This library is a utility module to help with point-compression techniques
for NIST P-256 and SEC-2 K-256 elliptic curve public keys. Refer to the
documentation (built using make doc
) for more information.
Simply use make
to build the library.
This library only supports point-compaction for NIST P-256 keys and point compression for SEC-2 K-256 keys. Other curves and compression combinations could be supported, but the work has not yet been done. Contributions welcome.
