QCA Problems¶

• QCA Problems

There is a growing list of problems with QCA turning up in this project.

• Incomplete implementation of OpenSSL plugin
  The plugin is usable for most certificate-based problems (though those have some problems of their own, see below) but request signing is not yet implemented and has to be done using OpenSSL library calls directly.
• Wrong timezones in validity period.
  Certificates are created with correct timestamps for validity period but wrong timezones are returned on checking certificate validity period. QCA::Certificate::notValidBefore() and QCA::Certificate::notValidAfter return the UTC time value with timezone set to UTC, which is plain wrong.
