record-oriented fashion. That means that every write() will write a
separate record, which will be read separately by the programs trying
to read from it. This can be very confusing.
The solution is to put a BIO filter in the way that will buffer text
until a linefeed is reached, and then write everything a line at a
time, so every record written will be an actual line, not chunks of
lines and not (usually doesn't happen, but I've seen it once) several
lines in one record. Voila, BIO_f_linebuffer() is born.
Since we're so close to release time, I'm making this VMS-only for
now, just to make sure no code is needlessly broken by this. After
the release, this BIO method will be enabled on all other platforms as
well.
ASN1_TYPE (though they are both ASN1_STRING so it didn't cause
any problems).
Make 'siglen' an int in apps/dgst.c so we can check the return
value of BIO_read() etc.
The old code was painfully primitive and couldn't handle
distinct certificates using the same subject name.
The new code performs several tests on a candidate issuer
certificate based on certificate extensions.
It also adds several callbacks to X509_VERIFY_CTX so its
behaviour can be customised.
Unfortunately some hackery was needed to persuade X509_STORE
to tolerate this. This should go away when X509_STORE is
replaced, sometime...
This must have broken something though :-(
This allows intermediate CAs to be created more easily.
PKCS12_create() now checks private key matches certificate.
Fix typo in x509 app.
Update docs.
New function ASN1_STRING_to_UTF8() converts any ASN1_STRING
type to UTF8.
initialize ex_pathlen to -1 so it isn't checked if pathlen
is not present.
set ucert to NULL in apps/pkcs12.c otherwise it gets freed
twice.
remove extraneous '\r' in MIME encoder.
Allow a NULL to be passed to X509_gmtime_adj()
Make PKCS#7 code use definite length encoding rather then
the indefinite stuff it used previously.
These have been created by a SHA.1 based procedure, see
http://www.skip-vpn.org/spec/numbers.html.
(These values are taken from that document, I have not
implemented the prime generator.)
environment variable OPENSSL_DEBUG_MEMORY (existence is sufficient). At the
same time, it makes sure that CRYPTO_malloc_debug_init() gets expanded some-
where and thereby tested for compilation.
functions. These are intended to be replacements
for the ancient ASN1_STRING_print() and X509_NAME_print()
functions.
The new functions support RFC2253 and various pretty
printing options. It is also possible to display
international characters if the terminal properly handles
UTF8 encoding (Linux seems to tolerate this if the
"unicode_start" script is run).
Still needs to be documented, integrated into other
utilities and extensively tested.
