B<pass> is the passphrase to use. +If successful the private key will be written to B<*pkey>, the corresponding +certificate to B<*cert> and any additional certificates to B<*ca>. + +=head1 NOTES + +The parameters B<pkey> and B<cert> cannot be B<NULL>. B<ca> can be <NULL> +in which case additional certificates will be discarded. B<*ca> can also +be a valid STACK in which case additional certificates are appended to +B<*ca>. If B<*ca> is B<NULL> a new STACK will be allocated. + +The B<friendlyName> and B<localKeyID> attributes (if present) on each certificate +will be stored in the B<alias> and B<keyid> attributes of the B<X509> structure. + +=head1 BUGS + +Only a single private key and corresponding certificate is returned by this function. +More complex PKCS#12 files with multiple private keys will only return the first +match. + +Only B<friendlyName> and B<localKeyID> attributes are currently stored in certificates. +Other attributes are discarded. + +Attributes currently cannot be store in the private key B<EVP_PKEY> structure. + +=head1 SEE ALSO + +L<d2i_PKCS12(3)|d2i_PKCS12(3)> + +=head1 HISTORY + +PKCS12_parse was added in OpenSSL 0.9.3 + +=cut |
