Its an add-on, and not part of the library proper. Just unzip it into the Crypto++ sources and build the library as usual (the makefile will pick up the new sources automatically).
The line length is hard coded at 64 per RFC 1421, but it can be changed. To change it, open pem-com.h (PEM common) and change the following on line 87: // 64-character line length is required by RFC 1421 and used by OpenSSL. static const unsigned int OPENSSL_B64_LINE_BREAK = 64; Jeff ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org User Support Mailing List openssl-users@openssl.org Automated List Manager majord...@openssl.org
