Diffie Hellman problem

[Aleix Ventayol]

Hi everyone,

I'm using a Diffie Hellman Agreemant on one app. I've been able to generate
the DH without any problems, but now I should send the DH information to
the server.

We've an example of the same process written in Java, what this app
generates to send to the client is:

SEQUENCE {
  SEQUENCE {
     OBJECTIDENTIFIER 1.2.840.113549.1.3.1
     SEQUENCE {
        INTEGER
0x00ffffffffffffffffc90fdaa22168c234c4c6628b80dc1cd129024e088a67cc74020bbea63b139b22514a08798e3404ddef9519b3cd3a431b302b0a6df25f14374fe1356d6d51c245e485b576625e7ec6f44c42e9a637ed6b0bff5cb6f406b7edee386bfb5a899fa5ae9f24117c4b1fe649286651ece45b3dc2007cb8a163bf0598da48361c55d39a69163fa8fd24cf5f83655d23dca3ad961c62f356208552bb9ed529077096966d670c354e4abc9804f1746c08ca18217c32905e462e36ce3be39e772c180e86039b2783a2ec07a28fb5c55df06f4c52c9de2bcbf6955817183995497cea956ae515d2261898fa051015728e5a8aacaa68ffffffffffffffff
        INTEGER 0x02 (2 decimal)
     }
  }
  BITSTRING

>From my c++ app I try to get the same information using
PEM_write_bio_DHparams. I get  almost the same but without the BITSTRING
and the OBJECTIDENTIFIER.

  INTEGER 0x02 (2 decimal)}

Any clue about where's the problem?

I've seen that Java version generates a X.509 certificate to send the data,
maybe I should generate a X509 certificate from the DH on my c++ version?
