141.SH "DESCRIPTION"
142.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
143\&\fISMIME_write_PKCS7()\fR adds the appropriate \s-1MIME\s0 headers to a PKCS#7
144structure to produce an S/MIME message.
145.PP
146\&\fBout\fR is the \s-1BIO\s0 to write the data to. \fBp7\fR is the appropriate \fB\s-1PKCS7\s0\fR
147structure. If streaming is enabled then the content must be supplied in the
148\&\fBdata\fR argument. \fBflags\fR is an optional set of flags.
149.SH "NOTES"
150.IX Header "NOTES"
151The following flags can be passed in the \fBflags\fR parameter.
152.PP
153If \fB\s-1PKCS7_DETACHED\s0\fR is set then cleartext signing will be used,
154this option only makes sense for signedData where \fB\s-1PKCS7_DETACHED\s0\fR
155is also set when \fIPKCS7_sign()\fR is also called.
156.PP
157If the \fB\s-1PKCS7_TEXT\s0\fR flag is set \s-1MIME\s0 headers for type \fBtext/plain\fR
158are added to the content, this only makes sense if \fB\s-1PKCS7_DETACHED\s0\fR
159is also set.
160.PP
161If the \fB\s-1PKCS7_STREAM\s0\fR flag is set streaming is performed. This flag should
162only be set if \fB\s-1PKCS7_STREAM\s0\fR was also set in the previous call to
163\&\fIPKCS7_sign()\fR or \fB\f(BIPKCS7_encrypt()\fB\fR.
164.PP
165If cleartext signing is being used and \fB\s-1PKCS7_STREAM\s0\fR not set then
166the data must be read twice: once to compute the signature in \fIPKCS7_sign()\fR
167and once to output the S/MIME message.
168.PP
169If streaming is performed the content is output in \s-1BER\s0 format using indefinite
170length constructuted encoding except in the case of signed data with detached
171content where the content is absent and \s-1DER\s0 format is used.
172.SH "BUGS"
173.IX Header "BUGS"
174\&\fISMIME_write_PKCS7()\fR always base64 encodes PKCS#7 structures, there
175should be an option to disable this.
176.SH "RETURN VALUES"
177.IX Header "RETURN VALUES"
178\&\fISMIME_write_PKCS7()\fR returns 1 for success or 0 for failure.
