Struct sequoia_openpgp::crypto::mpi::MPI[][src]

pub struct MPI { /* fields omitted */ }
Expand description

A Multiprecision Integer.

Implementations

Creates a new MPI.

This function takes care of removing leading zeros.

Creates new MPI encoding an uncompressed EC point.

Encodes the given point on a elliptic curve (see Section 6 of RFC 6637 for details). This is used to encode public keys and ciphertexts for the NIST curves (NistP256, NistP384, and NistP521).

Creates new MPI encoding a compressed EC point using native encoding.

Encodes the given point on a elliptic curve (see Section 13.2 of RFC4880bis for details). This is used to encode public keys and ciphertexts for the Bernstein curves (currently X25519).

Returns the length of the MPI in bits.

Leading zero-bits are not included in the returned size.

Returns the value of this MPI.

Note that due to stripping of zero-bytes, the returned value may be shorter than expected.

Decodes an EC point encoded as MPI.

Decodes the MPI into a point on an elliptic curve (see Section 6 of RFC 6637 and Section 13.2 of RFC4880bis for details). If the point is not compressed, the function returns (x, y). If it is compressed, y will be empty.

Errors

Returns Error::UnsupportedEllipticCurve if the curve is not supported, Error::MalformedMPI if the point is formatted incorrectly.
