NAME

       gnutls_rsa_params_generate2 - generate temporary RSA parameters

SYNOPSIS

       #include <gnutls/gnutls.h>

       int  gnutls_rsa_params_generate2(gnutls_rsa_params_t  params,  unsigned
       int bits);

ARGUMENTS

       gnutls_rsa_params_t params
                   The structure where the parameters will be stored

       unsigned int bits
                   is the prime’s number of bits

DESCRIPTION

       This function will generate new temporary RSA  parameters  for  use  in
       RSA-EXPORT ciphersuites.  This function is normally slow.

       Note  that if the parameters are to be used in export cipher suites the
       bits value should be 512 or less.  Also note that the generation of new
       RSA  parameters  is  only useful to servers. Clients use the parameters
       sent by the server, thus it’s no use calling this in client side.

RETURNS

       GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS on success, or an negative error code.
