Class KeyGeneratorSpi
- java.lang.Object
javax.crypto.KeyGeneratorSpi
- public abstract class KeyGeneratorSpi
- extends java.lang.Object
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( java.security.SecureRandom random)
Initializes the key generator.
Parameters:
random - the source of randomness for this generator engineInit
- protected abstract void engineInit( java.security.spec.AlgorithmParameterSpec params,
- java.security.SecureRandom random)
- throws java.security.InvalidAlgorithmParameterException
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:
java.security.InvalidAlgorithmParameterException - if params is
inappropriate for this key generator engineInit
- protected abstract void engineInit( int keysize,
- java.security.SecureRandom random)
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:
java.security.InvalidParameterException - if the keysize is wrong or not
supported. engineGenerateKey
- protected abstract SecretKey engineGenerateKey( )
Generates a secret key.
Returns:
the new key
