demo.smime.basic
Class SMimeV4Demo

java.lang.Object
  extended by demo.smime.basic.SMimeV4Demo

public class SMimeV4Demo
extends java.lang.Object

This class demonstrates the usage of the IAIK S/MIME implementation. It shows how to create signed and/or encrypted S/MIMEv4 messages and how to parse them and verify the signatures and decrypt the content, respectively.

To run this demo the following packages are required:

You also will need the IAIK-JCE library, iaik_jce(_full).jar.

This demo uses RSA both for signing an encryption. Look at the demos in package demo.smime.ecc for examples based on elliptic curve cryptography.
