💖 gnutls_x509_crl_get_this_update 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the gnutls manual, section 3 🎀 this one's a lil baby function and it's honestly kind of iconic. it lives in the gnutls family (you'll see gnutls_x509_crl_get_this_update(3) floating around everywhere) and it's here to answer one very important question: when was this CRL even issued?? 🦋

✨ NAME ✨

gnutls_x509_crl_get_this_update — API function 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <gnutls/x509.h>

time_t gnutls_x509_crl_get_this_update(gnutls_x509_crl_t crl);

like, that's the whole vibe. one include, one function, one time_t coming back at you 🫶

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • gnutls_x509_crl_t crl — bestie this should contain a gnutls_x509_crl_t type. that's it, that's the requirement. no cap 💖

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

so basically this function will return the time this CRL was issued. the CRL knows when it was born and this is how you ask it 🥹 it's giving "when's your birthday" but for certificate revocation lists, and the answer comes back as a time_t. periodt ✨

⭐ RETURNS ⭐

  • the time when the CRL was issued, slay ✅
  • or (time_t)-1 on error 😭 — yeah, that's the sad path, watch out for it
