Declaration

GTlsCertificate*
g_tls_certificate_new_from_pkcs12 (
  const guint8* data,
  gsize length,
  const gchar* password,
  GError** error
)

Description

Creates a GTlsCertificate from the data in data. It must contain a certificate and matching private key.

If extra certificates are included they will be verified as a chain and the GTlsCertificate:issuer property will be set. All other data will be ignored.

You can pass as single password for all of the data which will be used both for the PKCS #12 container as well as encrypted private keys. If decryption fails it will error with G_TLS_ERROR_BAD_CERTIFICATE_PASSWORD.

This constructor requires support in the current GTlsBackend. If support is missing it will error with G_IO_ERROR_NOT_SUPPORTED.

Other parsing failures will error with G_TLS_ERROR_BAD_CERTIFICATE.
