1# Converting a Compressed or Uncompressed ECC Public Key (C/C++)
2
3You can generate a public key object [PubKey](../../reference/apis-crypto-architecture-kit/_crypto_asym_key_api.md#oh_cryptopubkey)) from ECC public key data or obtain the ECC public key data from a public key (**PubKey**) object.
4Currently, only the compressed/uncompressed public key data that complies with the ECC X.509 standard is supported. The public key data mentioned in this topic is a complete X509 public key. For details about the operations on point data, see [Converting Compressed or Uncompressed ECC Point Data](crypto-convert-compressed-or-uncompressed-ECC-point.md).
5For details about the ECC algorithm specifications, see [ECC](crypto-asym-key-generation-conversion-spec.md#ecc).
6<br>You can pass in the string parameter to set the format of the ECC public key to obtain. To obtain a compressed public key that complies with the X.509 standard, pass in **X509|COMPRESSED**. To obtain an uncompressed public key, pass in **X509|UNCOMPRESSED**.

9##  Converting Uncompressed Public Key Data to Compressed Public Key Data

111. Specify uncompressed ECC public key data of the uint8_t type and encapsulate the data into a [Crypto_DataBlob](../../reference/apis-crypto-architecture-kit/_crypto_common_api.md#crypto_datablob) object.
12Either the public key or private key can be passed in. In this example, an uncompressed public key is passed in.
132. Call [OH_CryptoAsymKeyGenerator_Create](../../reference/apis-crypto-architecture-kit/_crypto_asym_key_api.md#oh_cryptoasymkeygenerator_generate) with the string parameter **'ECC_BrainPoolP256r1'** to create an asymmetric key generator (**OH_CryptoAsymKeyGenerator**) object for a 256-bit ECC key pair.
143. Call [OH_CryptoAsymKeyGenerator_Convert](../../reference/apis-crypto-architecture-kit/_crypto_asym_key_api.md#oh_cryptoasymkeygenerator_convert) to convert the [Crypto_DataBlob](../../reference/apis-crypto-architecture-kit/_crypto_common_api.md#crypto_datablob) object into an asymmetric key object (**OH_CryptoKeyPair**).
154. Call [OH_CryptoPubKey_Encode](../../reference/apis-crypto-architecture-kit/_crypto_asym_key_api.md#oh_cryptopubkey_encode) with the parameter set to **'X509|COMPRESSED'** to obtain the byte stream of the compressed public key data.
