Hi Michael,
> Hmm, interesting. Can you describe what OpenSSL-related Python
> wrappers your are implementing?
Yes, sure. The wrappers are written in C, no SWIG dependancies. They are
intended to be pretty high level and cover almost the entire bredth of the
OpenSSL libraries. At the moment I have wrappers for:
asymetric ciphers(only RSA at the moment),
symetric ciphers,
digests(and signing using an RSA key),
preliminary SSL support(connect, bind, read, write, using a key and
certificate and a getting peer certificate),
prelininary X509_STORE support(adding trusted certificate, verifying a
certificate, adding a crl which is not much use until 9.7.
generation and interogation of X509 certificates(no extensions yet), RSA
signatures.
generation and interogation of CRLs(no extensions yet), RSA signatures and
verification.
miscilanious stuff to do with the RAND library and errors.
reading and writing in PEM format(X509, CRLs and RSA) no DER support yet.
I have a project on freshmeat, Python Openssl Wrappers(POW). No uploaded
code yet. I wanted to produce some documentation and do a bit more cleaning
of the code before I announced it offically. Let me know if you want to know
more.
