+ <code class="code">createKey()</code> takes three parameters - <code class="code">$bits</code>, <code class="code">$timeout</code>,

+ fairly time consuming and will guarantee that <code class="code">createKey()</code> does not run for more than
+ <code class="code">$timeout</code> seconds. <code class="code">$primes</code> lets provide pre-computed prime numbers to speed
+ things up.

+ </p><p>
+ The exponent can be set by defining <code class="code">CRYPT_RSA_EXPONENT</code> and multi-prime RSA can be utilized

+ Passwords can be set via <code class="code">setPassword()</code> and are only supported on private keys.
+ CRYPT_RSA_PUBLIC_FORMAT_OPENSSH generates keys that are intended to go in $HOME/.ssh/authorized_keys
+ for use with OpenSSH. Another format - CRYPT_RSA_PUBLIC_FORMAT_RAW - is stored as an array with two
+ indexes - one for the modulus and one for the exponent. Indexes accepted by <code class="code">loadkey()</code>
+ are as follows:
+ </p><p>
+ e, exponent, publicExponent, modulus, modulo, n
+ </p><p>
+ <code class="code">loadKey()</code> has two parameters - <code class="code">$key</code> and the optional <code class="code">$type</code>.
+ The default type, if <code class="code">$type</code> is not explicitely set, is CRYPT_RSA_PRIVATE_FORMAT_PKCS1.
+ It should, at this point, be noted that Crypt_RSA treats public and private keys largelly identically.
+ A key can be formatted as a CRYPT_RSA_PUBLIC_FORMAT_PKCS1 and still conform to the
+ CRYPT_RSA_PRIVATE_FORMAT_PKCS1 format and vice versa. The only real difference between private keys and
+ public keys is that private keys *can* contain their public key counterparts whereas public keys cannot.
+ That said, this distinction is, for the most part, irrelevant and academic. For a more thorough
+ discussion of this see <a class="link" href="misc_crypt.html#misc_crypt_rsa_getpublickey" title="4.2.5. setPublicKey() and getPublicKey()">setPublicKey() and getPublicKey()</a>.
+ </p></div><div class="section" lang="en" xml:lang="en"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h3 class="title"><a id="misc_crypt_rsa_getpublickey"></a>4.2.5. setPublicKey() and getPublicKey()</h3></div></div></div><p>
+ As noted in <a class="link" href="misc_crypt.html#misc_crypt_rsa_format" title="4.2.4. setPrivateKeyFormat(), setPublicKeyFormat(), loadKey() and setPassword()">setPrivateKeyFormat(), setPublicKeyFormat(), loadKey() and setPassword()</a>,
+ Crypt_RSA treats public and private keys largely identically. The only real difference is that some
+ private key formats contain the public key within them whereas no public key format does. The reason
+ you'd want to do this is for indexing purposes. For example, in SSH-2, RSA authentication works by
+ sending your public key along with a signature created by your private key. The SSH-2 server then looks
+ the public key up in an index of public keys to see if it's an allowed key and then verifies the signature.
+ To that end, <code class="code">setPublicKey()</code> defines the public key if it hasn't already been defined and
+ <code class="code">getPublicKey()</code> returns it. <code class="code">getPublicKey()</code> has an optional parameter - $type -
+ that sets the format.

+ Crypt_RSA supports two encryption modes - <code class="code">CRYPT_RSA_ENCRYPTION_OAEP</code> and
+ <code class="code">CRYPT_RSA_ENCRYPTION_PKCS1</code>. <code class="code">CRYPT_RSA_ENCRYPTION_OAEP</code> uses

+ and provides more security than <code class="code">CRYPT_RSA_ENCRYPTION_PKCS1</code>.
+ </p><p>
+ Both <code class="code">CRYPT_RSA_ENCRYPTION_OAEP</code> and <code class="code">CRYPT_RSA_ENCRYPTION_PKCS1</code> impose limits
+ on how large the plaintext can be. If the plaintext exceeds these limits the plaintext will be split
+ up such that each block falls within those limits.

+ Crypt_RSA supports two signature modes - <code class="code">CRYPT_RSA_SIGNATURE_PSS</code> and
+ <code class="code">CRYPT_RSA_SIGNATURE_PKCS1</code>. The former is assumed to provide more security than the latter.
+ See <a class="link" href="misc_crypt.html#misc_crypt_rsa_examples" title="4.2.2. Examples">Examples</a> for examples.

+ In all likelihood, calling these functions will be unnecessary as the default values should be sufficient.
+ None-the-less a discussion of them follows.
+ </p><p>
+ <code class="code">setHash()</code> is used with signature production / verification and (if the encryption mode is
+ CRYPT_RSA_ENCRYPTION_OAEP) encryption and decryption. If the specified hash isn't supported sha1 will
+ be used.
+ </p><p>
+ <code class="code">setMGFHash()</code> determines which hashing function should be used for the mask generation
+ function as utilized in CRYPT_RSA_ENCRYPTION_OAEP and CRYPT_RSA_SIGNATURE_PSS. PKCS#1 recommends
+ but does not require that the MGFHash and the Hash be set to the same thing.
+ </p><p>
+ <code class="code">setSaltLength()</code> is only utilized with CRYPT_RSA_SIGNATURE_PSS. PKCS#1 recommends this
+ value either be 0 (which is what it is by default) or the length of the output of the hash function as
+ set via <code class="code">setHash()</code>
