SYNOPSIS

#include <openssl/x509v3.h>

int X509_check_ca(X509 *cert);

DESCRIPTION

This function checks if given certificate is CA certificate (can be used to sign other certificates).

RETURN VALUE

Function return 0, if it is not CA certificate, 1 if it is proper X509v3 CA certificate with basicConstraints extension CA:TRUE, 3, if it is self-signed X509 v1 certificate, 4, if it is certificate with keyUsage extension with bit keyCertSign set, but without basicConstraints, and 5 if it has outdated Netscape Certificate Type extension telling that it is CA certificate.
