<h4 class="subsection">5.3.4 Reading objects</h4>

<p>All <acronym>PKCS</acronym> #11 objects are referenced by <acronym>GnuTLS</acronym> functions by
URLs as described in [<em>PKCS11URI</em>]. 
This allows for a consistent naming of objects across systems and applications
in the same system. For example a public
key on a smart card may be referenced as:
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example">pkcs11:token=Nikos;serial=307521161601031;model=PKCS%2315; \
manufacturer=EnterSafe;object=test1;type=public;\
id=32f153f3e37990b08624141077ca5dec2d15faed
</pre></div>

<p>while the smart card itself can be referenced as:
</p><div class="example">
<pre class="example">pkcs11:token=Nikos;serial=307521161601031;model=PKCS%2315;manufacturer=EnterSafe
</pre></div>

<p>Objects stored in a <acronym>PKCS</acronym> #11 token can typically be extracted
if they are not marked as sensitive. Usually only private keys are marked as
sensitive and cannot be extracted, while certificates and other data can
be retrieved. The functions that can be used to enumerate and access objects
are shown below.
