Which address do you prefer? I need the PKCS12 functions and the ability to extract public keys, so I was thinking I'd add both, but I don't want to step on anybody's toes. I've never played around in the PHP internals before so I don't know how things work around here. Any advice? --- ## #22943 — Wez Furlong — 2006-04-25T05:40:33+00:00 URL: https://externals.io/message/22932#22943 · In reply to: #22939 > Wez Furlong wrote: > > […] > > Which address do you prefer?

Any advice? Just have a go at making it work. If you get stuck, try to find some other code that does a similar thing to what you want. If that fails, try asking for help on IRC at #php.pecl on EFNet. If you don't do IRC, or no one is around, then you can also try asking for help on pecl-dev@lists.php.net. It's worth reading though Sara Golemon's extension writing articles on zend.com before you begin. There are also a number of conference presentation slides hanging around the 'net written by Wez Furlong and Marcus Boerger, among others. Once you're happy with the changes you've made, send a diff to the mailing list (and Cc: me) and we'll see about integrating it into CVS. There's a README.SUBMITTING-PATCH text file in the PHP source root that should describe this part of the process. Good luck! --Wez. --- ## #22965 — Brandon Fosdick — 2006-04-26T01:05:43+00:00 URL: https://externals.io/message/22932#22965 · In reply to: #22943 Wez Furlong wrote: > Like this: > http://us2.php.net/manual/en/function.openssl-pkey-get-public.php > or something else?

I'd welcome a patch for that too. --Wez. > Wez Furlong wrote: > > […] > > Close, but I need them in PEM format. --- ## #22986 — Brandon Fosdick — 2006-04-27T04:22:25+00:00 URL: https://externals.io/message/22932#22986 · In reply to: #22971 Wez Furlong wrote: > Ah yes. > http://us3.php.net/manual/en/function.openssl-pkey-export.php almost > does what you want... but only works on private keys. > > I'd welcome a patch for that too. Do you want separate patches for PKCS12 and PEM keys or should it be all one patch? Has anything changed that would require me to work from the CVS version or can I stick with the 5.1.2 release? --- ## #22989 — Wez Furlong — 2006-04-27T08:03:52+00:00 URL: https://externals.io/message/22932#22989 · In reply to: #22986 Just one patch will be fine. We usually accept patches for new features against HEAD of CVS only, but with the unicode development effort that is ongoing in HEAD, you might find it a little bit harder to do that. My suggestion is to make the patch for 5.1.2 and make sure it all works first, and then have a go at making it against HEAD. If you're lucky, the same patch will apply against both versions. If not, there will be a few minor differences for unicode. I'll be happy to see either or both patches and we can take it from there. --Wez. > Wez Furlong wrote: > > […] > > Do you want separate patches for PKCS12 and PEM keys or should it be all one patch? > > Has anything changed that would require me to work from the CVS version or can I stick with the 5.1.2 release?
