✨ gnutls_x509_cr...hibit_anypolicy(3) ✨

okay bestie, we're in the gnutls manual and today's main character is gnutls_x509_crt_set_inhibit_anypolicy 💅 buckle up, it's a short one but she EATS.

🎀 NAME 🎀

gnutls_x509_crt_set_inhibit_anypolicy — an API function, periodt. that's the whole name section, she's lowkey mysterious like that 🦋

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <gnutls/x509.h>

int gnutls_x509_crt_set_inhibit_anypolicy(gnutls_x509_crt_t crt,
unsigned int skipcerts);

like. the vibes are immaculate. one include, one function, two args. we love a clean signature 😌

🫶 ARGUMENTS 🫶

  • gnutls_x509_crt_t crt — a certificate of type gnutls_x509_crt_t. yes bestie, that's the exact same type name twice in one sentence, that's just how the family rolls, iykyk 💖
  • unsigned int skipcerts — the number of certificates after which anypolicy is no longer acceptable. so basically: how many more hops down the chain before anypolicy stops being invited to the party 🎉

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

okay so here's the tea: this function will set the Inhibit anyPolicy certificate extension ✨ that's it. that's the whole description. she's concise, she's confident, she knows what she's about 👑

no cap, sometimes the shortest descriptions are the most iconic.

🌈 RETURNS 🌈

on success, GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS (0) is returned 🥳 otherwise you get a negative error value, which is the code equivalent of "not me, not today" 😭

reminder bestie: negative value = something went wrong, so always check that return, fr fr 💀
