SecCertificateCopyNormalizedIssuerContent(_:_:)

Declaration

func SecCertificateCopyNormalizedIssuerContent(_ certificate: SecCertificate, _ error: UnsafeMutablePointer<Unmanaged<CFError>?>?) -> CFData?

Parameters

• certificate:

  The certificate from which the issuer’s distinguished name should be copied.

• error:

  A pointer to a Cferror variable where an error object is stored upon failure. If not NULL, the caller is responsible for checking this variable and releasing the resulting object if it exists.

Return Value

A data object containing a DER-encoded X.509 distinguished name suitable for use with SecItemCopyMatching(_:_:). Returns NULL if an error occurred. In Objective-C, free the object with a call to the CFRelease function when you are done with it.

Discussion

To obtain a copy of the issuer’s distinguished name in a format suitable for display purposes, call SecCertificateCopyValues(_:_:_:) instead.
