Hello,

Correct me if I'm wrong, but my understanding of the C_FindObjectsInit
function in opensc is that it solely relies on the in-memory data structures
for the card content, which are built by the PKCS15 operations (either
emulated or native) during C_Initialize. In other words, C_FindObjectsInit
never reads off the file list from the card after initialization.

The card I am working on is not PKCS15 compliant and requires the user to be
authenticated before the card content can be enumerated. I wrote a PKCS15
emulation plugin (inspired from PIV), but I am facing a problem : as
C_FindObjectsInit only relies on the file enumeration performed during
C_Initialize (before user authentication), I cannot know the actual card
content, even after the user has authenticated.

Is there a way to force a "late" file enumeration? Does the only way to
solve this consists in hard coding the hypothetical card content (as it
seems to be done in PIV plugin)? Should I call C_FindObjectInit() when the
user authenticates (i.e., in mycard_pin_cmd), although it looks ugly? Did I
miss something?

Thanks in advance for your help,

Best regards,

Benoit
