How to export a public key in OpenSSL/libcrypto?

Hi All, I've created an RSA key using: RSA_generate_key(2048, RSA_F4, NULL, NULL); Now I want to export the public key to another party B. Right now, I've just memcpy'd the entire RSA* struct and sent that over the wire, and B is able to use that to encrypt using RSA_public_encrypt(). But I think in this case I've actually exported t...

Is there a function that takes two values, lets f(x,y) == f(y,x), and the output is otherwise unique?

Hi, I am wondering if there is a way to generate a key based on the relationship between two entities in a way that the key for relationship a->b is the same as the key for relationship b->a.
