ECNewPublicKeyTransform

public ECNewPublicKeyTransform()

Method Detail

init

public void init(CipherParameters param)

initialise the EC Elgamal engine.

Specified by:

init in interface ECPairTransform

Parameters:

param - the necessary EC key parameters.

transform

public ECPair transform(ECPair cipherText)

Transform an existing cipher text pair using the ElGamal algorithm. Note: the input cipherText will need to be preserved in order to complete the transformation to the new public key.

Specified by:

transform in interface ECPairTransform

Parameters:

cipherText - the EC point to process.

Returns:

returns a new ECPair representing the result of the process.

createBasePointMultiplier

protected ECMultiplier createBasePointMultiplier()
