I want to install all I need to use libp11 and use libp11.
What is my environment and needs:
I work on Windows 10, 64 bits. I add package with pacman linux command on my mingw32 terminal (msys64 version of 2022/09/04). I work on a Qt Creator editor and I have a .pro file to configure my Qt project. I want to develop a C++ module for my application which use libp11 to get the Yubikey bin number and decrypt file. Why I use a mingw32 terminal and not the mingw64, because, for the moment, the project is always in develop in QT 4.8.
What I do:
I read the README file and follow the installation step of the INSTALL file (first I follow the MinGW / MSYS chapter, then I follow the MSYS2 chapter.) I do much more, but I don't remember every thing and I go in many wrong ways.
My problems and questions
I try to follow the examples find in GitHub.
I help me with the site cpp.hotexemples.com to find the second parameter for the PKCS11_CTX_load
function. I find the st_engine_ctx
structure on this project.
The project file:
TEMPLATE = app
CONFIG += console c++17
CONFIG -= app_bundle
CONFIG += qt
LIBS += \
-lp11 \
-lssl \
-lcrypto
SOURCES += \
TestYubikey.cpp \
main.cpp
HEADERS += \
TestYubikey.h
The header file:

};
#endif // TESTYUBIKEY_H
The source file:
//libp11 is a wrapper library for PKCS#11 modules with OpenSSL interface
#include "TestYubikey.h"
#include <iostream>
TestYubikey::TestYubikey()
{
// Create a new libp11 context
PKCS11_CTX *ctx = PKCS11_CTX_new();
std::cout << "ctx = " << ctx << std::endl;
/* load pkcs #11 module */
int rc = PKCS11_CTX_load(ctx, "C:\\msys64\\mingw32\\lib\\engines-1_1\\pkcs11.dll"); //I test with "libpkcs11.dll" and "pkcs11.dll" too.
std::cout << "rc = " << rc << std::endl;
if (rc == -1)
{
std::cout << "Loading pkcs11 engine failed";
unsigned long error_code = ERR_get_error();
const char* error_detail = ERR_reason_error_string(error_code);
std::cout << " (" << error_code << ") : " << std::string(error_detail) << std::endl;
}
else
{
std::cout << "Loading pkcs11 engine worked !" << std::endl;
}
}
My output console show:
