How would the engine be expected to pick up the IV, aside from the cipher

If you look at EVP_cipher_asn1_to_param() you'll see it calls
get_asn1_parameters in the EVP_CIPHER structure. This is supposed to be
set to
whatever function the EVP_CIPHER would use to decode the ASN1 and set the
IV
and parameters (if any).
The IV isn't passed into the context, the EVP_CIPHER should decode it and
pass
it into itself in whatever way is appropriate.
Some implementations don't bother to handle this case. This means they
will
work fine in SSL/TLS but will fail in ASN1 cases such as CMS.
Hi Steve,
I see that now, thanks. I will get the engine code checked out and fixed.
Thanks,
Carl
