It attempts to use any key specific format or PKCS#8 unencrypted PrivateKeyInfo format. The <b>type</b> parameter should be a public key algorithm constant such as <b>EVP_PKEY_RSA</b>. An error occurs if the decoded key does not match <b>type</b>. d2i_PublicKey() does the same for public keys.</p> <p>d2i_AutoPrivateKey() is similar to d2i_PrivateKey() except it attempts to automatically detect the private key format.</p> <p>i2d_PrivateKey() encodes <b>key</b>. It uses a key specific format or, if none is defined for that key type, PKCS#8 unencrypted PrivateKeyInfo format. i2d_PublicKey() does the same for public keys.</p> <p>These functions are similar to the d2i_X509() functions; see <a href="../man3/d2i_X509.html">d2i_X509(3)</a>.</p> <h1 id="NOTES">NOTES</h1> <p>All the functions that operate on data in memory update the data pointer <i>*pp</i> after a successful operation, just like the other d2i and i2d functions; see <a href="../man3/d2i_X509.html">d2i_X509(3)</a>.</p> <p>All these functions use DER format and unencrypted keys. Applications wishing to encrypt or decrypt private keys should use other functions such as d2i_PKCS8PrivateKey() instead.</p> <p>If the <b>*a</b> is not NULL when calling d2i_PrivateKey() or d2i_AutoPrivateKey() (i.e. an existing structure is being reused) and the key format is PKCS#8 then <b>*a</b> will be freed and replaced on a successful call.</p> <p>To decode a key with type <b>EVP_PKEY_EC</b>, d2i_PublicKey() requires <b>*a</b> to be a non-NULL EVP_PKEY structure assigned an EC_KEY structure referencing the proper EC_GROUP.</p> <h1 id="RETURN-VALUES">RETURN VALUES</h1> <p>The d2i_PrivateKey(), d2i_AutoPrivateKey(), d2i_PrivateKey_bio(), d2i_PrivateKey_fp(), and d2i_PublicKey() functions return a valid <b>EVP_KEY</b> structure or <b>NULL</b> if an error occurs. The error code can be obtained by calling <a href="../man3/ERR_get_error.html">ERR_get_error(3)</a>.</p> <p>i2d_PrivateKey() and i2d_PublicKey() return the number of bytes successfully encoded or a negative value if an error occurs.
