       DSAgeneratekey - generate DSA key pair

SYNOPSIS
        #include 

        int DSAgeneratekey(DSA *a);

DESCRIPTION
       DSAgeneratekey() expects aa to contain DSA parameters. It generates a
       new key pair and stores it in aa->>ppuubbkkeeyy and aa->>pprriivvkkeeyy.

       The PRNG must be seeded prior to calling DSAgeneratekey().

RREETTUURRNN VVAALLUUEE
       DSAgeneratekey() returns 1 on success, 0 otherwise.  The error codes
       can be obtained by ERRgeterror(3).
