## Detailed Description

### template<class EC>
class DL_PrivateKey_EC< EC >

Elliptic Curve Discrete Log (DL) private key.

Template Parameters

  EC | elliptic curve field

Definition at line 209 of file eccrypto.h.

## Member Function Documentation

## Initialize() [1/4]

template<class EC >

void DL_PrivateKey_EC< EC >::Initialize | ( | const DL_GroupParameters_EC< EC > & | params,
|  | const Integer & | x
| ) |  |

inline

Initialize an EC Private Key using {GP,x}.

Parameters

  params | group parameters
  x | the private exponent

This Initialize() function overload initializes a private key from existing parameters.

Definition at line 220 of file eccrypto.h.

## Initialize() [2/4]

template<class EC >

void DL_PrivateKey_EC< EC >::Initialize | ( | const EC & | ec,
|  | const Element & | G,
|  | const Integer & | n,
|  | const Integer & | x
| ) |  |

inline

Initialize an EC Private Key using {EC,G,n,x}.

Parameters

  ec | the elliptic curve
  G | the base point
  n | the order of the base point
  x | the private exponent

This Initialize() function overload initializes a private key from existing parameters.

Definition at line 229 of file eccrypto.h.

## Initialize() [3/4]

template<class EC >

void DL_PrivateKey_EC< EC >::Initialize | ( | RandomNumberGenerator & | rng,
|  | const DL_GroupParameters_EC< EC > & | params
| ) |  |

inline

Create an EC private key.

Parameters

  rng | a RandomNumberGenerator derived class
  params | the EC group parameters

This function overload of Initialize() creates a new private key because it takes a RandomNumberGenerator() as a parameter. If you have an existing keypair, then use one of the other Initialize() overloads.

Definition at line 238 of file eccrypto.h.

## Initialize() [4/4]

template<class EC >

void DL_PrivateKey_EC< EC >::Initialize | ( | RandomNumberGenerator & | rng,
|  | const EC & | ec,
|  | const Element & | G,
|  | const Integer & | n
| ) |  |

inline

Create an EC private key.

Parameters

  rng | a RandomNumberGenerator derived class
  ec | the elliptic curve
  G | the base point
  n | the order of the base point

This function overload of Initialize() creates a new private key because it takes a RandomNumberGenerator() as a parameter. If you have an existing keypair, then use one of the other Initialize() overloads.
