These functions decode and encode elliptic curve keys and parameters. For details about the semantics, examples, caveats, and bugs, see ASN1_item_d2i(3).

() and () decode and encode the parameters of an elliptic curve. (), (), (), and () are similar except that they decode or encode using a BIO or FILE pointer. These four functions are currently implemented as macros.

() does the same parsing as d2i_ECPKParameters() but saves the result in the group field of an EC_KEY structure.

() produces the same output as () but uses val_in->group for input instead of val_in.

() allocates and initializes an empty EC_KEY object and copies the EC parameters from val_in to it by calling i2d_ECParameters() and d2i_ECParameters(). If a private or public key or any flags are present in val_in, they are not copied.

() and () decode and encode an EC private key using an ASN.1 ECPrivateKey structure defined in RFC 5915 section 3 and used for the privateKey field of the ASN.1 PrivateKeyInfo structure defined in RFC 5208 section 5, see PKCS8_PRIV_KEY_INFO_new(3). (), (), (), and () are similar except that they decode or encode using a BIO or FILE pointer.

() and () decode and encode an EC public key. In contrast to ASN1_item_d2i(3), o2i_ECPublicKey() requires val_out, *val_out, and (*val_out)->group to be non-NULL.

() and () print human-readable output of the public parameters of the EC_GROUP to out_bio or out_fp. The output lines are indented by indent spaces.

() and () print the parameter components of val_in to out_bio or out_fp.

() and () decode and encode an EC public key using an ASN.1 SubjectPublicKeyInfo structure defined in RFC 5280 section 4.1 and documented in X509_PUBKEY_new(3). (), (), (), and () are similar except that they decode or encode using a BIO or FILE pointer.

d2i_ECPKParameters(), d2i_ECPKParameters_bio(), and d2i_ECPKParameters_fp() return a valid EC_GROUP structure or NULL if an error occurs.

d2i_ECParameters(), ECParameters_dup(), d2i_ECPrivateKey(), d2i_ECPrivateKey_bio(), d2i_ECPrivateKey_fp(), o2i_ECPublicKey(), d2i_EC_PUBKEY(), d2i_EC_PUBKEY_bio(), and d2i_EC_PUBKEY_fp() return a valid EC_KEY structure or NULL if an error occurs.

i2d_ECPKParameters(), i2d_ECParameters(), i2d_ECPrivateKey(), i2o_ECPublicKey(), and i2d_EC_PUBKEY() return the number of bytes successfully encoded or a negative value if an error occurs.

i2d_ECPKParameters_bio(), i2d_ECPKParameters_fp(), i2d_ECPrivateKey_bio(), i2d_ECPrivateKey_fp(), ECPKParameters_print(), ECPKParameters_print_fp(), ECParameters_print(), ECParameters_print_fp(), i2d_EC_PUBKEY_bio(), and i2d_EC_PUBKEY_fp() return 1 for success or 0 if an error occurs.
