5DSA_dup_DH - create a DH structure out of DSA structure
6
7=head1 SYNOPSIS
8
9 #include <openssl/dsa.h>
10
11The following functions have been deprecated since OpenSSL 3.0, and can be
12hidden entirely by defining B<OPENSSL_API_COMPAT> with a suitable version value,
13see L<openssl_user_macros(7)>:
14
15 DH *DSA_dup_DH(const DSA *r);
16
17=head1 DESCRIPTION
18
19The function described on this page is deprecated. There is no direct
20replacement, applications should use the EVP_PKEY APIs for Diffie-Hellman
21operations.
22
23DSA_dup_DH() duplicates DSA parameters/keys as DH parameters/keys. q
24is lost during that conversion, but the resulting DH parameters
25contain its length.
26
27=head1 RETURN VALUES
28
29DSA_dup_DH() returns the new B<DH> structure, and NULL on error. The
30error codes can be obtained by L<ERR_get_error(3)>.
31
32=head1 NOTE
33
34Be careful to avoid small subgroup attacks when using this.
