I want to add a x509v3 extension so that after generating a certificate I should have the following in my extensions section,
Identifier: Basic Constraints - 2.5.29.19
critical: yes
Is CA:yes
I am using Protect Server Gold HSM to generate my keys. There I should give a extension file at the time of generating keys. Example for that is,
keyusage
{
keyCertSign,
noncritical
}
This will result the following extensions,
Identifier : Key Usage: - 2.5.29.32
Critical: no
KeyUsage:
Key CertSign
This extension adding was successfully created. But I am finding it difficult to have the above mentioned Basic Constraints extension. Please help
Thanks...

I think you are confused, its a development toolkit used for creating applications that work with the HSM.
