ARGUMENTS

gnutls_x509_crt_t cert
    is the certificate to be verified

const gnutls_x509_crt_t * CA_list
    is one certificate that is considered to be trusted one

int CA_list_length
    holds the number of CA certificate in CA_list

unsigned int flags

DESCRIPTION
This function will try to verify the given certificate and return its status. Note that a verification error does not imply a negative return status. In that case the verify status is set. The details of the verification are the same as in gnutls_x509_trust_list_verify_crt2().
