NTRG ECC-LIB WIN32

Introduction

NTRG ECC-LIB WIN32 is a collection of the files that I modified in order to get ECC-LIB version 2.0 to compile on Windows 32. Since ECC-LIB requires the GNU Multiple Precision Arithmetic Library (GMP) you also need my Win32 port of GMP, which can be found here. Also, I have only tested it on a Windows XP machine with MS Visual Studio .NET 2003.

Compilation and installation

To compile it just copy the files provided here to the distribution directory of ECC-LIB 2.0 and overwrite the existing files there, then simply enter the directory and type nmake. If you don't use MS VS .NET 2003 you would have to change the related include line in the Makefile. There is no installation required, just put all the files from the include directory to your include path and ecc.lib to your library path. When you are using it in MSVC++ to compile new programs don't forget to define _NTRG_WIN32_, include the relevant header files and link against ecc.lib and gmp.lib.

Acquisition

You can find NTRG ECC-LIB WIN32 here. There is also a binary package available here.
