New version of Crypt_RSA package is available

It is available at http://chat.finalcombat.com/valyala/big_int/Crypt_RSA-1.0.0RC5.tgz This package implements so much requested factory() methods for Crypt_RSA, Crypt_RSA_Key and Crypt_RSA_KeyPair classes. Now it is possible to use two techniques during creating objects: // standard PEAR technique, using factory() method: $obj = &Crypt_RSA::factory(); if (PEAR::isError($obj)) { echo "error: ", $obj->getMessage(), "\n"; } else { // work with correct Crypt_RSA object } // using constructor $obj = &new Crypt_RSA; if ($obj->isError()) { $error = $obj->getLastError(); echo "error: ", $error->getMessage(), "\n"; } else { // work with correct Crypt_RSA object } Each of Crypt_RSA, Crypt_RSA_Key and Crypt_RSA_KeyPair classes provides setErrorHandler() function, which is useful for error handling. For instance, if we have a Crypt_RSA object $rsa_obj, then we can assign our error handler, which will be called every time during error envocation: // error handler function function our_handler(&$obj) { // show error message and exit $error = $obj->getLastError(); echo "error: ", $error->getMessage(), "\n"; exit; } $rsa_obj->setErrorHandler('our_handler'); // work with $rsa_obj and don't care about errors. // All errors will be passed to our_handler() function. See Crypt/RSA/ErrorHandler.php file for more info about setErrorHandler() function. See the bottom of docs/Crypt_RSA/examples/web_interface.php file for more complex example of user's error handler, named check_error().
