Detailed Description

Create/Destroy/Modify GSI Credential Handle Attributes.

Within the Globus GSI Credential Library, all credential handles contain a attribute structure, which in turn contains handle instance independent attributes.

This section defines operations to create, modify and destroy GSI Credential handle attributes.

Function Documentation

globus_result_t globus_gsi_cred_handle_attrs_init ( globus_gsi_cred_handle_attrs_t handle_attrs)

Initializes the immutable Credential Handle Attributes The handle attributes are initialized as follows:

  • The search order is set to SERVICE, HOST, PROXY, USER
  • All other attributes are set to 0/NULL
Parameters:
handle_attrsthe attributes to be initialized
Returns:
GLOBUS_SUCESS if initialization was successful, otherwise an error is returned
globus_result_t globus_gsi_cred_handle_attrs_destroy ( globus_gsi_cred_handle_attrs_t  handle_attrs)

Destroy the Credential Handle Attributes.

This function does some cleanup and deallocation of the handle attributes.

Parameters:
handle_attrsThe handle attributes to destroy
Returns:
GLOBUS_SUCCESS
globus_result_t globus_gsi_cred_handle_attrs_copy ( globus_gsi_cred_handle_attrs_t  source,
globus_gsi_cred_handle_attrs_t dest 
)

Copy the Credential Handle Attributes.

Parameters:
sourceThe handle attribute to be copied
destThe copy
Returns:
GLOBUS_SUCESS unless there was an error, in which case an error object is returned.
globus_result_t globus_gsi_cred_handle_attrs_set_ca_cert_dir ( globus_gsi_cred_handle_attrs_t  handle_attrs,
char *  ca_cert_dir 
)

Set the Trusted CA Certificate Directory Location.

Parameters:
handle_attrsthe credential handle attributes to set
ca_cert_dirthe trusted ca certificates directory
Returns:
GLOBUS_SUCCESS if no errors occurred. In case of a null handle_attrs, an error object id is returned
globus_result_t globus_gsi_cred_handle_attrs_get_ca_cert_dir ( globus_gsi_cred_handle_attrs_t  handle_attrs,
char **  ca_cert_dir 
)

Get the trusted ca cert directory.

Parameters:
handle_attrsthe credential handle attributes to get the trusted ca cert directory from
ca_cert_dirthe trusted ca certificates directory
Returns:
GLOBUS_SUCCESS if no errors occurred. In case of a null handle_attrs or pointer to ca_cert_dir, an error object id is returned
globus_result_t globus_gsi_cred_handle_attrs_set_search_order ( globus_gsi_cred_handle_attrs_t  handle_attrs,
globus_gsi_cred_type_t  search_order[] 
)

Set the search order for finding a user certificate.

The default value is {SERVICE, HOST, PROXY, USER}

Parameters:
handle_attrsThe handle attributes to set the search order of
search_orderThe search order. Should be a three element array containing in some order PROXY, USER, HOST, SERVICE. The array should be terminated by the value GLOBUS_SO_END.
Returns:
GLOBUS_SUCCESS unless handle_attrs is null
globus_result_t globus_gsi_cred_handle_attrs_get_search_order ( globus_gsi_cred_handle_attrs_t  handle_attrs,
globus_gsi_cred_type_t **  search_order 
)

Get the search order of the handle attributes.

Parameters:
handle_attrsThe handle attributes to get the search order from
search_orderThe search_order of the handle attributes
Returns:
GLOBUS_SUCCESS unless handle_attrs is null
