Well you can work with http://openssl.org/docs/manmaster/crypto/EC_KEY_key2buf.html to extract EC public key octets. If you want an ASN.1 encoded "SPKI" object (i.e. an X509_PUBKEY in OpenSSL) then you can use X509_PUBKEY *pk = NULL; unsigned char *buf = NULL; EVP_PKEY *key; key = ... ; /* Get a keypair */ if (X509_PUBKEY_set(&pk, key) <= 0) { /* error */ } len = i2d_X509_PUBKEY(pk, &buf); if (len < 0 || buf == NULL) { /* error */ } /* buf contains ASN.1-encoded SPKI, use it */ OPENSSL_free(buf); X509_PUBKEY_free(pk); EVP_PKEY_free(key); /* If no longer needed */ A shorter version of the above is possible via i2d_PUBKEY() which handles the creation, encoding and destruction of the intermediate X509_PUBKEY: int i2d_PUBKEY(EVP_PKEY *a, unsigned char **pp) { X509_PUBKEY *xpk = NULL; int ret; if (!a) return 0; if (!X509_PUBKEY_set(&xpk, a)) return 0; ret = i2d_X509_PUBKEY(xpk, pp); X509_PUBKEY_free(xpk); return ret; } Looks like we need documentation for X509_PUBKEY_set() and friends... Any volunteers?
