Enumeration Type Documentation

enum DSASignatureFormat

DSA Signature Format.

The DSA signature format used by Crypto++ is as defined by IEEE P1363. Java nad .Net use the DER format, and OpenPGP uses the OpenPGP format.

Enumerator
DSA_P1363	Crypto++ native signature encoding format.
DSA_DER	signature encoding format used by Java and .Net
DSA_OPENPGP	OpenPGP signature encoding format.

Function Documentation

size_t DSAConvertSignatureFormat	(	byte *	buffer,
		size_t	bufferSize,
		DSASignatureFormat	toFormat,
		const byte *	signature,
		size_t	signatureLen,
		DSASignatureFormat	fromFormat
	)

Converts between signature encoding formats.

Parameters

buffer	byte buffer for the converted signature encoding
bufferSize	the length of the converted signature encoding buffer
toFormat	the source signature format
signature	byte buffer for the existing signature encoding
signatureLen	the length of the existing signature encoding buffer
fromFormat	the source signature format

This function converts between these formats, and returns length of signature in the target format. If toFormat == DSA_P1363, then bufferSize must equal publicKey.SignatureLength()

Since

Crypto++ 1.0
