PGPKeyPair (Bouncy Castle Library 1.68 API Specification)

java.lang.Object
- org.bouncycastle.openpgp.PGPKeyPair

Direct Known Subclasses:

BcPGPKeyPair, JcaPGPKeyPair
```
public class PGPKeyPair
extends java.lang.Object
```
General class to handle JCA key pairs and convert them into OpenPGP ones.
A word for the unwary, the KeyID for a OpenPGP public key is calculated from a hash that includes the time of creation, if you pass a different date to the constructor below with the same public private key pair the KeyID will not be the same as for previous generations of the key, so ideally you only want to do this once.
