwise a negative error code is returned. so like, zero is the good one here. don't panic when you see a 0, that's the win 🏆
