NAME


DSA_dup_DH - create a DH structure out of DSA structure

SYNOPSIS


 #include <openssl/dsa.h>

 DH * DSA_dup_DH(const DSA *r);

DESCRIPTION


DSA_dup_DH() duplicates DSA parameters/keys as DH parameters/keys. q is lost during that conversion, but the resulting DH parameters contain its length.

RETURN VALUE


DSA_dup_DH() returns the new DH structure, and NULL on error. The error codes can be obtained by ERR_get_error().

NOTE


Be careful to avoid small subgroup attacks when using this.

SEE ALSO


DH, DSA, ERR_get_error()

HISTORY


DSA_dup_DH() was added in OpenSSL 0.9.4.
