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 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 = zmq_curve_keypair (public_key, secret_key); assert (rc == 0);
