Hello All,

This is the first time I am posting to this forum.

If I am asking this question in the wrong forum please redirect me.

I am using OpenSSL 0.9.8.

I need to create a detached pkcs#7 signature of some piece of data and store
the signature in BER encoded format.

>From the man pages I understand that I can use pkcs7_sign function with
appropriate flags to get the detached signature.

 The problem I face is with writing the signature into a file in BER encoded
format. Only SMIME_write_PKCS7()seems to be available for outputting the
signature.

d2i_PKCS7_bio_stream() is documented to have been implemented in 0.9.9 but I
could not find that in even the latest development snapshot, obviously it is
yet to be implemented.

Is there any other way to output pkcs7_signed data to BER format?

Thanks for your time.

Thanks and regards.
Vijay
