This will replace the \s-1DSA_METHOD\s0 used by the \s-1DSA\s0 key and if the 189previous method was supplied by an \s-1ENGINE\s0, the handle to that \s-1ENGINE\s0 will 190be released during the change. It is possible to have \s-1DSA\s0 keys that only 191work with certain \s-1DSA_METHOD\s0 implementations (eg. from an \s-1ENGINE\s0 module 192that supports embedded hardware-protected keys), and in such cases 193attempting to change the \s-1DSA_METHOD\s0 for the key can have unexpected 194results. 195.PP 196\&\fIDSA_new_method()\fR allocates and initializes a \s-1DSA\s0 structure so that \fBengine\fR 197will be used for the \s-1DSA\s0 operations.

If a 270default \s-1ENGINE\s0 is specified for \s-1DSA\s0 functionality using an \s-1ENGINE\s0 \s-1API\s0 function, 271that will override any \s-1DSA\s0 defaults set using the \s-1DSA\s0 \s-1API\s0 (ie. 272\&\fIDSA_set_default_method()\fR). For this reason, the \s-1ENGINE\s0 \s-1API\s0 is the recommended way 273to control default implementations for use in \s-1DSA\s0 and other cryptographic 274algorithms. 275.SH "SEE ALSO" 276.IX Header "SEE ALSO" 277dsa(3), DSA_new(3) 278.SH "HISTORY" 279.IX Header "HISTORY" 280\&\fIDSA_set_default_method()\fR, \fIDSA_get_default_method()\fR, \fIDSA_set_method()\fR, 281\&\fIDSA_new_method()\fR and \fIDSA_OpenSSL()\fR were added in OpenSSL 0.9.4. 282.PP 283\&\fIDSA_set_default_openssl_method()\fR and \fIDSA_get_default_openssl_method()\fR replaced 284\&\fIDSA_set_default_method()\fR and \fIDSA_get_default_method()\fR respectively, and 285\&\fIDSA_set_method()\fR and \fIDSA_new_method()\fR were altered to use \fB\s-1ENGINE\s0\fRs rather than 286\&\fB\s-1DSA_METHOD\s0\fRs during development of the engine version of OpenSSL 0.9.6. For 2870.9.7, the handling of defaults in the \s-1ENGINE\s0 \s-1API\s0 was restructured so that this 288change was reversed, and behaviour of the other functions resembled more closely 289the previous behaviour. The behaviour of defaults in the \s-1ENGINE\s0 \s-1API\s0 now 290transparently overrides the behaviour of defaults in the \s-1DSA\s0 \s-1API\s0 without 291requiring changing these function prototypes.
