Convert BER encoded RSA private key to XML (String class)

[Introduced in Sirius Mods 8.0]

RSAPrivateKeyToXmlDoc converts a string (Longstring) that contains an RSA-generated private key to an XmlDoc. DER (Distinguished Encoding Rules), a subset of BER (Basic Encoding Rules, provide a way to uniquely encode an Abstract Syntax Notation One (ASN.1) type value as a string of eight-bit octets.

Syntax

%doc = string:RSAPrivateKeyToXmlDoc Throws InvalidBerData

Syntax terms

%doc An XmlDoc object variable to contain the decoded value of the method object, string.
string A DER encoded string that contains the contents of a digital certificate.

Note: This method fails if the XML representation of string is longer than 650 characters.

Exceptions

RSAPrivateKeyToXmlDoc can throw the following exception:

InvalidBerData
If the method encounters non-BER-conforming data, properties of the exception object may indicate the position and description of the error.

Usage notes

  • RSAPrivateKeyToXmlDoc is very similar to DerToXmlDoc, except that RSAPrivateKeyToXmlDoc understands the semantics of the private key tags, so it provides more meaningful XML element names.
  • RSAPrivateKeyToXmlDoc is a complete implementation of the PKCS standards for private key syntax.
  • Currently, no method is available to produce a DER stream from an XmlDoc nor to validate the signature on a certificate.
  • This method's limit of an XML representation of 650 characters means that it cannot process a 4096-bit key (which requires 1024 hex characters). Fortunately, 4K keys are still uncommon.

Examples

In the following example, the PemToString method loads Longstring %ls with the contents of an RSA private key. RSAPrivateKeyToXmlDoc then converts the Longstring to an XmlDoc whose contents are printed:
