200.SH "DESCRIPTION"
201\fIDSA_generate_key()\fR expects \fBa\fR to contain DSA parameters. It generates
202a new key pair and stores it in \fBa->pub_key\fR and \fBa->priv_key\fR.
203.PP
204The PRNG must be seeded prior to calling \fIDSA_generate_key()\fR.
205.SH "RETURN VALUE"
206\fIDSA_generate_key()\fR returns 1 on success, 0 otherwise.
207The error codes can be obtained by ERR_get_error(3).
208.SH "SEE ALSO"
209dsa(3), ERR_get_error(3), rand(3),
210DSA_generate_parameters(3)
211.SH "HISTORY"
212\fIDSA_generate_key()\fR is available since SSLeay 0.8.
