Getting codesign to compile on linux/windows

[Cauê Waneck]

Hello!

I've been looking for solutions to be able to sign ios applications on Linux (Windows too would be nice ;) ), and I've come across this great project of yours.

I've been able to get an iOs toolchain working on linux by following the steps at http://code.google.com/p/ios-toolchain-based-on-clang-for-linux/. But sadly the executables produced require a jailbroken device, since codesign wasn't ported. Fortunately, the codesign app is open-source (see https://github.com/Apple-FOSS-Mirror/security_systemkeychain/blob/master/src/codesign.cpp ).

Could Cocotron be used to help build this application on Linux? What would be the steps needed to get this running? I found an earlier post in the list commenting that maybe building this Security module wouldn't be too hard. Can anyone share any tips about it?

Thank you very much!

The Security framework is largely a wrapper on top of encryption libraries such as openssl, you'd probably want to build it out with a known stable library, either creating the Sec* calls yourself or just using openssl, etc. directly. Keep us posted, interesting stuff.

Hi Christopher!

Thank you for your insight. It does seem like a good option to avoid the Security framework by replacing them with openssl. The codesign code seem pretty manageable, I'll have a go at this approach later.

Will keep you posted :)

Thanks!
