gnutls_certificate_free_crls - Linux


Overview

gnutls_certificate_free_crls is a command that frees the Certificate Revocation Lists (CRLs) for a given certificate. It’s commonly used within GnuTLS to manage the CRLs associated with a specific certificate and ensure that only valid certificates are used for secure communication.

Syntax

gnutls_certificate_free_crls(certificate)

certificate: The certificate for which the CRLs should be freed.

Options/Flags

None.

Examples

// Free the CRLs for a certificate
gnutls_certificate_free_crls(certificate);

Common Issues

If the certificate is invalid or does not have any associated CRLs, the command will do nothing. To avoid such errors, ensure that the certificate is valid and contains CRL information.

Integration

gnutls_certificate_free_crls can be used in conjunction with other GnuTLS commands to manage certificate information. For example, it can be used after gnutls_certificate_verify to free the CRLs of a certificate that has been verified for use.
