Can't DER encode and BER decode RSA public key
- by Mildred
I have problems using Crypto++ to save a RSA public key (that I obtained loading a private key file in PKCS#8 format). When decoding the key, I always get a BERDecodeErr exception.
Here is the code I am using:
CryptoPP::RSASSA_PKCS1v15_SHA_Signer _signer;
CryptoPP::RSASSA_PKCS1v15_SHA_Verifier _verifier;
CryptoPP::ByteQueue bytes;
//_signer.AccessPublicKey().Save(bytes); // seem to save private key instead
_signer.AccessKey().DEREncodePublicKey(bytes);
//_verifier.AccessKey().Load(bytes);
//_verifier.AccessKey().BERDecodePublicKey(bytes, 0, 0);
_verifier.AccessPublicKey().Load(bytes);
I also tried with the instructions commented above, without success.
How do you do to save or open the public key?
The public key looks like this in hex format, is there a tool to check its format / validity (regarding what crypto++ supports) ?
