✨ gnutls_privkey_get_type(3) ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the gnutls manual, section 3 💖 this one's a lil function called gnutls_privkey_get_type and it's literally the "who dis" of private keys. let's get into it 🫶

🌸 NAME 🌸

gnutls_privkey_get_type — an API function, and yes that's the whole name, she's simple and she knows it 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <gnutls/abstract.h>

gnutls_privkey_type_t gnutls_privkey_get_type(gnutls_privkey_t key);

like, that's it. one include, one function. no notes ✨

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • gnutls_privkey_t key — this bad boy should contain a gnutls_privkey_t type. that's the whole vibe check: hand me a key, I tell you what it is 🦋

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

so this function will return the type of the private key. and here's the lil plot twist — it's actually the type of the subsystem that was used to set this private key. not the key's personality, not its star sign, just which subsystem put it there. main character energy of the whole key object, fr fr 🌟

🌈 RETURNS 🌈

on success you get a member of the gnutls_privkey_type_t enumeration 💖

on error you get a negative error code — so if the number's negative, that's your sign something went sideways, no cap 😭

⭐ SINCE ⭐

2.12.0 — she's been iconic since way back, an OG 🎀
