Description
ldns_key_new() Creates a new empty key structure
Returns a new ldns_key * structure
ldns_key_new_frm_algorithm() Creates a new key based on the algorithm
a: The algorithm to use
size: the number of bytes for the keysize
Returns a new ldns_key structure with the key
ldns_key_new_frm_fp() Creates a new priv key based on the contents of the file pointed by fp.
The file should be in Private-key-format v1.x.
k: the new ldns_key structure
fp: the file pointer to use
Returns an error or LDNS_STATUS_OK
ldns_key_new_frm_fp_l() Creates a new private key based on the contents of the file pointed by fp
The file should be in Private-key-format v1.x.
k: the new ldns_key structure
fp: the file pointer to use
line_nr: pointer to an integer containing the current line number (for debugging purposes)
Returns an error or LDNS_STATUS_OK
ldns_key_new_frm_fp_rsa() frm_fp helper function. This function parses the remainder of the (RSA) priv. key file generated from bind9
fp: the file to parse
Returns NULL on failure otherwise a RSA structure
ldns_key_new_frm_fp_rsa_l() frm_fp helper function. This function parses the remainder of the (RSA) priv. key file generated from bind9
fp: the file to parse
line_nr: pointer to an integer containing the current line number (for debugging purposes)
Returns NULL on failure otherwise a RSA structure
ldns_key_new_frm_fp_dsa() frm_fp helper function. This function parses the remainder of the (DSA) priv. key file
fp: the file to parse
Returns NULL on failure otherwise a RSA structure
ldns_key_new_frm_fp_dsa_l() frm_fp helper function. This function parses the remainder of the (DSA) priv. key file
fp: the file to parse
line_nr: pointer to an integer containing the current line number (for debugging purposes)
Returns NULL on failure otherwise a RSA structure
