.SH NAME
gnutls_pubkey_verify_hash2 \- API function
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B #include <gnutls/abstract.h>
.sp
.BI "int gnutls_pubkey_verify_hash2(gnutls_pubkey_t " key ", gnutls_sign_algorithm_t " algo ", unsigned int " flags ", const gnutls_datum_t * " hash ", const gnutls_datum_t * " signature ");"
.SH ARGUMENTS
.IP "gnutls_pubkey_t key" 12
Holds the public key
.IP "gnutls_sign_algorithm_t algo" 12
The signature algorithm used
.IP "unsigned int flags" 12
Zero or an OR list of \fBgnutls_certificate_verify_flags\fP
.IP "const gnutls_datum_t * hash" 12
holds the hash digest to be verified
.IP "const gnutls_datum_t * signature" 12
contains the signature
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
This function will verify the given signed digest, using the
parameters from the public key. Note that unlike \fBgnutls_privkey_sign_hash()\fP,
this function accepts a signature algorithm instead of a digest algorithm.
You can use \fBgnutls_pk_to_sign()\fP to get the appropriate value.
.SH "RETURNS"
In case of a verification failure \fBGNUTLS_E_PK_SIG_VERIFY_FAILED\fP 
is returned, and zero or positive code on success. For known to be insecure
signatures this function will return \fBGNUTLS_E_INSUFFICIENT_SECURITY\fP unless
the flag \fBGNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_BROKEN\fP is specified.
.SH "SINCE"
3.0
.SH "REPORTING BUGS"
Report bugs to <bugs@gnutls.org>.
