Enum Error

#[non_exhaustive]
pub enum Error {
    MalformedDealerPolynomial,
    InvalidDealerProof(VerificationError),
    InvalidSecret,
    ParticipantCountMismatch,
    MalformedParticipantKeys,
}

Errors that can occur during the secret sharing protocol.

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.

MalformedDealerPolynomial

Public polynomial received from the dealer is malformed.

InvalidDealerProof(VerificationError)

Proof of possession supplied with the dealer’s public polynomial is invalid.

InvalidSecret

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

ParticipantCountMismatch

Number of participants specified in Params does not match the number of provided public keys.

MalformedParticipantKeys

Participants’ public keys do not correspond to a single shared key.

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.
