Novell® Certificate Server™ Library for C Version 2 furnishes you with a directory-centered, public key infrastructure to create, manage, and access X.509 certificates. The API is provided entirely in the C programming language to provide the best cross-platform support for all platforms integrating eDirectory.
NOTE:The NDK: Novell Certificate Server Classes for Java also are available.
This API is currently supported on all platforms supported by eDirectory 8.7.x For specific configuration and implementation requirements, see Novell eDirectory 8.7 System Requirements.
Novell Certificate Server interfaces, prototypes, and data types are defined in the Novell header files npki.h and nverify.h. As in all earlier versions, the API is subject to change.
NOTE:When using this API, all functions should be treated as blocking functions.
