method DiffieHellman.prototype.generateKeys
Jump to headingDiffieHellman.prototype.generateKeys(): BufferGenerates private and public Diffie-Hellman key values unless they have been
generated or computed already, and returns
the public key in the specified encoding. This key should be
transferred to the other party.
If encoding is provided a string is returned; otherwise a Buffer is returned.
This function is a thin wrapper around DH_generate_key(). In particular,
once a private key has been generated or set, calling this function only updates
the public key but does not generate a new private key.
