Method Detail

initialize

public void initialize(int keysize)

Initializes the ElGamalKeyPairGenerator for given prime modulus length.

Overrides:

initialize in class java.security.KeyPairGenerator

Parameters:

primeLength - the length of the prime modulus in bits

initialize

public void initialize(int keysize,
              java.security.SecureRandom random)

Initializes the ElGamalKeyPairGenerator for given prime modulus length with the given random seed.

Overrides:

initialize in class java.security.KeyPairGenerator

Parameters:

primeLength - the length of the prime modulus in bits

random - the random seed as SecureRandom.

initialize

public void initialize(java.security.spec.AlgorithmParameterSpec params)
                throws java.security.InvalidAlgorithmParameterException

Overrides:

initialize in class java.security.KeyPairGenerator

Throws:

java.security.InvalidAlgorithmParameterException

initialize

public void initialize(java.security.spec.AlgorithmParameterSpec params,
              java.security.SecureRandom random)
                throws java.security.InvalidAlgorithmParameterException

Initializes this ElGamalKeyPairGenerator with given ElGamal parameter specification and random seed.

Overrides:

initialize in class java.security.KeyPairGenerator

Parameters:

param - the ElGamalParameterSpec representing prime modulus p, base generator g, and exponent length l

random - the random seed as SecureRandom

Throws:

java.security.InvalidParameterException - if the given algorithm parameter specification is not a ElGamalParameterSpec or the size of the exponent is not shorter than that of the prime modulus, both derived from the given DH parameter specification

java.security.InvalidAlgorithmParameterException

generateKeyPair

public java.security.KeyPair generateKeyPair()

Actually generates the requested DH KeyPair.

Overrides:

generateKeyPair in class java.security.KeyPairGenerator

Returns:

the requested key pair
