(Swift 2) Generate new DSA Key from OpenSSL Parameters File

Generates a new DSA key from an OpenSSL-created parameters file (DER and PEM formats supported). Examples of using OpenSSL to create parameter files are shown here:

openssl dsaparam -outform DER 1024 <  seedData.txt >dsaparam.der

openssl dsaparam 1024 < seedData.txt >dsaparam.pem

    // To generate a key from PEM, call GenKeyFromParamsPem 
    // (for an in-memory PEM string) or GenKeyFromParamsFilePem
    // for a PEM file.

    // The public and private keys may now be exported to PEM, DER,
    // and XML formatted files.

    var pemStr: String?
    var xmlStr: String?

    // First for the public key...
    // The public key never needs to be encrypted.

    // Save the public key in PEM format:
    pemStr = dsa.ToPublicPem()
    // This example will not check the return value of SaveText...
    success = dsa.SaveText(pemStr, path: "dsa_pub.pem")

    // Save the public key in DER format:
    success = dsa.ToPublicDerFile("dsa_pub.der")

    var bPublicOnly: Bool = true
    // Save to XML
    xmlStr = dsa.ToXml(bPublicOnly)
    success = dsa.SaveText(pemStr, path: "dsa_pub.xml")

    // ------------------------------------
    // Now for the private key....
    // ------------------------------------

    // Unencrypted PEM:
    pemStr = dsa.ToPem()
    success = dsa.SaveText(pemStr, path: "dsa_priv.pem")

    // Encrypted PEM:
    pemStr = dsa.ToEncryptedPem("myPassword")
    success = dsa.SaveText(pemStr, path: "dsa_privEncrypted.pem")

    // DER:
    success = dsa.ToDerFile("dsa_priv.der")

    // XML:
    bPublicOnly = false
    xmlStr = dsa.ToXml(bPublicOnly)
    success = dsa.SaveText(pemStr, path: "dsa_priv.xml")

    print("Finished!")
