Struct PrivateKey 

pub struct PrivateKey { /* private fields */ }

A private ECDSA-P256 key.

Encoding

These variable-length signatures use SHA256 internally, and are encoded using ASN.1 wrapped DER bytes as described in RFC 3279 § 2.2.3.

Implementations

impl PrivateKey

pub fn new() -> Self

Generate a new, ephemeral key.

pub fn public_key(&self) -> PublicKey<'_>

Return the PublicKey derived from this PrivateKey.

impl Default for PrivateKey

fn default() -> Self

Returns the “default value” for a type.
