Re: Getting raw key data requires wrapping with NULL algorithm only?

I think I've seen this mentioned previously, but just to confirm, in Tiger do I have to use the null wrapping to convert to a raw key?  Some old code I've got, which I thought worked previously, is expecting all wrapped keys to be raw, not just those null wrapped.  Was that the case previously, or is this code wrong on all counts?

Actually, it looks like the problem is my old code was expecting the wrapped key to have the format CSSM_KEYBLOB_RAW, whereas after wrapping it has [logically] CSSM_KEYBLOB_WRAPPED.  It seems I can still access the raw key data for the latter, anyway, so I guess my code is just wrong or out of date.

Since you also cannot wrap a wrapped key on Tiger, I guess CSSM_KEYBLOB_WRAPPED must be equivalent to CSSM_KEYBLOB_RAW, in terms of not containing just a handle to the key data.
