Hi,
Sorry for the bad information you received...
If you're using basic PK functionalities like RSA key generation, RSA signature or RSA
encryption it's very simple with a GemXpresso 211 PK card.
You get the GemXpresso RAD kit that is the requested tool for applet build and card
managment (load, install, ...).
A PK example exist on the kit depending the version you have, it's name is
"CryptoApplet". It shows how to implement Key gen, Cipher, hash, and Signature
algorithms with Javacard 2.1.1 API (available in GemXpresso211 PK cards).
If you have an "is" kit, card and tools are limited to 512 bits. If you want to play
with "cryptoApplet" change install parameters to "00 01 01 10" to avoid unused objects
to be allocated.
The GSE Simulator is available for all your Crash Tests ;-)...
If you don't have "CryptoApplet" send me a request...
Regards, Christophe (GemXpresso RAD team).
