Fields Summary
private byte[]
encodedKey
The encoded key to use in the signature processing.
Constructors Summary
public EncodedKeySpec(byte[] encodedKey)
Creates a new EncodedKeySpec with the given encoded key.
param
encodedKey the encoded key.
this.encodedKey = Util.cloneArray(encodedKey);
Methods Summary
public byte[] getEncoded()
Returns the encoded key.
return
the encoded key.
return Util.cloneArray(encodedKey);
public abstract java.lang.String getFormat()
Returns the name of the encoding format associated with this key specification.
If the opaque representation of a key (see {@link java.security.Key Key}) can be generated (see {@link java.security.KeyFactory KeyFactory}) from this key specification (or a subclass of it), getFormat called on the opaque key returns the same value as the getFormat method of this key specification.
return
a string representation of the encoding format.
