Known Indirect Subclasses
ECFieldF2m |
This immutable class defines an elliptic curve (EC)
characteristic 2 finite field. |
ECFieldFp |
This immutable class defines an elliptic curve (EC) prime
finite field. |
|
This interface represents an elliptic curve (EC) finite field.
All specialized EC fields must implements this interface.

getFieldSize
()
Returns the field size in bits. Note: For prime finite
field ECFieldFp, size of prime p in bits is returned.
For characteristic 2 finite field ECFieldF2m, m is returned.
