9*2175Sjp161948 #include <openssl/dsa.h>

13*2175Sjp161948=head1 DESCRIPTION
14*2175Sjp161948
15*2175Sjp161948DSA_dup_DH() duplicates DSA parameters/keys as DH parameters/keys. q
16*2175Sjp161948is lost during that conversion, but the resulting DH parameters
17*2175Sjp161948contain its length.
18*2175Sjp161948
19*2175Sjp161948=head1 RETURN VALUE
20*2175Sjp161948
21*2175Sjp161948DSA_dup_DH() returns the new B<DH> structure, and NULL on error. The
22*2175Sjp161948error codes can be obtained by L<ERR_get_error(3)|ERR_get_error(3)>.
