CertFindSubjectInSortedCTL function (wincrypt.h)
The CertFindSubjectInSortedCTL function attempts to find the specified subject in a sorted certificate trust list (CTL). A subject can be identified either by the certificate's whole context or by any unique identifier of the certificate's subject, such as the SHA1 hash of the certificate's issuer and serial number.
Syntax
BOOL CertFindSubjectInSortedCTL(
[in] PCRYPT_DATA_BLOB pSubjectIdentifier,
[in] PCCTL_CONTEXT pCtlContext,
[in] DWORD dwFlags,
[in] void *pvReserved,
[out] PCRYPT_DER_BLOB pEncodedAttributes
);
Parameters
[in] pSubjectIdentifier
A pointer to a CRYPT_DATA_BLOB structure uniquely identifying the subject. The information in this structure can be a hash or any unique byte sequence.
[in] pCtlContext
A pointer to the CTL_CONTEXT structure to be searched.
[in] dwFlags
Reserved for future use and must be NULL.
[in] pvReserved
Reserved for future use and must be NULL.
[out] pEncodedAttributes
A pointer to a CRYPT_DER_BLOB structure containing a byte count and a pointer to the subject's encoded attributes.
Return value
If the function succeeds and the subject identifier exists in the CTL, the return value is TRUE.
If the function fails and does not locate a matching subject identifier, the return value is FALSE.
