I think that your code should look like the following (not tested) :
struct MyStruct
{
int iMyInt;
float fMyFloat;
char szMyString[5];
long lMyLong
}
int main ()
{
struct MyStruct sStruct;
unsigned char szEncrypted[...];
RSA Rsa;
int iResult;
/* Do some initializations here
...
*/
/* Encryption */
iResult = RSA_public_encrypt (sizeof (struct MyStruct), (unsigned char
*)&sStruct, szEncrypted, &Rsa, RSA_PKCS1_PADDING);
/* Decryption */
iResult = RSA_public_decrypt (sizeof (szEncrypted), szEncrypted, (unsigned
char *)&sStruct, &Rsa, RSA_PKCS1_PADDING);
}
I hope this helps.
