What?
This is similar to PR34. It implements additional function in
Ciphertext
. I've named itfrom_elements
as there are alreadyfrom_element
functions inPublicKey
andVerifiableDecryption
(of course I can change tofrom_parts
or any other name). For example it allows to instantiate Ciphertext from untagged bytes:Why?
playready-rs requires a functionality to instantiate
Ciphertext
from bytes sent over the wire. For now I've forkedelastic-elgamal
but I would love to publishplayready-rs
on crates.io (but it's not possible as it uses modified version of this repository).
