=head1 NAME
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
EC_KEY_get_enc_flags, EC_KEY_set_enc_flags
 | 
						|
- Get and set flags for encoding EC_KEY structures
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=head1 SYNOPSIS
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 #include <openssl/ec.h>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 unsigned int EC_KEY_get_enc_flags(const EC_KEY *key);
 | 
						|
 void EC_KEY_set_enc_flags(EC_KEY *eckey, unsigned int flags);
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=head1 DESCRIPTION
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The format of the external representation of the public key written by
 | 
						|
i2d_ECPrivateKey() (such as whether it is stored in a compressed form or not) is
 | 
						|
described by the point_conversion_form. See L<EC_GROUP_copy(3)>
 | 
						|
for a description of point_conversion_form.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
When reading a private key encoded without an associated public key (e.g. if
 | 
						|
EC_PKEY_NO_PUBKEY has been used - see below), then d2i_ECPrivateKey() generates
 | 
						|
the missing public key automatically. Private keys encoded without parameters
 | 
						|
(e.g. if EC_PKEY_NO_PARAMETERS has been used - see below) cannot be loaded using
 | 
						|
d2i_ECPrivateKey().
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The functions EC_KEY_get_enc_flags() and EC_KEY_set_enc_flags() get and set the
 | 
						|
value of the encoding flags for the B<key>. There are two encoding flags
 | 
						|
currently defined - EC_PKEY_NO_PARAMETERS and EC_PKEY_NO_PUBKEY.  These flags
 | 
						|
define the behaviour of how the  B<key> is converted into ASN1 in a call to
 | 
						|
i2d_ECPrivateKey(). If EC_PKEY_NO_PARAMETERS is set then the public parameters for
 | 
						|
the curve are not encoded along with the private key. If EC_PKEY_NO_PUBKEY is
 | 
						|
set then the public key is not encoded along with the private key.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
=head1 RETURN VALUES
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
EC_KEY_get_enc_flags() returns the value of the current encoding flags for the
 | 
						|
EC_KEY.
