zmq_curve_keypair(3)
====================
NAME
----
zmq_curve_keypair - generate a new CURVE keypair
SYNOPSIS
--------
*int zmq_curve_keypair (char *z85_public_key, char *z85_secret_key);*
DESCRIPTION
-----------
The _zmq_curve_keypair()_ function shall return a newly generated random
keypair consisting of a public key and a secret key. The caller provides
two buffers, each at least 41 octets large, in which this method will
store the keys. The keys are encoded using linkzmq:zmq_z85_encode[3].
RETURN VALUE
------------
The _zmq_curve_keypair()_ function shall return 0 if successful, else it
shall return `-1` and set 'errno' to one of the values defined below.
ERRORS
------
*ENOTSUP*::
The libzmq library was not built with cryptographic support (libsodium).
EXAMPLE
-------

----
char public_key [41];
char secret_key [41];
int rc = zmq_curve_keypair (public_key, secret_key);
assert (rc == 0);
