NAME

CSSM_CL_IsCertInCrl — Search CRL for a certificate record (CDSA)

SYNOPSIS

# include <cssm.h>
API:
CSSM_RETURN CSSMAPI CSSM_CL_IsCertInCrl
(CSSM_CL_HANDLE CLHandle,
const CSSM_DATA *Cert,
const CSSM_DATA *Crl,
CSSM_BOOL *CertFound)
SPI:
CSSM_RETURN CSSMCLI CL_IsCertInCrl
(CSSM_CL_HANDLE CLHandle,
const CSSM_DATA *Cert,
const CSSM_DATA *Crl,
CSSM_BOOL *CertFound)

LIBRARY

Common Security Services Manager library (cdsa$incssm300_shr.exe)

PARAMETERS

CLHandle (input) 

The handle that describes the add-in Certificate Library module used to perform this function.

Cert (input) 

A pointer to the CSSM_DATA structure containing the certificate to be located.

Crl (input) 

A pointer to the CSSM_DATA structure containing the CRL to be searched.

CertFound (output)
  

A pointer to a CSSM_BOOL indicating success or failure in finding the specified certificate in the CRL. CSSM_TRUE signifies that the certificate was found in the CRL. CSSM_FALSE indicates that the certificate was not found in the CRL.

DESCRIPTION

This function searches the CRL for a record corresponding to the certificate. The result of the search is returned in CertFound. The CRL and the records within the CRL must be digitally signed. This function does not verify either signature. The caller should use CSSM_TP_CrlVerify() or CSSM_CL_CrlVerify() (or their SPI equivalents) before invoking this function. Once the CRL has been verified, the caller can invoke this function repeatedly without repeating the verification process.

RETURN VALUE

A CSSM_RETURN value indicating success or specifying a particular error condition. The value CSSM_OK indicates success. All other values represent an error condition.

ERRORS

Errors are described in the CDSA Technical Standard.

CSSMERR_CL_INVALID_CERT_POINTER
CSSMERR_CL_INVALID_CRL_POINTER
CSSMERR_CL_UNKNOWN_FORMAT
