How to properly print RSA* as string in C++?
I am using OpenSSL
. It doesn't seem to have a .c_str()
method, right?

If you don't like that output, you can access the RSA
members directly. For example:
// RSA object 'owns' the BIGNUM. Don't destroy it.
BIGNUM* n = rsa.get()->n;
BIGNUM* e = rsa.get()->e;
BIGNUM* d = rsa.get()->d;
string s;
BIO_reset(bio.get());
mem = NULL;
rc = BN_print(bio.get(), n);
ASSERT(rc == 1);
BIO_get_mem_ptr(bio.get(), &mem);
if(mem && mem->data && mem->length)
s.assign(mem->data, mem->length);
if(s.length())
cout << "Modulus: " << endl << s << endl;
else
cout << "Failed to retrieve modulus" << endl;
BIO_reset(bio.get());
mem = NULL;
rc = BN_print(bio.get(), e);
ASSERT(rc == 1);
BIO_get_mem_ptr(bio.get(), &mem);
if(mem && mem->data && mem->length)
s.assign(mem->data, mem->length);
if(s.length())
cout << "Public exponent: " << endl << s << endl;
else
cout << "Failed to retrieve public exponent" << endl;
BIO_reset(bio.get());
mem = NULL;
rc = BN_print(bio.get(), d);
ASSERT(rc == 1);
BIO_get_mem_ptr(bio.get(), &mem);
if(mem && mem->data && mem->length)
s.assign(mem->data, mem->length);
if(s.length())
cout << "Private exponent: " << endl << s << endl;
else
cout << "Failed to retrieve private exponent" << endl;
Output will be similar to:

If you like the formatting of the first example (the octets separated with a colon), then take a look at ASN1_bn_print
. You can use it to print RSA
members in turn. RSA_print
and RSA_print_fp
internally calls ASN1_bn_print
. There's an example of it at OpenSSL command in c to get Modulus of a public Key in the RSA.
BIGNUM* n = rsa.get()->n;
int req = BN_num_bytes(n) + 4;
unsigned char* ptr = (unsigned char*)OPENSSL_malloc(req);
rc = ASN1_bn_print(bio.get(), "Modulus:", n, ptr, 0);
ASSERT(rc == 1);
BIO_get_mem_ptr(bio.get(), &mem);
if(mem && mem->data && mem->length)
s.assign(mem->data, mem->length);
if(s.length())
cout << s << endl;
else
cout << "Failed to retrieve modulus" << endl;
It will produce output similar to:
Modulus:

You can also use BN_bn2dec
and friends. For example:
BIGNUM* n = rsa.get()->n;
cout << "BN_bn2dec:" << endl;
cout << BN_bn2dec(n) << endl;
It will produce:
