RE: Any API available to get the CRL next update time in ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME?

[surendra.ande]

Hi Team,

 

I found the following API to get the time ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME format.

======================================================

ASN1_TIME *ctm = NULL;
ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME *asn1_time = NULL;

 

 ctm = M_ASN1_TIME_dup (X509_CRL_get_nextUpdate(base_crl));
 asn1_time = M_ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_dup(ctm);

 printf ("The CRL's NEXT UPDATE TIME in ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME format: %s", asn1_time->data);

=======================================================

Result of this code is:

The CRL's NEXT UPDATE TIME in ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME format: [061117082334Z]
========================================================

 

The time I am seeing is: 061117082334Z.

Can I interpret that time like : 2006 Nov 17 08:23:34 ?. But how do I convert like this?

 

How do i convert the 061117082334Z to 2006 Nov 17 08:23:34 ?.

 

Appreciate your thouights on the same. Thanks a lot.

Hi,

 

Is there any API available to get the next update time of CRL in ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME format?

 

The next update time can be retrieved in ASN1_TIME format using the following API:

get_crl_update_time(X509_CRL *crl )

{

   ASN1_TIME *ctm = NULL;

 

   ctm = M_ASN1_TIME_dup (X509_CRL_get_nextUpdate(crl));

 

   /* The ctm is in ASN1_TIME format. Is there any API available

        to get the time in ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME format?? */

}

 

Thanks in advance.

 

With best regards,

-Surendra
