Hi,


I have compiled the latest version of openssl. The problem is that the ecparam, ec switches in commands doesn't seem to work. Any idea what am i doing wrong. EC crypto libraries do exist. The man ecparam command also doesn't find any man entries.

Any help

about /home/test/openssl-0.9.7d/crypto/ec does mean using for ECDH?
this code use only prime field operation and projective coodination.

please have a look at 0.9.8-dev



ecc parametor is hard coding. who supports ecc? if one might want to generate any suitable ecc parametor, like ecdhparamgen command, there are some known algs.

ec parameter generation (i.e. generating a suitable elliptic curve plus generator etc.) is very expensive => one normally uses pre-calculated well-known curves.
