| com.sun.midp.crypto.Key
All known Subclasses: com.sun.midp.crypto.RSAKey, com.sun.midp.crypto.SecretKey,
| Key | | abstract public interface Key (Code) | | Implements an abstract class that represents all keys (both
symmetric and asymmetric).
|
| Method Summary | |
| String | getAlgorithm()
Returns the name of the algorithm associated with this secret key. | | byte[] | getEncoded()
Returns the key in its primary encoding format, or null
if this key does not support encoding. | | String | getFormat()
Returns the name of the primary encoding format of this key, or null
if this key does not support encoding. |
| getAlgorithm | | String getAlgorithm()(Code) | | Returns the name of the algorithm associated with this secret key.
the secret key algorithm. |
| getEncoded | | byte[] getEncoded()(Code) | | Returns the key in its primary encoding format, or null
if this key does not support encoding.
the encoded key, or null if the key does not support encoding. |
| getFormat | | String getFormat()(Code) | | Returns the name of the primary encoding format of this key, or null
if this key does not support encoding. The primary encoding format is
named in terms of the appropriate ASN.1 data format, if an ASN.1
specification for this key exists. For example, the name of the ASN.1
data format for public keys is SubjectPublicKeyInfo, as defined
by
the X.509 standard; in this case, the returned format is
"X.509".
Similarly, the name of the ASN.1 data format for private keys is
PrivateKeyInfo, as defined by the PKCS #8 standard; in this
case,
the returned format is "PKCS#8".
the primary encoding format of the key. |
