public final class EdECPoint
extends Object
An elliptic curve point used to specify keys as defined by RFC 8032: Edwards-Curve Digital Signature Algorithm (EdDSA). These points are distinct from the points represented by ECPoint, and they are intended for use with algorithms based on RFC 8032 such as the EdDSA Signature algorithm.
An EdEC point is specified by its y-coordinate value and a boolean that indicates whether the x-coordinate is odd. The y-coordinate is an element of the field of integers modulo some value p that is determined by the algorithm parameters. This field element is represented by a BigInteger, and implementations that consume objects of this class may reject integer values which are not in the range [0, p).
Summary
Public methods |
BigInteger | getY() Get the y-coordinate of the point. |
boolean | isXOdd() Get whether the x-coordinate of the point is odd. |
Inherited methods |
From class java.lang.Object Object | clone() Creates and returns a copy of this object. | boolean | equals(Object obj) Indicates whether some other object is "equal to" this one. | void | finalize() Called by the garbage collector on an object when garbage collection determines that there are no more references to the object. | final Class<?> | getClass() Returns the runtime class of this Object. | int | hashCode() Returns a hash code value for the object. | final void | notify() Wakes up a single thread that is waiting on this object's monitor. | final void | notifyAll() Wakes up all threads that are waiting on this object's monitor. | String | toString() Returns a string representation of the object. | final void | wait(long timeoutMillis, int nanos) Causes the current thread to wait until it is awakened, typically by being notified or interrupted, or until a certain amount of real time has elapsed. | final void | wait(long timeoutMillis) Causes the current thread to wait until it is awakened, typically by being notified or interrupted, or until a certain amount of real time has elapsed. | final void | wait() Causes the current thread to wait until it is awakened, typically by being notified or interrupted. | |
