Re: problems with making Encrypted mail using SFL

Sorry,  I now have found it's for  the curr pointer in the class CSM_ListC is initialized to NULL.  
Now I add a statement :         ppcontentEncryptionAlgID->SetCurrToFirst();    
just after the statement    CSM_Alg *pAlg=ppcontentEncryptionAlgID->FirstL();
and now it's solved and output 17 content encryption algorithm oid :
  id_aes128_ECB,2.16.840.1.101.3.4.1.1
id_aes128_CBC,2.16.840.1.101.3.4.1.2
id_aes128_OFB,2.16.840.1.101.3.4.1.3
id_aes128_CFB,2.16.840.1.101.3.4.1.4
id_aes192_ECB,2.16.840.1.101.3.4.1.21
id_aes192_CBC,2.16.840.1.101.3.4.1.22
id_aes192_OFB,2.16.840.1.101.3.4.1.23
id_aes192_CFB,2.16.840.1.101.3.4.1.24
id_aes256_ECB,2.16.840.1.101.3.4.1.41
id_aes256_CBC,2.16.840.1.101.3.4.1.42
id_aes256_OFB,2.16.840.1.101.3.4.1.43
id_aes256_CFB,2.16.840.1.101.3.4.1.44
1.2.840.113549.3.7,1.2.840.113549.3.7
1.2.840.113549.1.9.16.3.6,1.2.840.113549.1.9.16.3.6
1.2.840.113549.3.2,1.2.840.113549.3.2
1.2.840.113549.1.9.16.3.7,1.2.840.113549.1.9.16.3.7
1.3.14.3.2.7,1.3.14.3.2.7
but in the section  2.7.1.1 of RFC 2633 it says:  
   If the sending agent has received a set of capabilities from the
   recipient for the message the agent is about to encrypt, then the
   sending agent SHOULD use that information by selecting the first
   capability in the list (that is, the capability most preferred by the
   intended recipient) for which the sending agent knows how to encrypt.

does it mean that i should choose the first algorithm   "id_aes128_ECB,2.16.840.1.101.3.4.1.1"?
if not, where can i get the set of capabilities from the recipient?

sincerely,
Wooce.

  hi,   
  here is my program now:
   CSM_AppLogin AppLogin;
   CSM_AlgLst *ppdigestAlgID = new CSM_AlgLst();
   CSM_AlgLst *ppdigestEncryptionAlgID = new CSM_AlgLst();
   CSM_AlgLst *ppkeyEncryptionAlgID = new CSM_AlgLst();
   CSM_AlgLst *ppcontentEncryptionAlgID = new CSM_AlgLst();
   char *dllname="libsm_free3DLL";
   char *args="sm_free3DLL ./21cn.pfx 123456";
   AppLogin.AddLogin(dllname,args);        // call AddLogin() function
   CSM_CSInst *pInst;
   CSM_OID contentEOID(rc2_cbc);  //   OID  is 1.2.840.113549.3.2

  //  testing process begin here....
   CSM_Alg rc2Alg(contentEOID);
   pInst = AppLogin.FindCSInstAlgIds(NULL,NULL,NULL,&rc2Alg);
   if( pInst==NULL)
    cout<<"no rc2 algorithm found!";
   else
    cout<<"find rc2 algorithm instance!";

    pInst->GetAlgIDs(ppdigestAlgID,ppdigestEncryptionAlgID,ppkeyEncryptionAlgID,ppcontentEncryptionAlgID);
    CSM_Alg *pAlg=ppcontentEncryptionAlgID->FirstL();
    while( pAlg!=NULL )
    {
     cout<<pAlg->GetId()->GetOIDDescription()<<","<<pAlg->GetId()->GetChar()<<"\n";
     pAlg = ppcontentEncryptionAlgID->GoNext();
    }
  //    end of testing process

   smEncryptMsg.SetContentEncryptOID(ppcontentEncryptionAlgID->FirstL()->GetId());


    but it still report "no instance supports requested cont encr alg",   and the testing process output: 
  find rc2 algorithm instance!Instance:sha_1,1.3.14.3.2.26
  id_dsa,1.2.840.10040.4.1
  rsa,2.5.8.1.1
  id_aes128_ECB,2.16.840.1.101.3.4.1.1

  why I got the content encryption oid as  id_aes128_ECB(2.16.840.1.101.3.4.1.1)   instead  of   rc2_cbc(1.2.840.113549.3.2) from the 
  instance gained by FindCSInstAlgIds(NULL,NULL,NULL,&rc2Alg) ?    it seems  very strange.
  How should I  change the program?   I  don't want to change the last statement  to  smEncryptMsg.SetContentEncryptOID(&contentEOID);
  I want to use the content encryption algorithm specified in the pfx file "21cn.pfx".

    Thank you and have a nice day.

  Wooce.
