C++ Library for accessing PCSC-lite, OpenSSL, PKCS#11 |
|
===================================================== |
|
|
|
The Libraries for accessing smartcard tokens are written in ugly C, |
|
moving around pointers with no memory management. This library |
|
provides a simple and nice C++ wrapper around these libraries, so that |
|
programmers can concentrate on functionality. It offers general |
|
support for PCSC-lite, OpenSSL, PKCS#11, plus specific functionality |
|
for the SuisseID. |

Modules |
|
------- |
|
|
|
|
|
There are several [Namespaces](namespaces.html) which correspond to the [Modules](modules.html) that are implemented. All libraries libraries deal with hardware token cryptography. Some libraries are just clean C++-wrappers around the original libraries that are implemented in ugliest C manner. The warppers care about memory- and resource-management and implement a simple and easy C++ interface, including std::string for binary data and exceptions for error handling. |

|
|
The library contains the following [modules](modules.html): |
|
- [Siemens CardOS 4.4](group__gcardos.html): |
|
APDU access to Siemens CardOS 4.4. |
|
CardOS is an operating system on Siemens smart cards. |
|
- [Cryptoki API / PKCS#11](group__gcryptoki.html): |
|
C++ wrapper around higher level PKCS#11 smart card access. |
|
Cryptoki, also known as PKCS#11 is a higher level API. |
|
- [OpenSSL](group__gopenssl.html): |
|
C++ wrapper around some OpenSSL functionality. |
|
OpenSSL is a high level cryptography library. |
|
- [PCSC-Lite](group__gpcsc.html): |
|
C++ wrapper around PCSC-Lite smart card reader access library. |
|
PCSC-Lite is a middleware to access a smart card using SCard API. |
|
- [SuisseID](group__gsuisseid.html): |
|
High level functions for the SuisseID hardware token. |
|
SuisseID is a standardized digital identity in Switzerland. |
|
- [Crypto](group__gcrypto,html): |
|
Crypto implements some auxiliary crypto funtions. |
