Enum Error

#[non_exhaustive]
pub enum Error {
    InvalidSecret,
    InvalidCommitment,
    DuplicateShare,
    MalformedParticipantProof(Error),
    InconsistentPublicShares(Error),
}

Errors that can occur during the distributed key generation.

Variants (Non-exhaustive)

Non-exhaustive enums could have additional variants added in future. Therefore, when matching against variants of non-exhaustive enums, an extra wildcard arm must be added to account for any future variants.

InvalidSecret

Secret received from the party does not correspond to their commitment via the public polynomial.

InvalidCommitment

Provided commitment does not correspond to the party’s public key share.

DuplicateShare

Secret share for this participant was already provided.

MalformedParticipantProof(Error)

Provided proof of possession or public polynomial is malformed.

InconsistentPublicShares(Error)

Public shares obtained from accumulated public polynomial are inconsistent.

Trait Implementations

impl Debug for Error

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl Display for Error

fn fmt(&self, formatter: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl Error for Error

fn source(&self) -> Option<&(dyn Error + 'static)>

Returns the lower-level source of this error, if any.

fn description(&self) -> &str

👎Deprecated since 1.42.0: use the Display impl or to_string()

fn cause(&self) -> Option<&dyn Error>

👎Deprecated since 1.33.0: replaced by Error::source, which can support downcasting

fn provide<'a>(&'a self, request: &mut Request<'a>)

🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (error_generic_member_access)

Provides type-based access to context intended for error reports.
