+Subject: Signing with envelope routines
+Sender: ssl-lists-owner@mincom.com
+Precedence: bulk
+Status: RO
+X-Status: D
+
+
+I have been trying to figure out how to produce signatures with EVP_
+routines. I seem to be able to read in private key and sign some
+data ok, but I can't figure out how I am supposed to read in
+public key so that I could verify my signature. I use self signed
+certificate.
+
+I figured I should use
+	EVP_PKEY* pkey = PEM_ASN1_read(d2i_PrivateKey, PEM_STRING_EVP_PKEY,
+	                               fp, NULL, NULL);
+to read in private key and this seems to work Ok.
+
+However when I try analogous
+	EVP_PKEY* pkey = PEM_ASN1_read(d2i_PublicKey, PEM_STRING_X509,
+	                               fp, NULL, NULL);
+the program fails with
+
+error:0D09508D:asn1 encoding routines:D2I_PUBLICKEY:unknown public key type:d2i_pu.c:93
+error:0906700D:PEM routines:PEM_ASN1_read_bio:ASN1 lib:pem_lib.c:232
+
+I figured that the second argument to PEM_ASN1_read should match the
+name in my PEM encoded object, hence PEM_STRING_X509.
+PEM_STRING_EVP_PKEY seems to be somehow magical
+because it matches whatever private key there happens to be. I could
+not find a similar constant to use with getting the certificate, however.
+
+Is my approach of using PEM_ASN1_read correct? What should I pass in
+as name?  Can I use normal (or even self signed) X509 certificate for
+verifying the signature?
+
+When will SSLeay documentation be written ;-)? If I would contribute
+comments to the code, would Eric take time to review them and include
+them in distribution?
+
+I'm using SSLeay-0.6.4. My program is included below along with the
+key and cert that I use.

+
+:-), PEM_STRING_EVP_PKEY is 'magical' :-).  In theory I should be using a
+standard such as PKCS#8 to store the private key so that the type is 
+encoded in the asn.1 encoding of the object.
+
+> Is my approach of using PEM_ASN1_read correct? What should I pass in

+
+The actual public key is kept in the certificate, so basically you have 
+to load the certificate and then 'unpack' the public key from the 
+certificate.

+
+:-) After SSLv3 and PKCS#7 :-).  I actually started doing a function list 
+but what I really need to do is do quite a few 'this is how you do xyz' 
+type documents.  I suppose the current method is to post to ssl-users and 
+I'll respond :-).
+
+I'll add a 'demo' directory for the next release, I've appended a 
+modified version of your program that works, you were very close :-).
