HI! I'm currently trying to parse the X.509v3 certificate extensions with the help of an ASN.1 parser module for Python. I'm somewhat stuck into detail problems since I'm a total ASN.1 newbie. Maybe I have misunderstood some concepts. If I'm parsing the extensions do I have to use a-priori knowledge (e.g. definitions in RFC2459) to transform hard-coded to an appropriate data structure on my local platform? Or should I avoid applying such a-priori knowledge? Any hint is appreciated. Ciao, Michael. ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org User Support Mailing List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Automated List Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED]
