💖 gnutls_pkcs7_add_attr(3) 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to the gnutls manual page for gnutls_pkcs7_add_attr — it's literally the API function that adds a PKCS 7 attribute to a list, and we're gonna get you all the way together on it ✨

🎀 NAME 🎀

gnutls_pkcs7_add_attr — API function, no cap.

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <gnutls/pkcs7.h>

int gnutls_pkcs7_add_attr(gnutls_pkcs7_attrs_t * list, const char * oid,
gnutls_datum_t * data, unsigned flags);

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • gnutls_pkcs7_attrs_t * list — a list of attributes you already have, or a pointer to NULL if this is the very first one 🫶
  • const char * oid — the OID of the attribute you wanna set, periodt
  • gnutls_datum_t * data — the raw, DER-encoded data of the attribute you're setting 👑
  • unsigned flags — either zero, or GNUTLS_PKCS7_ATTR_ENCODE_OCTET_STRING 💅

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

This function will set a PKCS 7 attribute in the list you handed it. And heads up bestie — if this function fails, the previous list would be deallocated 😭 so like, don't go reaching for it afterwards, it's gone.

Also, quick vibe check: any attributes you set with this function must either be DER or BER encoded, unless a special flag is present. iykyk.

🌈 RETURNS 🌈

On success, the new list head 🎉 — otherwise NULL. that's it, that's the return.

⭐ SINCE ⭐
