A better question is to match a given hostname
against a certificate and determine whether it
obeys the https rules.
There can be multiple hostnames and wild cards.
The code implemented by curl is a complete way to do this.

Oops, sorry, you are right, I failed to notice the code that does this
just above the CN code. So,
I am looking for the way to read a certificate from disk in C code and
get the hostname (CN) inside that certificate in the C code using the

Sadly, a rather complex task in general:
