Detailed Description

template<class BASE>
struct DL_PublicKey_ElGamal< BASE >

ElGamal Public Key adapter.

Template Parameters
BASEPublicKey derived class

DL_PublicKey_ElGamal provides an override for GetAlgorithmID() to utilize 1.3.14.7.2.1.1. Prior to DL_PublicKey_ElGamal, the ElGamal keys [mistakenly] used the OID from DSA due to DL_GroupParmaters_GFP(). If you need to Load an ElGamal key with the wrong OID then see ElGamal on the Crypto++ wiki.
