I am interested in leveraging the following three functions: ENGINE_load_private_key() ENGINE_load_public_key() ENGINE_load_certificate() Unfortunately, the latter is missing. This was mentioned in a recent thread on this list as well (see http://www.mail-archive.com/openssl-users at openssl.org/msg77566.html). Is it planned for any future release? The former two functions are present though and I was looking for their EVP-level counterparts to access them in the proper way. Apparently, those do not exist either. Previously, I was under the impression that the EVP API exposes all engine-implemented functions. Are these EVP_load_xxx functions missing from EVP because they are "todo in a future release" or are they omitted by design? By the way, I did find functions in apps/apps.c called load_key(), load_pubkey() and load_cert(). The look quite like the EVP-level functions I was expecting. Thanks, Reinier
