gnutls_x509_crq_get_dn_by_oid(3)  gnutls gnutls_x509_crq_get_dn_by_oid(3)
       gnutls_x509_crq_get_dn_by_oid - API function
       #include <gnutls/x509.h>
       int gnutls_x509_crq_get_dn_by_oid(gnutls_x509_crq_t crq, const
       char * oid, unsigned indx, unsigned int raw_flag, void * buf,
       size_t * buf_size);
       gnutls_x509_crq_t crq
                   should contain a gnutls_x509_crq_t type
       const char * oid
                   holds an Object Identifier in a null terminated string
       unsigned indx
                   In case multiple same OIDs exist in the RDN, this
                   specifies which to get. Use (0) to get the first one.
       unsigned int raw_flag
                   If non-zero returns the raw DER data of the DN part.
       void * buf  a pointer to a structure to hold the name (may be
                   NULL)
       size_t * buf_size
                   initially holds the size of  buf
       This function will extract the part of the name of the Certificate
       request subject, specified by the given OID. The output will be
       encoded as described in RFC2253. The output string will be ASCII
       or UTF-8 encoded, depending on the certificate data.
       Some helper macros with popular OIDs can be found in gnutls/x509.h
       If raw flag is (0), this function will only return known OIDs as
       text. Other OIDs will be DER encoded, as described in RFC2253 --
       in hex format with a 'using gnutls_x509_dn_oid_known().
       GNUTLS_E_SHORT_MEMORY_BUFFER if the provided buffer is not long
       enough, and in that case the * buf_size will be updated with the
       required size.  On success 0 is returned.
