Method Detail

hmac

public boolean hmac(String algorithm,
                    byte[] key,
                    byte[] data,
                    byte[] correct)
             throws Exception

Computes the HMAC on the given data using the given key, and compares the result with the given pre-computed correct value.

Parameters:

algorithm - the HMAC algorithm to be used, e.g. "HMAC/MD5"

key - the key data to be used for generating a secret key necessary for MAC computation

data - the data on which the MAC shall be computed

correct - the pre-computed correct value for verifying the rseult of the MAC computation

Returns:

true if the MAC computation yields the correct result false otherwise

start

public void start()

Tests the HMAC algorithm using Md5 for hash computation.

Returns:

true if the test yields the correct result, false otherwise

main

public static void main(String[] arg)
                 throws IOException

Performs some tests for HMAC.
