Description joachim.lingner 2005-09-05 10:42:17 UTC 
The attribut com::sun::star::security::XCertificateExtension::ExtensionValue
returns a sequence of bytes. This sequences cannot be used in UNO unless one
knows the implementation of the service. For example, on Windows one would have
to cast the bytes to a structure CRYPT_OBJID_BLOB to process the data. When the
implementation uses NSS then this would fail because it uses other structures.

One needs to define proper UNO structures for X.509 extensions, so that the
information can be used without using platform - specific APIs.
The implementation of the service DocumentDigitalSignatures must be adopted
accordingly.

The XCertificateExtension interface SHOULD not be published until that is fixed.
