The Pairing-Based Cryptography Library

pbc-0.5.12 released

This fixes a param parsing bug. The old code assumed the params would terminate with a whitespace, and would behave poorly if it didn’t. The sample params are not affected because they all end with a newline. == pbc-0.5.11 released ==

Thanks to Michael Rushanan, you can now build on win32 using certain compilers.

pbc-0.5.10 released

Michael Adjedj again found a bug. It turns out I didn’t fix the problem correctly in the last release. Hopefully this time I did!

pbc-0.5.9 released

Michael Adjedj fixed a bug which caused element_pairing() to fail because of an uninitialized pointer.

Also I supported a feature request from Zi Lin, who wanted to raise an element in a finite group to an enormous power. The library now detects this and reduces the power modulo the order of the group before proceeding with the main loop.
