Public Class Methods

OpenSSL::PKey::EC::Group.new(ec_group) click to toggle source
OpenSSL::PKey::EC::Group.new(pem_or_der_encoded)
OpenSSL::PKey::EC::Group.new(ec_method)
OpenSSL::PKey::EC::Group.new(:GFp, bignum_p, bignum_a, bignum_b)
OpenSSL::PKey::EC::Group.new(:GF2m, bignum_p, bignum_a, bignum_b)

Creates a new EC::Group object.

ec_method is a symbol that represents an EC_METHOD. Currently the following are supported:

  • :GFp_simple

  • :GFp_mont

  • :GFp_nist

  • :GF2m_simple

If the first argument is :GFp or :GF2m, creates a new curve with given parameters.
