Include ECC Encryption #24

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

Great project!

It would also be great if you included the ECC, especially the ECDSA functions 
in GWT-Crypto.

There is a significant demand for this feature(along with SHA256) for use in 
the Cryptocurrency realm.  There is a project for instance BitcoinJS that uses 
both ECDSA and SHA256, but they implement the functions directly and there is 
no significant code reuse.  http://bitcoinjs.org/

Also ECC lends itself better to JS environments as it requires less computation 
and the keys are smaller.

Any chance you could implement the ECC functions?

also not really sure if there is a discussion forum for this project?

I also can't determine how I would compile an RSA key and send the serialized 
key to the GWT client?  The classes don't appear to offer a way to construct a 
Public Key object from a byte[] or similar object.  Sorry if this is the wrong 
place for this, just trying to do some research on your technology.
