| =head1 NAME |
| |
| RSA_new, RSA_free - allocate and free RSA objects |
| |
| =head1 SYNOPSIS |
| |
| #include <openssl/rsa.h> |
| |
| The following functions have been deprecated since OpenSSL 3.0, and can be |
| hidden entirely by defining B<OPENSSL_API_COMPAT> with a suitable version value, |
| see L<openssl_user_macros(7)>: |
| |
| RSA *RSA_new(void); |
| |
| void RSA_free(RSA *rsa); |
| |
| =head1 DESCRIPTION |
| |
| RSA_new() allocates and initializes an B<RSA> structure. It is equivalent to |
| calling RSA_new_method(NULL). |
| |
| RSA_free() frees the B<RSA> structure and its components. The key is |
| erased before the memory is returned to the system. |
| If B<rsa> is NULL nothing is done. |
| |
| =head1 RETURN VALUES |
| |
| If the allocation fails, RSA_new() returns B<NULL> and sets an error |
| code that can be obtained by L<ERR_get_error(3)>. Otherwise it returns |
| a pointer to the newly allocated structure. |
| |
| RSA_free() returns no value. |
