CERT_FindCertByIssuerAndSN
syntax #include <cert.h> certcertificate *cert_findcertbyissuerandsn ( certcertdbhandle *handle, certissuerandsn *issuerandsn ); parameters handle in pointer to a certcertdbhandle representing the certificate database to look in issuerandsn in pointer to a certissuerandsn that must be properly formed to contain the issuer name and the serial number (see [example]) description this function creates a certificate key using the issuerandsn and it then uses the key to find the matching certificate in the database.
... example certissuerandsn issuersn; issuersn.derissuer.data = caname->data; issuersn.derissuer.len = caname->len; issuersn.serialnumber.data = authoritykeyid->authcertserialnumber.data; issuersn.serialnumber.len = authoritykeyid->authcertserialnumber.len; issuercert = cert_findcertbyissuerandsn(cert->dbhandle, &issuersn); if ( issuercert == null ) { port_seterror (sec_error_unknown_issuer); } see also occurrences of cert_findcertbyissuerandsn in the current nss source code (generated by lxr).
