Class ExemptionMechanismSpi

java.lang.Object

javax.crypto.ExemptionMechanismSpi

public abstract class ExemptionMechanismSpi extends Object

This class defines the Service Provider Interface (SPI) for the ExemptionMechanism class. All the abstract methods in this class must be implemented by each cryptographic service provider who wishes to supply the implementation of a particular exemption mechanism.

Since:: 1.4

ExemptionMechanismSpi

public ExemptionMechanismSpi()

Constructor for subclasses to call.

Method Details

engineGetOutputSize

protected abstract int engineGetOutputSize(int inputLen)

Returns the length in bytes that an output buffer would need to be in order to hold the result of the next engineGenExemptionBlob operation, given the input length inputLen (in bytes).

The actual output length of the next engineGenExemptionBlob call may be smaller than the length returned by this method.

Parameters:: inputLen - the input length (in bytes)
Returns:: the required output buffer size (in bytes)

engineInit

protected abstract void engineInit(Key key) throws InvalidKeyException, ExemptionMechanismException

Initializes this exemption mechanism with a key.

If this exemption mechanism requires any algorithm parameters that cannot be derived from the given key, the underlying exemption mechanism implementation is supposed to generate the required parameters itself (using provider-specific default values); in the case that algorithm parameters must be specified by the caller, an InvalidKeyException is raised.

Parameters:: key - the key for this exemption mechanism
Throws:: InvalidKeyException - if the given key is inappropriate for this exemption mechanism.; ExemptionMechanismException - if problem(s) encountered in the process of initializing.

engineInit

protected abstract void engineInit(Key key, AlgorithmParameterSpec params) throws InvalidKeyException, InvalidAlgorithmParameterException, ExemptionMechanismException

Initializes this exemption mechanism with a key and a set of algorithm parameters.

If this exemption mechanism requires any algorithm parameters and params is null, the underlying exemption mechanism implementation is supposed to generate the required parameters itself (using provider-specific default values); in the case that algorithm parameters must be specified by the caller, an InvalidAlgorithmParameterException is raised.

Parameters:: key - the key for this exemption mechanism; params - the algorithm parameters
Throws:: InvalidKeyException - if the given key is inappropriate for this exemption mechanism.; InvalidAlgorithmParameterException - if the given algorithm parameters are inappropriate for this exemption mechanism.; ExemptionMechanismException - if problem(s) encountered in the process of initializing.

engineInit

protected abstract void engineInit(Key key, AlgorithmParameters params) throws InvalidKeyException, InvalidAlgorithmParameterException, ExemptionMechanismException

Initializes this exemption mechanism with a key and a set of algorithm parameters.

Parameters:: key - the key for this exemption mechanism; params - the algorithm parameters
Throws:: InvalidKeyException - if the given key is inappropriate for this exemption mechanism.; InvalidAlgorithmParameterException - if the given algorithm parameters are inappropriate for this exemption mechanism.; ExemptionMechanismException - if problem(s) encountered in the process of initializing.

engineGenExemptionBlob

protected abstract byte[] engineGenExemptionBlob() throws ExemptionMechanismException

Generates the exemption mechanism key blob.

Returns:: the new buffer with the result key blob.
Throws:: ExemptionMechanismException - if problem(s) encountered in the process of generating.

engineGenExemptionBlob

protected abstract int engineGenExemptionBlob(byte[] output, int outputOffset) throws ShortBufferException, ExemptionMechanismException

Generates the exemption mechanism key blob, and stores the result in the output buffer, starting at outputOffset inclusive.

If the output buffer is too small to hold the result, a ShortBufferException is thrown. In this case, repeat this call with a larger output buffer. Use engineGetOutputSize to determine how big the output buffer should be.

Parameters:: output - the buffer for the result; outputOffset - the offset in output where the result is stored
Returns:: the number of bytes stored in output
Throws:: ShortBufferException - if the given output buffer is too small to hold the result.; ExemptionMechanismException - if problem(s) encountered in the process of generating.
