=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
This function checks if given certificate is CA certificate (can be used
|
|
to sign other certificates).
|
|
|
|
=head1 RETURN VALUE
|
|
|
|
Function return 0, if it is not CA certificate, 1 if it is proper X509v3
|
|
CA certificate with B<basicConstraints> extension CA:TRUE,
|
|
3, if it is selfsigned X509 v1 certificate, 4, if it is certificate with
|
|
B<keyUsage> extension with bit B<keyCertSign> set, but without
|
|
B<basicConstraints>, and 5 if it has outdated Netscape Certificate Type
|
|
extension telling that it is CA certificate.
|
|
|
|
Actually, any non-zero value means that this certificate could have been
|
|
used to sign other certificates.
