1）All X509 operations are in the x509 module(folder).You may see the x509.h for more details.To load a X509 object , you can use d2i_X509 which converts the ANSI DER strings to X509 object(you can see the openssl doc for more function details). Also,you can reference the source code in ssl folder.I recommend you to reference the "int SSL_use_certificate_file(SSL *ssl, const char *file, int type)" function's implementation,which will tell you how to load a x509.
2)To get the information from the X509 object, you should see the x509.h. To get "CN ,OU..." , you can use "X509_NAME * X509_get_issuer_name(X509 *a);" or "X509_NAME * X509_get_subject_name(X509 *a);" To get a serial number , you can use "ASN1_INTEGER * X509_get_serialNumber(X509 *x);" At 2011-02-07 04:08:30，"Aro RANAIVONDRAMBOLA" <razuk...@gmail.com> wrote: Hello, I work with C++ language. I'd like to create a class named "certificate" in which I 'll have a X509 object and fonctions member like verify_certificate. 1) I would like to know how to load X509 certificate object, I do not see any fonction in the API which can do it ( out of handshake fonctions ). 2) Then How to parse this X509 certificate ( in pem format for example ). I must retrieve "serial number", "cn" etc ... Thanks for your help
