Subject: Re: get CA name from user certificate


Have you tried to use the code without modifications using the same
certificate?
If you need to load the X509 certificate use following code. Moreover
you may find useful information to call these PEM routines in the manual
page(%man PEM).
Cheers,
Kaushalye

<Code for loading certificate>
    BIO *in;
    if ((in=BIO_new_file(filename,"r")) == NULL)
    {
        printf("Error reading the file\n");
        return -1;
    }
    /*Read certificate*/
    PEM_read_bio_X509(in, &cert,NULL,NULL);
    if(!cert)
    {
        printf("Error creating the certificate\n");
        return -1;
    }
    BIO_reset(in);
    BIO_free(in);
</Code for loading certificate>
