secp256r1 not included #237

Open Frank1773 opened 3 years ago

Frank1773 commented 3 years ago

is there a plan to implement secp256r1?

horsth commented 3 years ago

according to https://tools.ietf.org/search/rfc4492 "secp256r1" should be the same thing as "prime256v1" and the later one seems to be supported in xca. (disclaimer: I am no expert in these things) Maybe the wording in the selection box can be improved so people like me searching the term "secp256r1" in the combobox find the proper entry?

Thank you @horsth . This was driving me nuts.

When I get a chance, I'll put a pull request together to change the label to make sure that prime256 v1 is labeled as a NIST/X9.62/SECG curve, like it is for prime192v1.
