The problem is retrieving distribution points. I need to know certificate extensions especially distribution points extension in its decoded form. So the function CERT_FindCRLDistributionPoints seems good to me moreover it calls CERT_DecodeCRLDistributionPoints, that's what I want. Unfortunately using this function outside nss results in an undifined symbol error during compilation. I found CERT_FindCRLDistributionPoints isn't declared in nss.def as a public API function. Is that a bug?
The whole subject of CRL DPs is complicated by the existence of a patent.
Is there any other simple way retrieving distribution points URI from a CERTCertificate structure? Note: adding CERT_FindCRLDistributionPoints to nss.def file allow me to do what I want.
Some of us are trying to find out if doing so would infringe or be contributory or indirect infringement. If not, then I think it would be reasonable to export that function.
