Struct curve25519_dalek::edwards::EdwardsBasepointTable

pub struct EdwardsBasepointTable(_);

A precomputed table of multiples of a basepoint, for accelerating fixed-base scalar multiplication. One table, for the Ed25519 basepoint, is provided in the constants module.

The basepoint tables are reasonably large (30KB), so they should probably be boxed.

Methods

impl EdwardsBasepointTable

fn create(basepoint: &EdwardsPoint) -> EdwardsBasepointTable

Create a table of precomputed multiples of basepoint.

fn basepoint(&self) -> EdwardsPoint

Get the basepoint for this table as an EdwardsPoint.

XXX maybe this would be better as a From impl

Trait Implementations

impl Clone for EdwardsBasepointTable

fn clone(&self) -> EdwardsBasepointTable

Returns a copy of the value.
