There is some precedent for us adding functions to compute other elements (see: https://cryptography.io/en/latest/hazmat/primitives/asymmetric/rsa/#handling-partial-rsa-private-keys) so a function to do this makes sense to me. -Paul On May 14, 2015 at 3:21:29 AM, Dario Sneidermanis (dari...@gmail.com) wrote: Hi, I'm trying to compute an EllipticCurvePrivateKey from a private_value (d). It seems that the only way to achieve this is to create an EllipticCurvePrivateNumbers object, but the constructor takes both the private_value and the public_numbers. Why does it need the public_numbers, when it could compute them (knowing the curve), by doing d*G (G being the curve generator)? Is there any way to go from d to the ECPrivKey without doing d*G by myself?
