Struct bdk_chain::bitcoin::secp256k1::PublicKey

pub struct PublicKey(/* private fields */);

Public key - used to verify ECDSA signatures and to do Taproot tweaks.

Serde support

Implements de/serialization with the serde feature enabled. We treat the byte value as a tuple of 33 u8s for non-human-readable formats. This representation is optimal for for some formats (e.g. bincode) however other formats may be less optimal (e.g. cbor).

Examples

Basic usage:

use secp256k1::{SecretKey, Secp256k1, PublicKey};

let secp = Secp256k1::new();
let secret_key = SecretKey::from_slice(&[0xcd; 32]).expect("32 bytes, within curve order");
let public_key = PublicKey::from_secret_key(&secp, &secret_key);

Implementations

impl PublicKey

pub fn cmp_fast_unstable(&self, other: &PublicKey) -> Ordering

Like cmp::Cmp but faster and with no guarantees across library versions.

The Cmp implementation for FFI types is stable but slow because it first serializes self and other before comparing them. This function provides a faster comparison if you know that your types come from the same library version.

pub fn eq_fast_unstable(&self, other: &PublicKey) -> bool

Like cmp::Eq but faster and with no guarantees across library versions.

The Eq implementation for FFI types is stable but slow because it first serializes self and other before comparing them. This function provides a faster equality check if you know that your types come from the same library version.

impl PublicKey

pub fn as_ptr(&self) -> *const PublicKey

👎Deprecated since 0.25.0: Use Self::as_c_ptr if you need to access the FFI layer

Obtains a raw const pointer suitable for use with FFI functions.

pub fn as_mut_ptr(&mut self) -> *mut PublicKey

👎Deprecated since 0.25.0: Use Self::as_mut_c_ptr if you need to access the FFI layer

Obtains a raw mutable pointer suitable for use with FFI functions.

let mut rng = rand::thread_rng();
let (_, pk1) = secp.generate_keypair(&mut rng);
let (_, pk2) = secp.generate_keypair(&mut rng);

where C: Verification,

Checks that sig is a valid ECDSA signature for msg using this public key.
