Bad!  You should use RSA process on card to sign, not retrieve keys.

Hi all,
we are using OpenSSL with smart card. We made hard intervention into OpenSSL
code, that enable use smard card as a key file.
When I use RSA key in file I use standard file, if I want use card, I use
special file with some setting in this file.
I simply call PEM_read_bio_RSAPrivateKey() with key_file or card_file and
use EVP_RSA.

I think this will be good idea for select key from engine or some similar
action.
Bad is, to many intervention into many file are needed. But the result is
perfect and simple for use.

My question is: Is some easier way to achieve this? (I meam, use card_file
as key_file.)

Martin
