DF names shall be globally uniqe within a given card. Selecting by DF name should be made on card level instead of current DF level. A new list has been inroduced as a static attribute of MF in order to track each named DF. * Prevent prettyprint from infinite recursion By adding a possible self-pointer to MF prettyprint_anything function got into an infinite loop. Printing of named DFs has been cut off.
Virtual Smart Card
Virtual Smart Card emulates a smart card and makes it accessible through PC/SC. Currently the Virtual Smart Card supports the following types of smart cards:
- Generic ISO-7816 smart card including secure messaging
- German electronic identity card (nPA) with complete support for EAC (PACE, TA, CA)
- Electronic passport (ePass/MRTD) with support for BAC
- Cryptoflex smart card (incomplete)
The vpcd is a smart card reader driver for PCSC-Lite and the windows smart card service. It allows smart card applications to access the vpicc through the PC/SC API. By default vpcd opens slots for communication with multiple vpicc's on localhost on port 35963 and port 35964. But the |vpicc| does not need to run on the same machine as the vpcd, they can connect over the internet for example.
Although the Virtual Smart Card is a software emulator, you can use pcsc-relay to make it accessible to an external contact-less smart card reader.
