Method Details

decodePrivateKey

public PrivateKey decodePrivateKey(byte[] k)
Specified by:
decodePrivateKey in interface IKeyPairCodec

decodePublicKey

public PublicKey decodePublicKey(byte[] k)
Specified by:
decodePublicKey in interface IKeyPairCodec

encodePrivateKey

public byte[] encodePrivateKey(PrivateKey key)
Returns the encoded form of the designated DSS (Digital Signature Standard) private key according to the Raw format supported by this library.

The Raw format for a DSA private key, in this implementation, is a byte sequence consisting of the following:

  1. 4-byte magic consisting of the value of the literal Registry.MAGIC_RAW_DSS_PRIVATE_KEY,
  2. 1-byte version consisting of the constant: 0x01,
  3. 4-byte count of following bytes representing the DSA parameter p in internet order,
  4. n-bytes representation of a BigInteger obtained by invoking the toByteArray() method on the DSA parameter p,
  5. 4-byte count of following bytes representing the DSA parameter q,
  6. n-bytes representation of a BigInteger obtained by invoking the toByteArray() method on the DSA parameter q,
  7. 4-byte count of following bytes representing the DSA parameter g,
  8. n-bytes representation of a BigInteger obtained by invoking the toByteArray() method on the DSA parameter g,
  9. 4-byte count of following bytes representing the DSA parameter x,
  10. n-bytes representation of a BigInteger obtained by invoking the toByteArray() method on the DSA parameter x,
Specified by:
encodePrivateKey in interface IKeyPairCodec
Parameters:
key - the key to encode.
Returns:
the Raw format encoding of the designated key.
Throws:
IllegalArgumentException - if the designated key is not a DSS (Digital Signature Standard) one.

encodePublicKey

public byte[] encodePublicKey(PublicKey key)
Returns the encoded form of the designated DSS (Digital Signature Standard) public key according to the Raw format supported by this library.

The Raw format for a DSA public key, in this implementation, is a byte sequence consisting of the following:

  1. 4-byte magic consisting of the value of the literal Registry.MAGIC_RAW_DSS_PUBLIC_KEY,
  2. 1-byte version consisting of the constant: 0x01,
  3. 4-byte count of following bytes representing the DSA parameter p in internet order,
  4. n-bytes representation of a BigInteger obtained by invoking the toByteArray() method on the DSA parameter p,
  5. 4-byte count of following bytes representing the DSA parameter q,
  6. n-bytes representation of a BigInteger obtained by invoking the toByteArray() method on the DSA parameter q,
  7. 4-byte count of following bytes representing the DSA parameter g,
  8. n-bytes representation of a BigInteger obtained by invoking the toByteArray() method on the DSA parameter g,
  9. 4-byte count of following bytes representing the DSA parameter y,
  10. n-bytes representation of a BigInteger obtained by invoking the toByteArray() method on the DSA parameter y,
Specified by:
encodePublicKey in interface IKeyPairCodec
Parameters:
key - the key to encode.
Returns:
the Raw format encoding of the designated key.
Throws:
IllegalArgumentException - if the designated key is not a DSS (Digital Signature Standard) one.

getFormatID

public int getFormatID()
Specified by:
getFormatID in interface IKeyPairCodec
