This can be readily produced by storing the S/MIME signed message in a memory \s-1BIO\s0 and passing it to \&\fBPKCS7_encrypt()\fR. .PP The following flags can be passed in the \fBflags\fR parameter. .PP If the \fB\s-1PKCS7_TEXT\s0\fR flag is set \s-1MIME\s0 headers for type \fBtext/plain\fR are prepended to the data. .PP Normally the supplied content is translated into \s-1MIME\s0 canonical format (as required by the S/MIME specifications) if \fB\s-1PKCS7_BINARY\s0\fR is set no translation occurs. This option should be used if the supplied data is in binary format otherwise the translation will corrupt it. If \fB\s-1PKCS7_BINARY\s0\fR is set then \&\fB\s-1PKCS7_TEXT\s0\fR is ignored. .PP If the \fB\s-1PKCS7_STREAM\s0\fR flag is set a partial \fB\s-1PKCS7\s0\fR structure is output suitable for streaming I/O: no data is read from the \s-1BIO\s0 \fBin\fR. .SH "NOTES" .IX Header "NOTES" If the flag \fB\s-1PKCS7_STREAM\s0\fR is set the returned \fB\s-1PKCS7\s0\fR structure is \fBnot\fR complete and outputting its contents via a function that does not properly finalize the \fB\s-1PKCS7\s0\fR structure will give unpredictable results. .PP Several functions including \fBSMIME_write_PKCS7()\fR, \fBi2d_PKCS7_bio_stream()\fR, \&\fBPEM_write_bio_PKCS7_stream()\fR finalize the structure. Alternatively finalization can be performed by obtaining the streaming \s-1ASN1\s0 \fB\s-1BIO\s0\fR directly using \&\fBBIO_new_PKCS7()\fR. .SH "RETURN VALUES" .IX Header "RETURN VALUES" \&\fBPKCS7_encrypt()\fR returns either a \s-1PKCS7\s0 structure or \s-1NULL\s0 if an error occurred. The error can be obtained from \fBERR_get_error\fR\|(3). .SH "SEE ALSO" .IX Header "SEE ALSO" \&\fBERR_get_error\fR\|(3), \fBPKCS7_decrypt\fR\|(3) .SH "HISTORY" .IX Header "HISTORY" The \fB\s-1PKCS7_STREAM\s0\fR flag was added in OpenSSL 1.0.0. .SH "COPYRIGHT" .IX Header "COPYRIGHT" Copyright 2002\-2016 The OpenSSL Project Authors.
