Hi again,
fiurther to my last post I have, as suggested, begun looking at the
RSA
public/private key code to encrypt some information in the way that I want.
Once again I'm finding it very cryptic. Happily I found the rsaref directory
and it looks like it has the functions in it that I want. The function
prototypes
seem pretty self-explanitary but there's no documentation on how one
might go about filling up the RSArefPublicKey_st and RSArefPrivateKey_st
structures.
Once I know how to do this I should be able to use the rsaref examples
and from there move onto coding my own wrappers.
If someone could give me an example of how to fill up both of these
structures
I'd be very grateful.
I must say that for such a well-used library, the openssl functions seem to
have
little or no documentation, thereby making it a very difficult package for
most
coders to use. Is there a documentation project underway? I doubt I could
help
much, but I'm a dab hand at writing man pages and once I understand the code
a little better I'd be happy to start putting a tutorial together.
Cheers, Jim.
