<modulesummary> API module for public key infrastructure.</modulesummary>
<description>
<p>This module provides functions to handle public key infrastructure
from RFC 3280 - X.509 certificates (will later be upgraded to RFC 5280)
and some parts of the PKCS-standard.
Currently this application is mainly used by the new
ssl implementation. The API is yet under construction
and only a few of the functions are currently documented and thereby supported.

<title>COMMON DATA TYPES </title>
<note><p>All records used in this manual
<!-- except #policy_tree_node{} -->
are generated from asn1 specifications
and are documented in the User's Guide. See <seealso
marker="public_key_records">Public key records</seealso> and <seealso
marker="cert_records">X.509 Certificate records</seealso>.
</p></note>
<p>Use the following include directive to get access to the
records and constant macros described here and in the User's Guide.</p>
