Description afan 2004-06-30 09:59:33 UTC 
When implement the xml signature and encryption, we need the convertors between
string( decimal string or hexadecimal string ) and big integer( ASN DER format
). Both of the xmlsec library and the crypto engine API do not provide the
correct convertors, they only support the conversion between string and small
integer( ASN DER format ), which is dangerous. At present, we also use a pair of
small integer convertors, they're numericStringToBigInteger and
bigIntegerToNumericString, we should patch the two methods if the correct
convertors appear.

That's your area.

Andrew, I assume you wanted to assign this task to yourself.
Comment 3 afan 2004-09-09 10:04:49 UTC 
The big number convertor use the xmlsec library apis. In its new version, xmlsec
provide a set of new convertion apis between string and biginteger.
