Actually my problem is a little different. I have a .pem format file which contain my public and private key both and i want to get only the public key from that file as a string.
I already have done that by just parsing the said file but if there is some direct way i will b glad to know. @marco i don't have the string at all. Infact i want the string @Toivonen i tried as_pem but it gives me some private key after doing some thing with the file i pass to it as argument which is even not the private key i have in my file. Also if i set cipher=None, even then its result is same Thanks by the way marco and Toivonen for trying to help :) On Mon, Sep 15, 2008 at 1:06 PM, Marco Bizzarri <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>wrote: > On Mon, Sep 15, 2008 at 8:23 AM, Usman Ajmal <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hi, > > > > I have a M2Crypto.RSA.RSA instance that contain my public-key.
