See <a href="../man3/EC_GROUP_copy.html">EC_GROUP_copy(3)</a> for a description of point_conversion_form.</p> <p>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().</p> <p>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</b>. 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</b> 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.</p> <h1 id="RETURN-VALUES">RETURN VALUES</h1> <p>EC_KEY_get_enc_flags() returns the value of the current encoding flags for the EC_KEY.</p> <h1 id="SEE-ALSO">SEE ALSO</h1> <p><a href="../man7/crypto.html">crypto(7)</a>, <a href="../man3/EC_GROUP_new.html">EC_GROUP_new(3)</a>, <a href="../man3/EC_GROUP_copy.html">EC_GROUP_copy(3)</a>, <a href="../man3/EC_POINT_new.html">EC_POINT_new(3)</a>, <a href="../man3/EC_POINT_add.html">EC_POINT_add(3)</a>, <a href="../man3/EC_GFp_simple_method.html">EC_GFp_simple_method(3)</a>, <a href="../man3/d2i_ECPKParameters.html">d2i_ECPKParameters(3)</a>, <a href="../man3/d2i_ECPrivateKey.html">d2i_ECPrivateKey(3)</a></p> <h1 id="COPYRIGHT">COPYRIGHT</h1> <p>Copyright 2015-2017 The OpenSSL Project Authors.
