Constructor Detail

HQCPrivateKey

public HQCPrivateKey(byte[] byteDk,
                     HQCParameterSpec parameterSpec)
              throws InvalidKeyException

Create private key from raw byte array only, which contains the private key, optionally the public key, the hash of the public key and the seed

Parameters:

byteDk - private key (KEM decaps key) as a byte sequence

parameterSpec - the given specification of the parameters

Throws:

InvalidKeyException - throws an error if failing to create the encoding of the private key

HQCPrivateKey

public HQCPrivateKey(byte[] encoded)
              throws InvalidKeyException

Parameters:

encoded - private key encoded as ASN.1 byte sequence

Throws:

InvalidKeyException - if the encoding is not valid
