Hi,

I'm in the same situation as you but with EC scheme, I used Harry's
code (http://groups.google.com/group/cryptopp-users/browse_thread/
thread/e58e46f0e8558f2b/022e858d15529859?lnk=gst&q=How+to+save+public
+key+and+private+key+for+#022e858d15529859)
 to get the private and public key written on files and now I 'd like
to Load the public key from the public.key file using the Load()
method from PublicKey class

Here is the portion of my code  :
        CryptoPP::ECIES < ECC_ALGORITHM >::Encryptor Encryptor
(publicKey);

        // Public Key Loading

         std::ifstream file2("Public.key", std::ios::in);
         string public_k;
         if(file2)
           {
                getline(file2, public_k);  //  put the first line on
"public_k"
                cout <<  "the public key " << public_k << endl ;  //
display the line
                file2.close();
        }
        else
        cerr << "impossible to open the file!" << endl;

        publicKey.Load(public_k);

-------------

After compiling I got the following error :
 error: no matching function for call to
‘CryptoPP::DL_PublicKey_EC<CryptoPP::ECP>::Load(std::string&)’
/usr/include/cryptopp/asn.h:240: note: candidates are: void
CryptoPP::ASN1CryptoMaterial<BASE>::Load(CryptoPP::BufferedTransformation&)
[with BASE = CryptoPP::PublicKey]

The problem seems to be the choice of the parameter type for Load() ,
which should  be BufferedTransformation&. How can I convert from
string to this type then ?

thanks for help.
