Deprecated. This class is deprecated and should no longer be used.
Description
This class stores an RSA key pair, consisting of private and public key. Storage of the private key is optional.
If a private key is available, the RSAKey can be used for decrypting data (encrypted with the public key) or computing secure digital signatures.

Constructors
RSAKey
RSAKey
RSAKey(
const X509Certificate & cert
);
Extracts the RSA public key from the given certificate.
RSAKey
RSAKey(
const PKCS12Container & cert
);
Extracts the RSA private key from the given certificate.
RSAKey
RSAKey(
const RSAKey & other
);
Copy constructor.
RSAKey
RSAKey(
RSAKey && other
) noexcept;
Move constructor.
RSAKey
RSAKey(
KeyLength keyLength,
Exponent exp
);
Creates the RSAKey. Creates a new public/private keypair using the given parameters. Can be used to sign data and verify signatures.
RSAKey
RSAKey(
const std::string & publicKeyFile,
const std::string & privateKeyFile = "",
const std::string & privateKeyPassphrase = ""
);
Creates the RSAKey, by reading public and private key from the given files and using the given passphrase for the private key.
Cannot be used for signing or decryption unless a private key is available.
If a private key is specified, you don't need to specify a public key file. OpenSSL will auto-create the public key from the private key.
RSAKey
RSAKey(
std::istream * pPublicKeyStream,
std::istream * pPrivateKeyStream = 0,
const std::string & privateKeyPassphrase = ""
);
Creates the RSAKey, by reading public and private key from the given streams and using the given passphrase for the private key.
Cannot be used for signing or decryption unless a private key is available.
If a private key is specified, you don't need to specify a public key file. OpenSSL will auto-create the public key from the private key.
Destructor
~RSAKey 
~RSAKey();
Destroys the RSAKey.
Member Functions

);
Assignment.
operator =
RSAKey & operator = (
RSAKey && other
) noexcept;
Move assignment.
