#include <gnutls/x509.h>int gnutls_x509_rdn_get(const gnutls_datum_t *idn, char *buf,size_t *buf_size);

This function will return the name of the given RDN sequence. The name will be in the form "C=xxxx,O=yyyy,CN=zzzz" as described in RFC4514. This function does not output a fully RFC4514 compliant string, if that is required seegnutls_x509_rdn_get2().
