NAME         top

       gnutls_psk_set_client_credentials - API function

SYNOPSIS         top

       #include <gnutls/gnutls.h>

       int
       gnutls_psk_set_client_credentials(gnutls_psk_client_credentials_t
       res, const char * username, const gnutls_datum_t * key,
       gnutls_psk_key_flags flags);

ARGUMENTS         top

       gnutls_psk_client_credentials_t res
                   is a gnutls_psk_client_credentials_t type.

       const char * username
                   is the user's zero-terminated userid

       const gnutls_datum_t * key
                   is the user's key

       gnutls_psk_key_flags flags
                   indicate the format of the key, either
                   GNUTLS_PSK_KEY_RAW or GNUTLS_PSK_KEY_HEX.

DESCRIPTION         top

       This function sets the username and password, in a
       gnutls_psk_client_credentials_t type.  Those will be used in PSK
       authentication.   username should be an ASCII string or UTF-8
       string. In case of a UTF-8 string it is recommended to be
       following the PRECIS framework for usernames (rfc8265). The key
       can be either in raw byte format or in Hex format (without the 0x
       prefix).

RETURNS         top

       On success, GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS (0) is returned, otherwise an error
       code is returned.
