Hi, I wrote one C program to read the X509 certificate using OPENSSL functions. And I was trying access the different extensions and their values from certificate. First I am getting the NID of the extension using the below function.
----------------------- nid=OBJ_sn2nid(trimmedExtensionName); ----------------------- After getting the NID and am retrieving the value of the extension using the above NID The problem is if I give the name of the extension given as in the certificate, the OBJ_sn2nid function is throwing NULL value that means it is unable to find the extension. If I write the same extension name which is given in the obj_mac.h then the function is returning the value. For example if I am trying to retrieve the value of the subjectalternativename from the certificate. In the certificate this extension name is written as "SubjectAlternativeName" where as in the obj_mac.h it is there as "subjectAltName". If I pass this value then I am getting the correct result. At the sametime all the extensions in the certificate are not present in the obj_mac.h. What is the link between this function and obj_mac.h? Can I add any extensions to this file obj_mac.h? If yes How to give the number of the NID?
