Known Bugs
""""""""""
Current version should be compiled using SWIG 1.3.27.
Using 1.3.28+ an error similar to may be generated by the compiler:
src\win32_pykcs11_wrap.cpp error C2440: 'static_cast' :
cannot convert from 'char *' to 'unsigned char *'
The precompiled wrapper included in distribution is being generated
using SWIG 1.3.27.
If in Windows the linker complains that the Python24_d.lib doesn't exists
Please edit the "SWIG-Install-Dir\Lib\python\python.swg" file and replace
following line:
#include "Python.h"
with following code:
#ifdef _DEBUG
#undef _DEBUG
#include "Python.h"
#define _DEBUG
#else
#include "Python.h"
#endif
This prevents the linker to try to link against the debug version of python lib
that doesn't come with the standard distribution.
History
"""""""
1.3.0 - July 2014, Ludovic Rousseau
- add Python3 support
1.2.4 - April 2012, Ludovic Rousseau
- improve epydoc documentation
- add pinpad support in C_Login() using pin=None
- add pinpad support in samples getinfo.py and dumpit.py
- add createObject()
1.2.3 - December 2010, Ludovic Rousseau
- Add new classes CK_SLOT_INFO, CK_INFO, CK_SESSION_INFO,
CK_MECHANISM_INFO and CK_TOKEN_INFO instead of the low level ones
to have a __repr__() method. It is now possible to just print an
object of these classes and have a human readable version.
- Add a new class CK_OBJECT_HANDLE() to replace the low level one
and have a __repr__() method for objects returned by findObjects()
- Move initToken() from class Session to class PyKCS11Lib and add a
slot parameter.
- Add generateKeyPair and destoryObject support in high level
interface
1.2.2 - June 2010, Ludovic Rousseau
Debug low level C_GenerateRandom
Add seedRandom() and generateRandom() in the high level API
1.2.1 - November 2008, Ludovic Rousseau
Use src/opensc/pkcs11.h instead of src/rsaref/* files since the
files from RSA are not free enough (no right to distribute modified
versions for example)
