B is the private key of the recipient, B is the +recipients certificate, B is a BIO to write the content to and +B is an optional set of flags. + +=head1 NOTES + +OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() (or equivalent) should be called before using this +function or errors about unknown algorithms will occur. + +Although the recipients certificate is not needed to decrypt the data it is needed +to locate the appropriate (of possible several) recipients in the PKCS#7 structure. + +The following flags can be passed in the B parameter. + +If the B flag is set MIME headers for type B are deleted +from the content. If the content is not of type B then an error is +returned. + +=head1 RETURN VALUES + +PKCS7_decrypt() returns either 1 for success or 0 for failure. +The error can be obtained from ERR_get_error(3) + +=head1 BUGS + +PKCS7_decrypt() must be passed the correct recipient key and certificate. It would +be better if it could look up the correct key and certificate from a database. + +The lack of single pass processing and need to hold all data in memory as +mentioned in PKCS7_sign() also applies to PKCS7_verify(). + +=head1 SEE ALSO + +L, L + +=head1 HISTORY + +PKCS7_decrypt() was added to OpenSSL 0.9.5 + +=cut
