- Unsupported Release of the Certificate Library
- ----------------------------------------------
- Welcome to this unsupported release of the Certificate Library. This
- library contains:
- o Encoding for Version 1 X.509 certificates (X509Cert, X509Skip)
- o Encoding of Hashed Public Key Certificates (HashCert)
- o Useful primitive Classes such as Bstream.
- o Generic Interface Class (SkipCert)
- o ASN BER encoder/decoder
- o MD2 and MD5 Hash Functions
- o SHA-1 Hash Function
- Note: This library can only encode or decode Certificates. It is unable
- to sign or verify signatures on certificates. It is COMPLETELY
- unsupported. There is a nontrivial library. If you are not a developer,
- who is interested in digging into C++ class libraries, this library may not
- be for you. Some hints:
- o certs/lib/test.C is a simple test of encoding certificates
- o Class X509Cert is a generic X509 Certificate Class
- o Class X509Skip is an interface class to providing Skip Functions
- o Class HashCert is the Unsigned DH public value prividing an
- interface identical to X509Skip.
- o Class SkipCert is a base type which defines the interface that
- both HashCert and X509Skip confirm to. SkipCert is the preferred
- way for an application to deal with both HashCert and X509Cert.
- o certs/utils/print_cert is a good example of How all this stuff
- fits together, as well.
- Please send comments/bug fixes to freeskip@incog.com.
- This release has been brought to you by Sun Microsystems' Internet Commerce
- Group. Ashar Aziz, Tom Markson, Martin Patterson, Hemma Prafullchandra
- and Rich Skrenta worked on this release.
- Also included is the Big Number Library (bnlib) from Colin Plumb. Please
- see bnlib/legal.c for copyright information.
