In ASP you would simply use a COM component, not do it using script. The
Crypto API can do the functions you need and jacketing them with a component
would be relatively simple using VB or Visual C++, or you could buy a
component such as ASPEncrypt. Same for the socket communications.
If I go forward with OpenSRS I intend to do it with ASP. I enrolled as a
reseller after studying the OpenSRS website and finding reference to a DLL
client implementation, which I was going to jacket with a COM object to use
from ASP. After being on the discussion list for a few days I realize that
there appears to be no one at OpenSRS working on it yet (is there?).
I have looked over the API but haven't studied the reference client enough
to determine if I want to do it myself. At the moment it is more of a
business decision than a technical one...seems like there are dozens of
resellers singed up.
>From what I have seen I would probably implement the entire client in C++ in
a component and call that from ASP. I haven't been around long enough to
know why the interface is not just a set of HTTP posts using SSL, seems like
that would have been easier, and more universal.
