CDSA$ISSUER.EXE

  The issuer utility is used to create a set of functions that 
  are embedded into CSSM, or are used by EISL. A CDSA application  
  developer needs to create only the EISL_RetrieveSelfCheckKey 
  function. The other functions noted here are applicable only for 
  CDSA vendors (in this case, HP). 

  This program generally is called by 
  CDSA_SYSDIR:[SIGN]CDSA$GEN_CERTS.COM.

SYNOPSIS

  issuer option certfile codefile functionname


OPTIONS

  option
     A code that defines the function to be created. 
     Specify one of the following values:

       -i Creates a function that returns an issuer name from 
          the certificate.
       -s Creates a function that returns a signer name from 
          the certificate.
       -k Creates a function that returns a trusted public key.


  NOTE: A CDSA application developer who is creating the 
  EISL_RetrieveSelfCheckKey function should specify -k.  
  The other codes are used only by CDSA vendors who are building CDSA 
  itself rather than a CDSA application or service provider module. 

  certfile
     A text file that contains the name of the certificate to be used.

  codefile
     The file to which the generated function is written.

  functionname
     Name of the function to be generated. One of the following:
     * cssm_GetIntegrityRootKeys (cssm_GetExportRootKeys for export)
     * cssm_GetIntegrityRootNames (cssm_GetExportRootNames for export)
     * EISL_RetrieveSelfCheckKey

  NOTE: CDSA application developers need to create only the 
  EISL_RetrieveSelfCheckKey function (the last item in the following 
  list). The full set of functions is listed here to provide a 
  complete overview of the issuer utility. The other functions are 
  applicable only for CDSA vendors. Those who want to learn more 
  about certificate chains can refer to the Intel CDSA Manifest 
  Signing Tools User's Guide.
