Hi all
Does the library support asymmetric encryption using private key in RSA?

Yes, Mohammed, I want to prevent the colisions. MD5 is not as resistant as
SHA-1, while co-author of SHA-1 is NSA, so we are not 100% sure, if they
have this alg. cracked, but is good rated anyway! Crypto++ contains 2
different types, i.e. RSA-ES for encryption and RSA-SS for signature. You
say that I can use RSA-ES, that is intended for encryption and sign the
combined hash using its private key? The truth is I am not sure how to do
it...
