All Implemented Interfaces:

public class MGF1
extends MaskGenerationAlgorithm
implements java.lang.Cloneable

This class implements the PKCS#1v2.1 mask generation algorithm MGF1 as used by by the RSASSA-PSS signature scheme and the RSAES-OAEP encryption scheme.

An application wishing to use some specific mask generation function, first tries to get an engine instance for the MGF1 mask generation algorithm:

 MaskGenerationAlgorithm mgf = MaskGenerationAlgorithm.getInstance("MGF1", "IAIK");
 

After supplying the engine with parameters (if required), method has to be called to "mask" the input data by XORing it with the mask generated from some seed by using the mask generation algorithm. Since MGF1 is based on a hash algorithm the hash algorithm may be supplied as MGF1ParameterSpec:

 AlgorithmID hashAlgID = ...;
 MGF1ParameterSpec paramSpec = new MGF1ParameterSpec(hashAlgID);
 // optionally set the hash engine to be used:
 MessageDigest hashEngine = ...;
 paramSpec.setHashEngine(hashEngine);
 // set the parameters
 mgf.setParameters(paramSpec);
 // mask the data
 byte[] data = ...;
 byte[] dataOff = ...;
 byte[] seed = ...;
 int seedOff = ...;
 int seedLen = ...;
 int maskLen = ...;
 mgf.mask(seed, seedOff, seedLen, maskLen, data, dataOff);
