5 DSA_generate_key - generate DSA key pair
9 #include <openssl/dsa.h>
11 int DSA_generate_key(DSA *a);
15 DSA_generate_key() expects B<a> to contain DSA parameters. It generates
16 a new key pair and stores it in B<a-E<gt>pub_key> and B<a-E<gt>priv_key>.
18 The PRNG must be seeded prior to calling DSA_generate_key().
22 DSA_generate_key() returns 1 on success, 0 otherwise.
23 The error codes can be obtained by L<ERR_get_error(3)|ERR_get_error(3)>.
27 L<dsa(3)|dsa(3)>, L<ERR_get_error(3)|ERR_get_error(3)>, L<rand(3)|rand(3)>,
28 L<DSA_generate_parameters(3)|DSA_generate_parameters(3)>
32 DSA_generate_key() is available since SSLeay 0.8.
