Class KeyGeneratorSpi

java.lang.Object
  javax.crypto.KeyGeneratorSpi

public abstract class KeyGeneratorSpi
extends Object

Disabled: no SafeJ information.

This class defines the Service Provider Interface (SPI) for the KeyGenerator class. All the abstract methods in this class must be implemented by each cryptographic service provider who wishes to supply the implementation of a key generator for a particular algorithm.

Method Detail

engineInit

protected abstract void engineInit(SecureRandom random)

Class is disabled.

Initializes the key generator.

Parameters:

random - the source of randomness for this generator

engineInit

protected abstract void engineInit(AlgorithmParameterSpec params,
                                   SecureRandom random)
                            throws InvalidAlgorithmParameterException

Class is disabled.

Initializes the key generator with the specified parameter set and a user-provided source of randomness.

Parameters:

params - the key generation parameters

random - the source of randomness for this key generator

Throws:

InvalidAlgorithmParameterException - if params is inappropriate for this key generator

engineInit

protected abstract void engineInit(int keysize,
                                   SecureRandom random)

Class is disabled.

Initializes this key generator for a certain keysize, using the given source of randomness.

Parameters:

keysize - the keysize. This is an algorithm-specific metric, specified in number of bits.

random - the source of randomness for this key generator

Throws:

InvalidParameterException - if the keysize is wrong or not supported.

engineGenerateKey

protected abstract SecretKey engineGenerateKey()

Class is disabled.

Generates a secret key.

Returns:

the new key
