<h4 class="subsection">5.3.5 Writing objects</h4>

<p>With <acronym>GnuTLS</acronym> you can copy existing private keys and certificates
to a token. Note that when copying private keys it is recommended to mark
them as sensitive using the <code>GNUTLS_PKCS11_OBJ_FLAG_MARK_SENSITIVE</code>
to prevent its extraction. An object can be marked as private using the flag 
<code>GNUTLS_PKCS11_OBJ_FLAG_MARK_PRIVATE</code>, to require PIN to be
entered before accessing the object (for operations or otherwise).
</p>




<dl>
<dt><a name="index-gnutls_005fpkcs11_005fcopy_005fx509_005fprivkey2"></a>Function: <em>int</em> <strong>gnutls_pkcs11_copy_x509_privkey2</strong> <em>(const char * <var>token_url</var>, gnutls_x509_privkey_t <var>key</var>, const char * <var>label</var>, const gnutls_datum_t * <var>cid</var>, unsigned int <var>key_usage</var>, unsigned int <var>flags</var>)</em></dt>
<dd><p><var>token_url</var>: A PKCS <code>11</code>  URL specifying a token
</p>
<p><var>key</var>: A private key
</p>
<p><var>label</var>: A name to be used for the stored data
</p>
<p><var>cid</var>: The CKA_ID to set for the object -if NULL, the ID will be derived from the public key
</p>
<p><var>key_usage</var>: One of GNUTLS_KEY_*
</p>
<p><var>flags</var>: One of GNUTLS_PKCS11_OBJ_* flags
</p>
<p>This function will copy a private key into a PKCS <code>11</code>  token specified by
a URL. It is highly recommended flags to contain <code>GNUTLS_PKCS11_OBJ_FLAG_MARK_SENSITIVE</code> 
unless there is a strong reason not to.
</p>
<p><strong>Returns:</strong> On success, <code>GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS</code>  (0) is returned, otherwise a
negative error value.
</p>
<p><strong>Since:</strong> 3.4.0

<p><var>flags</var>: One of GNUTLS_PKCS11_OBJ_FLAG_*
</p>
<p>This function will copy a certificate into a PKCS <code>11</code>  token specified by
a URL. Valid flags to mark the certificate: <code>GNUTLS_PKCS11_OBJ_FLAG_MARK_TRUSTED</code> ,
<code>GNUTLS_PKCS11_OBJ_FLAG_MARK_SENSITIVE</code> , <code>GNUTLS_PKCS11_OBJ_FLAG_MARK_PRIVATE</code> ,
<code>GNUTLS_PKCS11_OBJ_FLAG_MARK_CA</code> , <code>GNUTLS_PKCS11_OBJ_FLAG_MARK_ALWAYS_AUTH</code> .

<p><strong>Returns:</strong> On success, <code>GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS</code>  (0) is returned, otherwise a

Note that not all tokens support the delete operation.
