CL_CertCreateTemplate(3)
NAME
  CL_CertCreateTemplate, CSSM_CL_CertCreateTemplate - Allocate and initialize
  memory for a certificate template (CDSA)

SYNOPSIS
  # include <cdsa/cssm.h>

       API:
       CSSM_RETURN CSSMAPI CSSM_CL_CertCreateTemplate
       (CSSM_CL_HANDLE CLHandle,
       uint32 NumberOfFields,
       const CSSM_FIELD *CertFields,
       CSSM_DATA_PTR CertTemplate)
       SPI:
       CSSM_RETURN CSSMCLI CL_CertCreateTemplate
       (CSSM_CL_HANDLE CLHandle,
       uint32 NumberOfFields,
       const CSSM_FIELD *CertFields,
       CSSM_DATA_PTR CertTemplate)

LIBRARY
  Common Security Services Manager library (libcssm.so)

PARAMETERS
  CLHandle (input)
	  The handle that describes the certificate library module used to
	  perform this function.

  NumberOfFields (input)
	  The number of certificate field values specified in the CertFields.

  CertFields (input)
	  A pointer to an array of OID/value pairs that identify the field
	  values to initialize a new certificate.

  CertTemplate (output)
	  A pointer to a CSSM_DATA structure that will contain the unsigned
	  certificate template as a result of this function.

DESCRIPTION
  This function allocates and initializes memory for an encoded certificate
  template output in CertTemplate->Data. The template values are specified by
  the input OID/value pairs contained in CertFields. The initialization
  process includes encoding all certificate field values according to the
  certificate type and certificate encoding supported by the certificate
  library module.

  The memory for CertTemplate->Data is allocated by the service provider
  using the calling application's memory management routines.  The
  application must deallocate the memory.

RETURN VALUE
  A CSSM_RETURN value indicating success or specifying a particular error
  condition. The value CSSM_OK indicates success. All other values represent
  an error condition.

ERRORS
  Errors are described in the CDSA technical standard.	See CDSA_intro(3).

       CSSMERR_CL_INVALID_FIELD_POINTER
       CSSMERR_CL_UNKNOWN_TAG
       CSSMERR_CL_INVALID_NUMBER_OF_FIELDS
