Member Function Documentation

EncodeDERL ( const CDSAPublicKey & )

IMPORT_C CASN1EncSequence *EncodeDERL(const CDSAPublicKey &aKey)const

Encodes the supplied public key into a buffer in DER format.

Note that the encoding has the following format:
     SEQUENCE-OF
         SEQUENCE-OF
             INTEGER p
             INTEGER q
             INTEGER g
         BIT STRING (encoded INTEGER public value)

ParameterDescription
aKeyKey to encode.

Returns: Sequence containing public key information.

EncodeParamsLC ( const CDSAPublicKey & )

IMPORT_C CASN1EncSequence *EncodeParamsLC(const CDSAPublicKey &aKey)const

Encodes DSA parameters into an ASN.1 encoding structure suitable for inclusion into other objects, like a PKCS#10 certificate request.

Note that the encoding has the following form:
     SEQUENCE-OF
         INTEGER p
         INTEGER q
         INTEGER g

ParameterDescription
aKeyDSA public key.

Returns: ASN.1 encoding structure on the cleanup stack.

EncodePublicValueLC ( const CDSAPublicKey & )

IMPORT_C CASN1EncBitString *EncodePublicValueLC(const CDSAPublicKey &aKey)const

Encodes a public key as a bit string.

ParameterDescription
aKeyDSA public key.

Returns: ASN.1 bit string (public key). This is left on the cleanup stack.
