zmq_curve_keypair(3) ==================== NAME ---- zmq_curve_keypair - generate a new CURVE keypair SYNOPSIS -------- *int zmq_curve_keypair (char *z85_public_key, char *z85_secret_key);* DESCRIPTION ----------- The _zmq_curve_keypair()_ function shall return a newly generated random keypair consisting of a public key and a secret key. The caller provides two buffers, each at least 41 octets large, in which this method will store the keys. The keys are encoded using link:zmq_z85_encode.html[zmq_z85_encode]. RETURN VALUE ------------ The _zmq_curve_keypair()_ function shall return 0 if successful, else it shall return `-1` and set 'errno' to one of the values defined below. ERRORS ------ *ENOTSUP*:: The libzmq library was not built with cryptographic support (libsodium). EXAMPLE ------- .Generating a new CURVE keypair ---- char public_key [41]; char secret_key [41]; int rc = crypto_box_keypair (public_key, secret_key); assert (rc == 0); ---- SEE ALSO -------- link:zmq_z85_decode.html[zmq_z85_decode] link:zmq_z85_encode.html[zmq_z85_encode] link:zmq_curve.html[zmq_curve] AUTHORS ------- This page was written by the 0MQ community.
