NAME
       gnutls_x509_crq_sign2 - API function


SYNOPSIS
       #include <gnutls/x509.h>

       int  gnutls_x509_crq_sign2(gnutls_x509_crq_t  crq,  gnutls_x509_privkey_t  key, gnutls_digest_algorithm_t
       dig, unsigned int flags);


ARGUMENTS
       gnutls_x509_crq_t crq
                   should contain a gnutls_x509_crq_t type

       gnutls_x509_privkey_t key
                   holds a private key

       gnutls_digest_algorithm_t dig
                   The message digest to use, i.e., GNUTLS_DIG_SHA256

       unsigned int flags
                   must be 0


DESCRIPTION
       This function will sign the certificate request with a private key.  This must be the same key as the one
       used in gnutls_x509_crt_set_key() since a certificate request is self signed.

       This must be the last step in a certificate request generation since all the  previously  set  parameters
       are now signed.

       A  known  limitation of this function is, that a newly-signed request will not be fully functional (e.g.,
       for signature verification), until it is exported an re-imported.

       After GnuTLS 3.6.1 the value of  dig may  be  GNUTLS_DIG_UNKNOWN,  and  in  that  case,  a  suitable  but
       reasonable for the key algorithm will be selected.


RETURNS
       GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS  on success, otherwise a negative error code.  GNUTLS_E_ASN1_VALUE_NOT_FOUND is returned
       if  you  didn't  set  all  information  in   the   certificate   request   (e.g.,   the   version   using
       gnutls_x509_crq_set_version()).
