Creates elliptic curve domain parameters based on the
specified values.
Params: - curve – the elliptic curve which this parameter
defines.
- g – the generator which is also known as the base point.
- n – the order of the generator
g
. - h – the cofactor.
Throws: - NullPointerException – if
curve
, g
, or n
is null. - IllegalArgumentException – if
n
or h
is not positive.
