Constructor Detail

ECNewRandomnessTransform

public ECNewRandomnessTransform()

Method Detail

init

public void init(CipherParameters param)

initialise the underlying EC ElGamal engine.

Specified by:

init in interface ECPairTransform

Parameters:

param - the necessary EC key parameters.

transform

public ECPair transform(ECPair cipherText)

Transform an existing cipher test pair using the ElGamal algorithm. Note: it is assumed this transform has been initialised with the same public key that was used to create the original cipher text.

Specified by:

transform in interface ECPairTransform

Parameters:

cipherText - the EC point to process.

Returns:

returns a new ECPair representing the result of the process.

getTransformValue

public java.math.BigInteger getTransformValue()

Return the last random value generated for a transform

Specified by:

getTransformValue in interface ECPairFactorTransform

Returns:

a BigInteger representing the last random value.
