💖 gnutls_x509_name_constraints_init 💖

okay bestie, so this one lives in the gnutls manual — section 3, to be exact — and it's genuinely one of the cutest lil setup functions you'll ever meet. it's an API function, it's giving "starter pack" energy, and we're gonna walk through it together. no cap. 🫶

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <gnutls/x509.h>

int gnutls_x509_name_constraints_init(gnutls_x509_name_constraints_t *nc);

like, that's the whole vibe. one include, one function, one pointer. slay. 💅

🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

  • gnutls_x509_name_constraints_t * nc — this is the nameconstraints. that's it, that's the whole job. you hand it a pointer and it becomes the nameconstraints. main character energy fr fr. 👑

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so basically this function will initialize a name constraints type. that's literally the assignment. it sets your nc up so it's ready to be a whole name constraints thing. lowkey the most chill init you'll ever call. ✨

🎀 RETURNS 🎀

  • on success? you get GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS — which is 0, and yes bestie, zero is the win here. iconic.
  • otherwise you get a negative error value. 😭 not the vibe, but at least it tells you.

⭐ SINCE ⭐

3.3.0 — so it's been around a while. seasoned. a legend, honestly.
