Hi all, is there any reason to have not serialization functions (i2d/d2i) for points of elliptic curves (EC_POINT)?
I found in ECPARAMETERS-related functions that points (actually, the generator) are serialized through EC_POINT_point2oct into ASN1_OCTET_STRING (->base). Wouldn't be possible to define a serialization function directly for EC_POINTs (as done with BIGNUM/CBIGNUM)? This way, one could define structures with EC_POINTs and rely on IMPLEMENT_ASN1_ALLOC_FUNCTIONS to automatically produce id2/d2i functions...
