=head1 NAME
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
CMS_compress - create a CMS CompressedData structure
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
=head1 SYNOPSIS
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
#include <openssl/cms.h>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
CMS_ContentInfo *CMS_compress(BIO *in, int comp_nid, unsigned int flags);
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
CMS_compress() creates and returns a CMS CompressedData structure. B<comp_nid>
|
||
|
|
is the compression algorithm to use or B<NID_undef> to use the default
|
||
|
|
algorithm (zlib compression). B<in> is the content to be compressed.
|
||
|
|
B<flags> is an optional set of flags.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
=head1 NOTES
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The only currently supported compression algorithm is zlib using the NID
|
||
|
|
NID_zlib_compression.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If zlib support is not compiled into OpenSSL then CMS_compress() will return
|
||
|
|
an error.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If the B<CMS_TEXT> flag is set MIME headers for type B<text/plain> are
|
||
|
|
prepended to the data.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Normally the supplied content is translated into MIME canonical format (as
|
||
|
|
required by the S/MIME specifications) if B<CMS_BINARY> is set no translation
|
||
|
|
occurs. This option should be used if the supplied data is in binary format
|
||
|
|
otherwise the translation will corrupt it. If B<CMS_BINARY> is set then
|
||
|
|
B<CMS_TEXT> is ignored.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If the B<CMS_STREAM> flag is set a partial B<CMS_ContentInfo> structure is
|
||
|
|
returned suitable for streaming I/O: no data is read from the BIO B<in>.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The compressed data is included in the CMS_ContentInfo structure, unless
|
||
|
|
B<CMS_DETACHED> is set in which case it is omitted. This is rarely used in
|
||
|
|
practice and is not supported by SMIME_write_CMS().
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
=head1 NOTES
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If the flag B<CMS_STREAM> is set the returned B<CMS_ContentInfo> structure is
|
||
|
|
B<not> complete and outputting its contents via a function that does not
|
||
|
|
properly finalize the B<CMS_ContentInfo> structure will give unpredictable
|
||
|
|
results.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Several functions including SMIME_write_CMS(), i2d_CMS_bio_stream(),
|
||
|
|
PEM_write_bio_CMS_stream() finalize the structure. Alternatively finalization
|
||
|
|
can be performed by obtaining the streaming ASN1 B<BIO> directly using
|
||
|
|
BIO_new_CMS().
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Additional compression parameters such as the zlib compression level cannot
|
||
|
|
currently be set.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
=head1 RETURN VALUES
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
CMS_compress() returns either a CMS_ContentInfo structure or NULL if an error
|
||
|
|
occurred. The error can be obtained from ERR_get_error(3).
