ECCPSetPoint

Sets coordinates of a point on the elliptic curve defined over GF(p).

Syntax

IppStatus ippsECCPSetPoint(const IppsBigNumState*
pX
, const IppsBigNumState*
pY
, IppsECCPPointState*
pPoint
, IppsECCPState*
pECC
);
Include Files
ippcp.h
Parameters
pX
Pointer to the
x
-coordinate of the point on the elliptic curve.
pY
Pointer to the
y
-coordinate of the point on the elliptic curve.
pPoint
Pointer to the context of the elliptic curve point.
pECC
Pointer to the context of the elliptic cryptosystem.
Description
The function sets the coordinates of a point on the elliptic curve defined over a prime finite field GF(
p
).
The context of the point on the elliptic curve must be already created by functions:
ECCPPointGetSize
 and
ECCPPointInit
. The elliptic curve domain parameters must be hitherto defined by one of the functions:
ECCPSet
 or
ECCPSetStd
.
Return Values
ippStsNoErr
Indicates no error. Any other value indicates an error or warning.
ippStsNullPtrErr
Indicates an error condition if any of the specified pointers is
NULL
.
ippStsContextMatchErr
Indicates an error condition if one of the contexts pointed by
pX
,
pY
,
pPoint
, or
pECC
 is not valid.
