The internal buffer stream containing the message's contents.

length

protected int length
The length of the message contents, according to its 4-byte header.

Constructor Details

IncomingMessage

public IncomingMessage(byte[] b)
            throws KeyAgreementException
Constructs an incoming message given the message's encoded form, including its header bytes.
Parameters:
b - the encoded form, including the header bytes, of an incoming message.
Throws:
KeyAgreementException - if the buffer is malformed.

Method Details

fourBytesToLength

public static int fourBytesToLength(byte[] b)
            throws KeyAgreementException
Converts four octets into the number that they represent.
Parameters:
b - the four octets.
Returns:
the length.

getInstance

public static IncomingMessage getInstance(byte[] raw)
Returns an instance of a message given its encoded contents, excluding the message's header bytes.

Calls the method with the same name and three arguments as: getInstance(raw, 0, raw.length).

Parameters:
raw - the encoded form, excluding the header bytes.
Returns:
a new instance of IncomingMessage.

getInstance

public static IncomingMessage getInstance(byte[] raw,
                                          int offset,
                                          int len)
Returns an instance of a message given its encoded contents, excluding the message's header bytes.
Parameters:
raw - the encoded form, excluding the header bytes.
offset - offset where to start using raw bytes from.
len - number of bytes to use.
Returns:
a new instance of IncomingMessage.

hasMoreElements

public boolean hasMoreElements()

readMPI

public BigInteger readMPI()
            throws KeyAgreementException
Decodes an MPI from the current message's contents.
Returns:
a native representation of an MPI.
Throws:
KeyAgreementException - if an encoding exception occurs during the operation.

readPrivateKey

public PrivateKey readPrivateKey()
            throws KeyAgreementException
Decodes a private key from the message.

See OutgoingMessage.writePrivateKey(PrivateKey) for more details.

Throws:
KeyAgreementException - if an encoding size constraint is violated or a mismatch was detected in the encoding.

readPublicKey

public PublicKey readPublicKey()
            throws KeyAgreementException
Decodes a public key from the message.

See OutgoingMessage.writePublicKey(PublicKey) for more details on the internal format.

Throws:
KeyAgreementException - if an encoding size constraint is violated or a mismatch was detected in the encoding.

readString

public String readString()
            throws KeyAgreementException

twoBytesToLength

public static int twoBytesToLength(byte[] b)
            throws KeyAgreementException
Converts two octets into the number that they represent.
Parameters:
b - the two octets.
Returns:
the length.
