gsk_construct_public_key

Constructs an RSA public key from its component values.

Note: This function is deprecated. Use gsk_construct_public_key() instead.

Format

   #include <gskcms.h>

   gsk_status gsk_construct_public_key_rsa (
                                          gsk_buffer *             modulus,
                                          gsk_buffer *             exponent,
                                          x509_public_key_info *   public_key)

Parameters

modulus: Specifies the modulus (n).
exponent: Specifies the public exponent (e).
public_key: Returns the public key.

Results

The function return value will be 0 if no error is detected. Otherwise, it will be one of the return codes listed in the gskcms.h include file. These are some possible errors:

[ASN_ELEMENTS_MISSING]: Required data element is missing.

Usage

The gsk_construct_public_key_rsa() function constructs pkcs_public_key_info from its RSA public key components. The x509_public_key_info structures x509_algorithm_identifier is set with x509_alg_rsaEncryption.
