I found it on Apple’s website, but it looks like it was last updated for iOS 3, and it has a bunch of obsolete workarounds for running in the simulator (a long time ago the Keychain APIs were different in the device and simulator environments.) > Shall I use below code to create and send an encoded string to server: > 1.

The two lines you gave aren’t going to do anything by themselves — getPublicKeyBits just reads an already-existing public key out of the Keychain and encodes it. You have to generate the key first. —Jens PS: This discussion really belongs on the apple_cdsa list, which is for crypto/security discussions. Unfortunately Apple’s engineers never help out on that list (unlike on xcode-users or macnetworkprog), but there are some other fairly knowledgeable people there. _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
