| java.security.interfaces.EdECPublicKey
|
An interface for an elliptic curve public key as defined by
RFC 8032: Edwards-Curve
Digital Signature Algorithm (EdDSA). These keys are distinct from the
keys represented by ECPublicKey, and they are intended for use with
algorithms based on RFC 8032 such as the EdDSA Signature algorithm.
An Edwards-Curve public key is a point on the curve, which is represented using an
EdECPoint.
