This document is a Mac OS X manual page. Manual pages are a command-line technology for providing documentation. You can view these manual pages locally using the man(1) command. These manual pages come from many different sources, and thus, have a variety of writing styles. For more information about the manual page format, see the manual page for manpages(5). |
RSA_new(3) OpenSSL RSA_new(3) NAME RSA_new, RSA_free - allocate and free RSA objects SYNOPSIS #include <openssl/rsa.h> RSA * RSA_new(void); void RSA_free(RSA *rsa); DESCRIPTION RSA_new() allocates and initializes an RSA structure. It is equivalent to calling RSA_new_method(NULL). RSA_free() frees the RSA structure and its components. The key is erased before the memory is returned to the system. RETURN VALUES If the allocation fails, RSA_new() returns NULL and sets an error code that can be obtained by ERR_get_error(3). Otherwise it returns a pointer to the newly allocated structure. RSA_free() returns no value. SEE ALSO ERR_get_error(3), rsa(3), RSA_generate_key(3), RSA_new_method(3) HISTORY RSA_new() and RSA_free() are available in all versions of SSLeay and OpenSSL. 0.9.7l 2002-09-25 RSA_new(3) |
