gnutls_x509_crq_get_attribute_by_oid — API function

#include <gnutls/x509.h>

`int gnutls_x509_crq_get_attribute_by_oid(`	gnutls_x509_crq_t `crq`,
	const char * `oid`,
	int `indx`,
	void * `buf`,
	size_t * `buf_size)`;

gnutls_x509_crq_t crq: should contain a gnutls_x509_crq_t structure
const char * oid: holds an Object Identifier in null−terminated string
int indx: In case multiple same OIDs exist in the attribute list, this specifies which to get, use (0) to get the first one
void * buf: a pointer to a structure to hold the attribute data (may be NULL)
size_t * buf_size: initially holds the size of buf

This function will return the attribute in the certificate request specified by the given Object ID. The attribute will be DER encoded.

Attributes in a certificate request is an optional set of data appended to the request. Their interpretation depends on the CA policy.

On success, GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS (0) is returned, otherwise a negative error value.
