Subject: RE: Certificates in a buffer
You could do this to read in a certificate:
X509* loadCert(const char* inputBuffer)
{
BIO *cert = NULL;
X509* x509Cert = NULL;
cert = BIO_new_mem_buf(inputBuffer, -1);
if (cert)
{
X509Cert = PEM_read_bio_X509(cert, NULL, 0, NULL);
}
If (cert) BIO_free(cert);
Return x509Cert;
}
Loading the private key is similar, except you just call:
PEM_read_bio_PrivateKey()
This is what I do anyway.

Subject: Certificates in a buffer
Hi All
I have certificate and private key in a buffer (not in a file). How do
I pass on these to OpenSSL with out storing in a temp file? In other
words are there any APIs that take certificate from a buffer instead
of a file?
I could only find APIs that expect a file argument or X509* or ASN1
buffer? Are there any APIs that can convert PEM to ASN1?
Is there a function that can take PEM buffer and return a X509
structure?
I am getting certificates from a database. That is why I am looking
for such APIs.
