[Trustedjava-support] reading tpm quote through native java/c# libraries

[Saurabh A. <tan...@gm...>]

Hi

I am using TrustedJava suite to generate TPM Quote and send across to
verifying party which is a non-TPM, non-Trousers, non-TrustedJava, C#
web service. Now I want to vaildate/verify the quote and I am worried
whether I can really do that without Trousers/JTSS support ??

more specific details :

I used the testsuite example of generating the quote, which outputs
"quoteBlob" of TcTssValidation type. Now will I be able to read this
quoteBlob on non-Trousers, non-Trusted java library service, using say
"native c#/java libraries" ??



regards
Saurabh

But, thats exactly i am trying to do. I want to verify quote without
using trousers/jTSS on a non-tpm machine. but quote outputs me
TcTssValidation type quoteBlob, TcTcpaPubkey public key and TcBlobData
type nonce.

and if i cant cast them under normal types in other platforms , would
mean that you can not do quote verification without trousers ?
