I tried to do this years ago, but back then
@tarcieri it would be great if you could test this PR with the |
| /// Scalars modulo the order of this group's scalar field. | ||
| /// | ||
| /// This associated type is temporary, and will be removed once downstream users have | ||
| /// migrated to using `Curve` as the primary generic bound. | ||
| type Scalar: PrimeField; |

I want to remove this associated type (and instead use <Self::Curve as Group>::Scalar, but for annoying historical type-checking reasons we used (the equivalent of) C: PrimeCurveAffine as the main generic parameter in https://github.com/zcash/halo2. I want to change it to use C: PrimeCurve instead (or G: PrimeGroup where I can), but before I can do that I need to kill the CurveExt trait (zcash/pasta_curves#41). So this associated type will stay until that is complete (though I hope to complete 41 in the same release cycle as this PR).
On that note, it would be good to know if any other downstream dependencies do the same thing.

If we end up landing #42 in its current form, then we'd do the obvious thing and replace these methods with CurveAffine: Identity.
This unifies the methods previously exposed by the `PrimeCurveAffine` and `CofactorCurveAffine` traits. The prime-order and cofactor traits are now all marker traits, and their affine-specific traits are automatically derived.

hey there @str4d is there any progress on this PR? I'm asking because the privacy-ethereum/halo2curves#38 is dependent on this, and I would like to test pedersen commitment circuit in proof system based on bls12-381 curve operations. Motivation is here: https://hackmd.io/l2XvogKoQOCH748T1rdWZw |
We're waiting for this and all the bumps in all the child libs (pasta, bls etc..). I have the visibility changes ready. And ready to be upstreamed (in case we can avoid vendoring). But for now, our |

* refactor: Refactor trait imports in provider/traits.rs - Refactored `provider/traits.rs` to remove local definitions of helper traits. - Incorporated `GroupOps`, `GroupOpsOwned`, and `ScalarMulOwned` from `group` module into `provider/traits.rs` to maintain functionality. * refactor: Refactor `DlogGroup` trait and optimize batch operations - the DlogGroup trait is now group-crate aware, and requires traits in those terms, - the requirements will be further streamlined when zkcrypto/group#48 merges - simplified declarations boilerplate in halo2curves & pasta macros - removed boilerplate macro duplication for grumpkin_msm. * fix: adjust macro invocations for wasm32
