Detailed Description#

The class QSslEllipticCurve represents an elliptic curve for use by elliptic-curve cipher algorithms.

Elliptic curves can be constructed from a “short name” (SN) ( fromShortName() ), and by a call to supportedEllipticCurves() .

QSslEllipticCurve instances can be compared for equality and can be used as keys in QHash and QSet. They cannot be used as key in a QMap.

Note

This class is currently only supported in OpenSSL.

__init__()#

Constructs an invalid elliptic curve.

isValid() supportedEllipticCurves()

static fromLongName(name)#

Parameters:: name – str
Return type:: QSslEllipticCurve

Returns an QSslEllipticCurve instance representing the named curve name. The name is a long name for the curve, whose exact spelling depends on the SSL implementation.

If the given name is not supported, returns an invalid QSslEllipticCurve instance.

Note

The OpenSSL implementation of this function treats the name case-sensitively.
