If this is all your code than you need than you need to load the algorithms before you use this - OpenSSL_add_all_ciphers();. If you call this function before than try ERR_print_errors and see what you get.

I'm trying to generate the ECC key with: EC_KEY *eckey = EC_KEY_new(); if (eckey == NULL) { printf("key is null\n"); } int x; if (!(x=EC_KEY_generate_key(eckey))) { printf("EC key not created + %d\n",x); } but I always get the "EC key not created" message. and I don't understand why...I stripped down the code to the minimum needed... thanks a lot Francesco Durbin ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org Development Mailing List [email protected] Automated List Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED]
