Class SHA224withDSA

java.security.SignatureSpi

iaik.security.dsa.DSA

iaik.security.dsa.SHA224withDSA

public class SHA224withDSA
extends DSA

Signature engine for the DSA signature algorithm using SHA224 as hash algorithm as specified by FIPS 186-3.

For signing some data call the Signature getInstance, initSign, update and sign methods, respectively, e.g.:

 byte[] message = ...;
 Signature dsa = Signature.getInstance("SHA224withDSA", "IAIK");
 PrivateKey privateKey = ...;   
 // init Signature object with private key
 dsa.initSign(privateKey);
 // supply the data to be signed by as many update calls as necessary
 dsa.update(message); 
 // create the signature
 byte[] dsasig = dsa.sign();
 

For verifying a signature call the Signature getInstance, initVerify, update and verify methods, respectively, e.g.: byte[] message = ...; Signature dsa = Signature.getInstance("SHA224withDSA", "IAIK"); PublicKey publicKey = ...; // init Signature object with public key dsa.initVerify(publicKey); // supply the data that has been signed by as many update calls as necessary dsa.update(message); // verify the signature if (dsa.verify(dsasig) == false){ throw new SignatureException("Signature invalid."); }

Constructor Detail

SHA224withDSA

public SHA224withDSA()
              throws java.security.NoSuchAlgorithmException

Default constructor. Applications should not use this constructor, but the Signature.getInstance("SHA224withDSA") method.

Throws:

java.security.NoSuchAlgorithmException - if the SHA224 MessageDigest algorithm is not available
