=head1 NAME
d2i_PrivateKey, d2i_PublicKey, d2i_AutoPrivateKey,
i2d_PrivateKey, i2d_PublicKey,
d2i_PrivateKey_bio, d2i_PrivateKey_fp
- decode and encode functions for reading and saving EVP_PKEY structures
=head1 SYNOPSIS
#include <openssl/evp.h>
EVP_PKEY *d2i_PrivateKey(int type, EVP_PKEY **a, const unsigned char **pp,
long length);
EVP_PKEY *d2i_PublicKey(int type, EVP_PKEY **a, const unsigned char **pp,
long length);
EVP_PKEY *d2i_AutoPrivateKey(EVP_PKEY **a, const unsigned char **pp,
long length);
int i2d_PrivateKey(EVP_PKEY *a, unsigned char **pp);
int i2d_PublicKey(EVP_PKEY *a, unsigned char **pp);
EVP_PKEY *d2i_PrivateKey_bio(BIO *bp, EVP_PKEY **a);
EVP_PKEY *d2i_PrivateKey_fp(FILE *fp, EVP_PKEY **a)
=head1 DESCRIPTION
d2i_PrivateKey() decodes a private key using algorithm B<type>. It attempts to
use any key specific format or PKCS#8 unencrypted PrivateKeyInfo format. The
B<type> parameter should be a public key algorithm constant such as
B<EVP_PKEY_RSA>. An error occurs if the decoded key does not match B<type>.
d2i_PublicKey() does the same for public keys.
d2i_AutoPrivateKey() is similar to d2i_PrivateKey() except it attempts to
automatically detect the private key format.
i2d_PrivateKey() encodes B<key>. It uses a key specific format or, if none is
defined for that key type, PKCS#8 unencrypted PrivateKeyInfo format.
i2d_PublicKey() does the same for public keys.
These functions are similar to the d2i_X509() functions; see L<d2i_X509(3)>.
=head1 NOTES
All these functions use DER format and unencrypted keys. Applications wishing
to encrypt or decrypt private keys should use other functions such as
d2i_PKC8PrivateKey() instead.
If the B<*a> is not NULL when calling d2i_PrivateKey() or d2i_AutoPrivateKey()
(i.e. an existing structure is being reused) and the key format is PKCS#8
then B<*a> will be freed and replaced on a successful call.
=head1 RETURN VALUES
d2i_PrivateKey() and d2i_AutoPrivateKey() return a valid B<EVP_KEY> structure
or B<NULL> if an error occurs. The error code can be obtained by calling
L<ERR_get_error(3)>.
i2d_PrivateKey() returns the number of bytes successfully encoded or a
negative value if an error occurs. The error code can be obtained by calling
L<ERR_get_error(3)>.
