CMS_FINAL(3ossl)                    OpenSSL                   CMS_FINAL(3ossl)



NAME

       CMS_final, CMS_final_digest - finalise a CMS_ContentInfo structure


SYNOPSIS

        #include <openssl/cms.h>

        int CMS_final(CMS_ContentInfo *cms, BIO *data, BIO *dcont, unsigned int flags);
        int CMS_final_digest(CMS_ContentInfo *cms, const unsigned char *md,
                             unsigned int mdlen, BIO *dcont, unsigned int flags);


DESCRIPTION

       CMS_final(3) finalises the structure cms. Its purpose is to perform any
       operations necessary on cms (digest computation for example) and set
       the appropriate fields. The parameter data contains the content to be
       processed. The dcont parameter contains a BIO to write content to after
       processing: this is only used with detached data and will usually be
       set to NULL.

       CMS_final_digest() finalises the structure cms using a pre-computed
       digest, rather than computing the digest from the original data.


NOTES

       These functions will normally be called when the CMS_PARTIAL flag is
       used. It should only be used when streaming is not performed because
       the streaming I/O functions perform finalisation operations internally.

       To sign a pre-computed digest, CMS_sign(3) or CMS_sign_ex() is called
       with the data parameter set to NULL before the CMS structure is
       finalised with the digest provided to CMS_final_digest() in binary
       form.  When signing a pre-computed digest, the security relies on the
       digest and its computation from the original message being trusted.


RETURN VALUES

       CMS_final(3) and CMS_final_digest() return 1 for success or 0 for
       failure.
