NAME

i2d_PKCS7_bio_stream - output PKCS7 structure in BER format.

SYNOPSIS

 #include <openssl/pkcs7.h>

 int i2d_PKCS7_bio_stream(BIO *out, PKCS7 *p7, BIO *data, int flags);

DESCRIPTION

i2d_PKCS7_bio_stream() outputs a structure in format.

It is otherwise identical to the function SMIME_write_PKCS7().

NOTES

This function is effectively a version of the d2i_PKCS7_bio() supporting streaming.

BUGS

The prefix ``i2d'' is arguably wrong because the function outputs format.

RETURN VALUES

i2d_PKCS7_bio_stream() returns 1 for success or 0 for failure.
