[PATCH] OpenSSL CRL Support View as Markdown

Hello Moritz,

Hi,

I already asked for comments on inclusion of OpenSSL CRL support in
ext/openssl some time ago (I had a independend extension at this point).

Do you have a bug id please? If not please open one.

As I continued working on it I realized that making this an independend
extension makes me to reinvent/reimplement the wheel and makes it
impossible to have ext/openssl and the CRL support to integrate nicely,
so I wrote a patch to include it in ext/openssl.

In fact, having Marc Delling's PKCS#12 patch and mine applied makes it
possible to write basic but real PKI-CA applications in PHP, so I think
it would be nice to have this.

This patch is in the queue. There is a bug report about it. I will add
the pending patches to the next development branch for 5.x and HEAD
once 5.2.1 is out.

I know that there are not that many people who need this but I think
this is true for nearly the whole openssl extension except for the
stream wrapper. (maybe we should consider splitting it up?)

Even if not many people needs openssl functions, the needs are here
and it is a pain when a feature is missing.

You find a patch (hopefully I got your conding standards right ;))
attached, but I should take careful review because this actually is my
first work on PHP extensions and I'm also not used to writing C code.
I can/will provide a test (what kind of tests should I supply?) and
documentation when needed.

Thanks for patch!

Can you put it in a bug report so it will not get lost? And you will
be informed as soon as it is committed.

Regards,
