ECCPPointInit

Initializes the context for a point on the elliptic curve defined over GF(p).

Syntax

IppStatus ippsECCPPointInit(int feBitSize, IppsECCPPoint* pPoint);

Parameters

feBitSize	Size (in bits) of the field element.
pECC	Pointer to the context of the elliptic curve point.

Description

This function is declared in the ippcp.h file. The function initializes the context for a point on the elliptic curve defined over a finite field GF(p).

Context is a structure IppsECCPPoint intended for storing the information about a point on the elliptic curve defined over GF(p).

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.
ippStsSizeErr	Indicates an error condition if the value of the parameter feBitSize is less than 2.
