|
In this test, a text message is signed using Edwards-curve digital signature algorithm,
|
|
|
|
|
using the Ed25519 signature scheme.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## How it works
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The message and its signature are hardcoded in the example. To create a new
|
|
|
|
|
signed message, you may use the host-application `ed25519_sign_msg` under `tools/`,
|
|
|
|
|
which generates a new EdDSA key pair, and produces a signature for the test message.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The demo verifies the authenticity of the message via `wc_ed25519_verify_msg`.
