xenc_key_create_cert

Import a key from a certificate
xenc_key_create_cert (in name varchar, in cert varchar, in type varchar, in fmt int, in pkey varchar, in pass varchar);
Description

The function is used to import a key (usually an asymmetric key like RSA or DSA) into user's space from a certificate.

Parameters
name – The name of the key to be registered
cert – String containing the certificate
type – 'X.509' is only supported value
fmt – The input format of the certificate: 3 - "DER", 1 - "PEM" or 2 - "PKCS#12".
pkey – When an X.509 certificate is imported, this can be supplied to load the corresponding private key also. This is optional. Note that when the PKCS#12 format is used to import an X.509 certificate, the private key is in the 'cert', hence this parameter in such case must be omitted.
pass – The password to unlock the private key. If not required this can be NULL to indicate no password is needed.
Return Types

Errors

This function can generate the following errors:
