So you wont be able to access the structure directly. However I think it is pretty certain there will be new utility functions to access the public and private key components of RSA (and DSA, DH) structures. The reason I say that is that you need that functionality to make ENGINE work. Steve. -- Dr Stephen N. Henson. OpenSSL project core developer.
