NAME

Crypt::OpenSSL::ECDSA - Perl extension for OpenSSL ECDSA (Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm)

SYNOPSIS

    use Crypt::OpenSSL::ECDSA;
    $sig = Crypt::OpenSSL::ECDSA::ECDSA_do_sign( $digest, $eckey );
    $r = $sig->get_r;
    $s = $sig->get_s;

    $sig = Crypt::OpenSSL::ECDSA::ECDSA_SIG->new();
    $sig->set_r($r);
    $sig->set_s($s);
    Crypt::OpenSSL::ECDSA::ECDSA_do_verify( $digest, $sig, $eckey );

DESCRIPTION

CLASS METHODS

new

    $sig = Crypt::OpenSSL::ECDSA::ECDSA_SIG->new();

Create a new ECDSA Signature Object.

The internal "r" and "s" components are undefined.

OBJECT METHODS

get_r;

    $r = $sig->get_r;

Gets signature "r" component.

The method returns a string representing a binary integer in network (big-endian) byte order.

get_s;

    $s = $sig->get_s;

Gets signature "s" component.

The method returns a string representing a binary integer in network (big-endian) byte order.

set_r;

    $sig->set_r($r);

Sets signature "r" component.

The argument is a string representing a binary integer in network (big-endian) byte order.

set_s;

    $sig->set_r($s);

Sets signature "s" component.

The argument is a string representing a binary integer in network (big-endian) byte order.
