NAME
       gnutls_x509_crt_set_issuer_dn_by_oid  -	Set  the  Certificate  request
       issuer's distinguished name

SYNOPSIS
       #include <gnutls/x509.h>

       int gnutls_x509_crt_set_issuer_dn_by_oid(gnutls_x509_crt_t  crt,  const
       char  *	oid,  unsigned	int  raw_flag, const void * name, unsigned int
       sizeof_name);

ARGUMENTS
       gnutls_x509_crt_t crt

		   a certificate of type gnutls_x509_crt_t

       const char * oid

		   holds an Object Identifier in a null terminated string

       unsigned int raw_flag

		   must be 0, or 1 if the data are DER encoded

       const void * name

		   a pointer to the name

       unsigned int sizeof_name

		   holds the size of name

DESCRIPTION
       This function will set the part of the name of the Certificate  issuer,
       specified  by the given OID.  The input string should be ASCII or UTF-8
       encoded.

       Some helper macros with popular OIDs can be found in gnutls/x509.h With
       this  function  you can only set the known OIDs. You can test for known
       OIDs using gnutls_x509_dn_oid_known(). For OIDs that are not known  (by
       gnutls)	you  should properly DER encode your data, and call this func-
       tion with raw_flag set.

       Normally you do not need to call this function, since the signing oper-
       ation will copy the signer's name as the issuer of the certificate.

RETURNS
       On  success,  GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS  is returned, otherwise a negative error
       value.
