.SH NAME
gnutls_pkcs11_obj_get_pk_algorithm \- API function
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B #include <gnutls/pkcs11.h>
.sp
.BI "int gnutls_pkcs11_obj_get_pk_algorithm(gnutls_pkcs11_obj_t " obj ", unsigned int * " bits ");"
.SH ARGUMENTS
.IP "gnutls_pkcs11_obj_t obj" 12
The pkcs11 object
.IP "unsigned int * bits" 12
Will hold the rsa/dsa bit count or the ecc curve
This function given a pkcs11 object with privkey_type initialized,
will return the algorithm type on success , and will store the number
of bits if the algo type is \fBGNUTLS_PK_RSA\fP or \fBGNUTLS_PK_DSA\fP, or the curve
if the algo type is \fBGNUTLS_PK_ECDSA\fP.
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
The return value needs to be checked to determine if bits represents
the ecc curve or the number of bits.
.SH "RETURNS"
The private key algorithm associated with the object on success
or a an error code otherwise.
.SH "SINCE"
3.8.13
.SH "REPORTING BUGS"
Report bugs to <bugs@gnutls.org>.
