All Methods Instance Methods Concrete Methods
Modifier and Type	Method	Description
`KeyGenerator`	`createKeyGenerator()`	Create a default key generator instance with the algorithm the factory is responsible for.
`KeyGenerator`	`createKeyGenerator(KeyGeneratorDef definition)`	Create a key generator instance from the given definition with the algorithm the factory is responsible for.
`java.lang.String`	`getAlgorithmName()`	Get name of key generator algorithm.
`boolean`	`hasMandatoryParameters()`	Does the algorithm has mandatory parameters and therefore requires a key generator definition in mapping file?

- Constructor Detail
  - UUIDKeyGeneratorFactory
```
public UUIDKeyGeneratorFactory()
```
- Method Detail
  - getAlgorithmName
```
public java.lang.String getAlgorithmName()
```
    Get name of key generator algorithm.
    
    Specified by:
    
    getAlgorithmName in interface KeyGeneratorFactory
    
    Returns:
    
    Name of key generator algorithm.
  - hasMandatoryParameters
```
public boolean hasMandatoryParameters()
```
    Does the algorithm has mandatory parameters and therefore requires a key generator definition in mapping file?
    
    Specified by:
    
    hasMandatoryParameters in interface KeyGeneratorFactory
    
    Returns:
    
    true if algorithm has mandatory parameters and therefore requires a key generator definition in mapping file. false if algorithm does not require parameters or has only optional parameters.
  - createKeyGenerator
```
public KeyGenerator createKeyGenerator()
```
    Create a default key generator instance with the algorithm the factory is responsible for. This is only possible for those algorithms that do not require mandatory parameters.
    
    Specified by:
    
    createKeyGenerator in interface KeyGeneratorFactory
    
    Returns:
    
    A default key generator instance with the algorithm the factory is responsible for.
  - createKeyGenerator
```
public KeyGenerator createKeyGenerator(KeyGeneratorDef definition)
                                throws GeneratorException
```
    Create a key generator instance from the given definition with the algorithm the factory is responsible for.
    
    Specified by:
    
    createKeyGenerator in interface KeyGeneratorFactory
    
    Parameters:
    
    definition - The definition to initialize the key generator.
    
    Returns:
    
    A key generator instance initialized with given definition with the algorithm the factory is responsible for.
    
    Throws:
    
    GeneratorException - If failed to create a key generator instance.
