SecCertificateCopyNormalizedSubjectContent(_:_:)

Declaration

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

Parameters

• certificate:

  The certificate from which the subject’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 this object with a call to the CFRelease function when you are done with it.

Discussion

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