Re: [xmlsec] xmlsec-mscrypto code review

[Aleksey Sanin]

For the record: I found why I had this error. A driver for one of my smart card readers uses OpenSSL. At some point I had to had two readers on that box and the only solution was to install two copies of the driver and do some black magic in registry. At some point, I have upgraded the reader driver but I did upgrade only one copy because I forgot about the second one by that time :). It turns out that these drivers registered themselves in MS Crypto for keys and certificates search. The test that gave me this error did a search for a cert (or may be validated a cert - I am not sure which operation caused that error). When I executed this test it loaded some driver dlls in the *current process* address space (don't ask me why it is needed if the driver is already sitting in memory). Unfortunately, the new (upgraded) and old (forgotten) drivers were linked agains different OpenSSL versions. Thus one of them had problems using the OpenSSL dll loaded for another one. Simple un-install of the old driver solved the issue. Aleksey 10) Before (and after) the change I am getting an error "The oridinal 1810 could not be located in the dynamic link library LIBEAY32.dll" in a message dialog when executing one of x509 tests. I guess it's something with my environment but if anyone can save me time for investigation I would appreciate this. libeay32.dll is the OpenSSL. Something links to it still, perhaps xmlsec utility has a call or three left?
