26 X509_get_pubkey() attempts to decode the public key for certificate B<x>. If
27 successful it returns the public key as an B<EVP_PKEY> pointer with its
28 reference count incremented: this means the returned key must be freed up
29 after use. X509_get0_pubkey() is similar except it does B<not> increment
30 the reference count of the returned B<EVP_PKEY> so it must not be freed up
33 X509_get_X509_PUBKEY() returns an internal pointer to the B<X509_PUBKEY>
34 structure which encodes the certificate of B<x>. The returned value
35 must not be freed up after use.
37 X509_set_pubkey() attempts to set the public key for certificate B<x> to
38 B<pkey>. The key B<pkey> should be freed up after use.
40 X509_REQ_get_pubkey(), X509_REQ_get0_pubkey(), X509_REQ_set_pubkey() and
41 X509_REQ_get_X509_PUBKEY() are similar but operate on certificate request B<req>.
45 The first time a public key is decoded the B<EVP_PKEY> structure is
46 cached in the certificate or certificate request itself. Subsequent calls
47 return the cached structure with its reference count incremented to
52 X509_get_pubkey(), X509_get0_pubkey(), X509_get_X509_PUBKEY(),
53 X509_REQ_get_pubkey() and X509_REQ_get_X509_PUBKEY() return a public key or
54 B<NULL> if an error occurred.
56 X509_set_pubkey() and X509_REQ_set_pubkey() return 1 for success and 0
