  163. \&\fBX509_get_pubkey()\fR attempts to decode the public key for certificate \fBx\fR. If
  164. successful it returns the public key as an \fB\s-1EVP_PKEY\s0\fR pointer with its
  165. reference count incremented: this means the returned key must be freed up
  166. after use. \fBX509_get0_pubkey()\fR is similar except it does \fBnot\fR increment
  167. the reference count of the returned \fB\s-1EVP_PKEY\s0\fR so it must not be freed up
  168. after use.
  169. .PP
  170. \&\fBX509_get_X509_PUBKEY()\fR returns an internal pointer to the \fBX509_PUBKEY\fR
  171. structure which encodes the certificate of \fBx\fR. The returned value
  172. must not be freed up after use.
  173. .PP
  174. \&\fBX509_set_pubkey()\fR attempts to set the public key for certificate \fBx\fR to
  175. \&\fBpkey\fR. The key \fBpkey\fR should be freed up after use.

  181. The first time a public key is decoded the \fB\s-1EVP_PKEY\s0\fR structure is
  182. cached in the certificate or certificate request itself. Subsequent calls
  183. return the cached structure with its reference count incremented to
  184. improve performance.
