NAME
       gnutls_x509_crt_get_ca_status - API function

SYNOPSIS
       #include <gnutls/x509.h>

       int gnutls_x509_crt_get_ca_status(gnutls_x509_crt_t cert, unsigned int
       * critical);

ARGUMENTS
       gnutls_x509_crt_t cert
                   should contain a gnutls_x509_crt_t type

       unsigned int * critical
                   will be non-zero if the extension is marked as critical

DESCRIPTION
       This function will return certificates CA status, by reading the
       basicConstraints X.509 extension (2.5.29.19). If the certificate is a
       CA a positive value will be returned, or (0) if the certificate does
       not have CA flag set.

       Use gnutls_x509_crt_get_basic_constraints() if you want to read the
       pathLenConstraint field too.

RETURNS
       If the certificate is a CA a positive value will be returned, or (0) if
       the certificate does not have CA flag set.  A negative error code may
       be returned in case of errors.  If the certificate does not contain the
       basicConstraints extension GNUTLS_E_REQUESTED_DATA_NOT_AVAILABLE will
       be returned.
