Java – get ecpoint / ecpublickeyparameters from byte [] of bouncy castle

So far, I have managed to generate ecdhe pairs in the lightweight API of inflatable castle However, I encountered a problem trying to recreate the public key from byte []

Since the ecpublickeyparameters object has only one method getq (), I assume that everything needed to rebuild the key Other parameters such as the curve used (p-521) remain unchanged

I am doing the following:

AsymmetricCipherKeyPair kp = kpgen.generateKeyPair(); //ECDHE Key Generator

EcpublicKeyParameters pubKey = (EcpublicKeyParameters)kp.getPublic();
byte[] aPubKeybytes = pubKey.getQ().getEncoded(false); //Should I set to true or false?

Unless there is another method to get the original bytes of the public key pubkey, I don't see a method to get the bytes without calling the method getq() that returns the ecpoint object

My question is how to use the lightweight API of bouncy castle to rebuild byte [] into an ecpoint object Or, better yet, how to reconstruct the entire ecpublickeyparameter object using a byte array derived from the original pubkey object

Solution

For anyone who may be involved, I solved this problem by using publickeyfactory and subjectpublickeyinfofactory to encode and decode the key

use:

byte[] key = SubjectPublicKeyInfoFactory.createSubjectPublicKeyInfo(pubKey).getEncoded();

I can get the original bytes of the key

And use:

EcpublicKeyParameters bpubKey = (EcpublicKeyParameters)PublicKeyFactory.createKey(key);

I can recreate the public key
