Example #1 openssl_open() example
<?php

// and our envelope key, both given to us by the sealer.
// fetch private key from file and ready it
$fp = fopen("/src/openssl-0.9.6/demos/sign/key.pem", "r");
$priv_key = fread($fp, 8192);
fclose($fp);
$pkeyid = openssl_get_privatekey($priv_key);
// decrypt the data and store it in $open
if (openssl_open($sealed, $open, $env_key, $pkeyid)) {
echo "here is the opened data: ", $open;
