The global variable "Database" of class xca_db
can be used by any other class to access. No need
to provide it.
The "xca_db" class managed the "database_model" pointer.
Accessing the name of the current database has been unified.
If we have a QByteArray (ba) and must provide it to
a BIO* expecting OpenSSL function, the following
construct provides it: BioByteArray(ba).ro()
directly providing the QByteArray buffer as BIO
It also supports mixed writes:
BIO_write(bba, buf, size)
bba += QByteArray
Always only use forward slash /
Drop all "QDir::separator()" and "nativeSeparator()"
functions. Only use it where filenames are displayed for the user.
New classes:
- database_model: Manage the database tables (keys, req, cert, crl, templ)
extracted from widgets/MW_database.cpp
- arguments: parse commandline, dynamically create help text
Add settings class to access the settings table in the database
Cache values and improve database writes.
Options dialog simplified
Replace getSetting / storeSetting
Unpack option flags to rows in the settings
The DbTransaction class automatically rolls back when the scope
is left (destructor) and no commit happenned.
Every transaction begin will increment the counter,
each commit/rollback will decrement it. Only if all transactions
finished with a commit, a final database commit will be performed.
This is a large squash of many small commits.
Allow porting data from the legacy format to SQL.
Store Binaries base64 encoded and use db->transaction
Update password hash to be 8000 x SHA512 with 8 byte Salt
Add revocations table and fixup CRL generation
Add comment and insertion date columns
Fix column saving, remove trust, add XcaDialog
Allow changing the internal name and comment in Cert/Req details view
Extend Comment functionality, Replace About.ui by XcaDialog.ui
The API changed heavily. New functions arrived, old functions
disappeared and many structures became opaque.
This version of the patch implements pkcs11 signing as follows:
- openssl < 1.0.0: rsa & dsa without engine
- openssl 1.0.x: rsa, dsa & ec with engine
- openssl >= 1.1.0: rsa, dsa & ec without engine
In the operation, we therefore also gain implementation of dsa signing for openssl < 1.0.0 (ec disabled because EC_KEY_METHOD was not yet invented!).
I've given up trying to use a PKEY_ENGINE with openssl 1.1: seems not possible anymore.
I've succeeded compiling the patched xca with openssl 0.9.8n, 1.0.2j and 1.1.0e.
I've successfully tested pkcs11 signing using softhsm with openssl 1.0.2j and 1.1.0e.
The patch also removes gcc7 new warnings.
