B<p7> is the appropriate B<PKCS7> -structure. If streaming is enabled then the content must be supplied in the -B<data> argument. B<flags> is an optional set of flags. - -=head1 NOTES - -The following flags can be passed in the B<flags> parameter. - -If B<PKCS7_DETACHED> is set then cleartext signing will be used, -this option only makes sense for signedData where B<PKCS7_DETACHED> -is also set when PKCS7_sign() is also called. - -If the B<PKCS7_TEXT> flag is set MIME headers for type B<text/plain> -are added to the content, this only makes sense if B<PKCS7_DETACHED> -is also set. - -If the B<PKCS7_STREAM> flag is set streaming is performed. This flag should -only be set if B<PKCS7_STREAM> was also set in the previous call to -PKCS7_sign() or B<PKCS7_encrypt()>. - -If cleartext signing is being used and B<PKCS7_STREAM> not set then -the data must be read twice: once to compute the signature in PKCS7_sign() -and once to output the S/MIME message. - -If streaming is performed the content is output in BER format using indefinite -length constructuted encoding except in the case of signed data with detached -content where the content is absent and DER format is used. - -=head1 BUGS - -SMIME_write_PKCS7() always base64 encodes PKCS#7 structures, there -should be an option to disable this. - -=head1 RETURN VALUES - -SMIME_write_PKCS7() returns 1 for success or 0 for failure. - -=head1 SEE ALSO - -L<ERR_get_error(3)|ERR_get_error(3)>, L<PKCS7_sign(3)|PKCS7_sign(3)>, -L<PKCS7_verify(3)|PKCS7_verify(3)>, L<PKCS7_encrypt(3)|PKCS7_encrypt(3)> -L<PKCS7_decrypt(3)|PKCS7_decrypt(3)> - -=head1 HISTORY - -SMIME_write_PKCS7() was added to OpenSSL 0.9.5 - -=cut |
