-.SH "DESCRIPTION"
-.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
-A \fB\s-1DSA_METHOD\s0\fR specifies the functions that OpenSSL uses for \s-1DSA\s0
-operations. By modifying the method, alternative implementations
-such as hardware accelerators may be used. \s-1IMPORTANT:\s0 See the \s-1NOTES\s0 section for
-important information about how these \s-1DSA\s0 \s-1API\s0 functions are affected by the use
-of \fB\s-1ENGINE\s0\fR \s-1API\s0 calls.
-.PP
-Initially, the default \s-1DSA_METHOD\s0 is the OpenSSL internal implementation,
-as returned by \fIDSA_OpenSSL()\fR.
-.PP
-\&\fIDSA_set_default_method()\fR makes \fBmeth\fR the default method for all \s-1DSA\s0
-structures created later. \fB\s-1NB\s0\fR: This is true only whilst no \s-1ENGINE\s0 has
-been set as a default for \s-1DSA\s0, so this function is no longer recommended.
-.PP
-\&\fIDSA_get_default_method()\fR returns a pointer to the current default
-\&\s-1DSA_METHOD\s0. However, the meaningfulness of this result is dependant on
-whether the \s-1ENGINE\s0 \s-1API\s0 is being used, so this function is no longer
-recommended.
-.PP
-\&\fIDSA_set_method()\fR selects \fBmeth\fR to perform all operations using the key
-\&\fBrsa\fR. This will replace the \s-1DSA_METHOD\s0 used by the \s-1DSA\s0 key and if the
-previous method was supplied by an \s-1ENGINE\s0, the handle to that \s-1ENGINE\s0 will
-be released during the change. It is possible to have \s-1DSA\s0 keys that only
-work with certain \s-1DSA_METHOD\s0 implementations (eg. from an \s-1ENGINE\s0 module
-that supports embedded hardware-protected keys), and in such cases
-attempting to change the \s-1DSA_METHOD\s0 for the key can have unexpected
-results.
-.PP
-\&\fIDSA_new_method()\fR allocates and initializes a \s-1DSA\s0 structure so that \fBengine\fR
-will be used for the \s-1DSA\s0 operations. If \fBengine\fR is \s-1NULL\s0, the default engine
-for \s-1DSA\s0 operations is used, and if no default \s-1ENGINE\s0 is set, the \s-1DSA_METHOD\s0
-controlled by \fIDSA_set_default_method()\fR is used.

-.SH "RETURN VALUES"

-\&\fIDSA_OpenSSL()\fR and \fIDSA_get_default_method()\fR return pointers to the respective
-\&\fB\s-1DSA_METHOD\s0\fRs.
-.PP
-\&\fIDSA_set_default_method()\fR returns no value.
-.PP
-\&\fIDSA_set_method()\fR returns non-zero if the provided \fBmeth\fR was successfully set as
-the method for \fBdsa\fR (including unloading the \s-1ENGINE\s0 handle if the previous
-method was supplied by an \s-1ENGINE\s0).
-.PP
-\&\fIDSA_new_method()\fR returns \s-1NULL\s0 and sets an error code that can be
-obtained by ERR_get_error(3) if the allocation
-fails. Otherwise it returns a pointer to the newly allocated structure.
-.SH "NOTES"
-.IX Header "NOTES"
-As of version 0.9.7, \s-1DSA_METHOD\s0 implementations are grouped together with other
-algorithmic APIs (eg. \s-1RSA_METHOD\s0, \s-1EVP_CIPHER\s0, etc) in \fB\s-1ENGINE\s0\fR modules. If a
-default \s-1ENGINE\s0 is specified for \s-1DSA\s0 functionality using an \s-1ENGINE\s0 \s-1API\s0 function,
-that will override any \s-1DSA\s0 defaults set using the \s-1DSA\s0 \s-1API\s0 (ie.
-\&\fIDSA_set_default_method()\fR). For this reason, the \s-1ENGINE\s0 \s-1API\s0 is the recommended way
-to control default implementations for use in \s-1DSA\s0 and other cryptographic
-algorithms.

-\&\fIDSA_set_default_method()\fR, \fIDSA_get_default_method()\fR, \fIDSA_set_method()\fR,
-\&\fIDSA_new_method()\fR and \fIDSA_OpenSSL()\fR were added in OpenSSL 0.9.4.
-.PP
-\&\fIDSA_set_default_openssl_method()\fR and \fIDSA_get_default_openssl_method()\fR replaced
-\&\fIDSA_set_default_method()\fR and \fIDSA_get_default_method()\fR respectively, and
-\&\fIDSA_set_method()\fR and \fIDSA_new_method()\fR were altered to use \fB\s-1ENGINE\s0\fRs rather than
-\&\fB\s-1DSA_METHOD\s0\fRs during development of the engine version of OpenSSL 0.9.6. For
-0.9.7, the handling of defaults in the \s-1ENGINE\s0 \s-1API\s0 was restructured so that this
-change was reversed, and behaviour of the other functions resembled more closely
-the previous behaviour. The behaviour of defaults in the \s-1ENGINE\s0 \s-1API\s0 now
-transparently overrides the behaviour of defaults in the \s-1DSA\s0 \s-1API\s0 without
-requiring changing these function prototypes.
