Struct openssl::bn::BigNumContext

[+] Show declaration

pub struct BigNumContext(_);

[−] Expand description

Temporary storage for BigNums on the secure heap

BigNum values are stored dynamically and therefore can be expensive to allocate. BigNumContext and the OpenSSL BN_CTX structure are used internally when passing BigNum values between subroutines.

Methods

impl BigNumContext

[−]

pub fn new() -> Result<BigNumContext, ErrorStack>

[−]

Returns a new BigNumContext.

See OpenSSL documentation at BN_CTX_new.
