=head1 SYNOPSIS
|
|

|
|
|

=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
RSA_new() allocates and initializes an B<RSA> structure.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
RSA_free() frees the B<RSA> structure and its components. The key is
|

|
|
|
erased before the memory is returned to the system.

=head1 RETURN VALUES
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If the allocation fails, RSA_new() returns B<NULL> and sets an error
|
|
|
|
|
code that can be obtained by ERR_get_error(3). Otherwise it returns
|
|
|
|
|
a pointer to the newly allocated structure.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
RSA_free() returns no value.
