KeyRep

KeyRep is a standardized representation for serialized Key objects.

Summary

Nested Classes
enum	KeyRep.Type	`Type` enumerates the supported key types.

Inherited Methods

From class java.lang.Object

Object	clone() Creates and returns a copy of this `Object`.
boolean	equals(Object o) Compares this instance with the specified object and indicates if they are equal.
void	finalize() Invoked when the garbage collector has detected that this instance is no longer reachable.
final Class<?>	getClass() Returns the unique instance of `Class` that represents this object's class.
int	hashCode() Returns an integer hash code for this object.
final void	notify() Causes a thread which is waiting on this object's monitor (by means of calling one of the `wait()` methods) to be woken up.
final void	notifyAll() Causes all threads which are waiting on this object's monitor (by means of calling one of the `wait()` methods) to be woken up.
String	toString() Returns a string containing a concise, human-readable description of this object.
final void	wait() Causes the calling thread to wait until another thread calls the `notify()` or `notifyAll()` method of this object.
final void	wait(long millis, int nanos) Causes the calling thread to wait until another thread calls the `notify()` or `notifyAll()` method of this object or until the specified timeout expires.
final void	wait(long millis) Causes the calling thread to wait until another thread calls the `notify()` or `notifyAll()` method of this object or until the specified timeout expires.

Public Constructors

public KeyRep (KeyRep.Type type, String algorithm, String format, byte[] encoded)

Added in API level 1

Constructs a new instance of KeyRep with the specified arguments. The arguments should be obtained from the Key object that has to be serialized.

Parameters

type	the type of the key.
algorithm	the algorithm (obtained by `getAlgorithm()`).
format	the format of the key (obtained by `getFormat()`).
encoded	the encoded `byte[]` (obtained by `getEncoded()`).

Throws

NullPointerException	if `type, algorithm, format or encoded` is `null` .

Protected Methods

protected Object readResolve ()

Added in API level 1

Resolves and returns the Key object. Three KeyRep.Type|format combinations are supported:

Type.PRIVATE | "PKCS#8" : returns a PrivateKey instance, generated from a key factory (suitable for the algorithm) that is initialized with a PKCS8EncodedKeySpec using the encoded key bytes.
Type.SECRET | "RAW" : returns a SecretKeySpec instance, created with the encoded key bytes and the algorithm.
Type.PUBLIC | "X.509": returns a PublicKey instance, generated from a key factory (suitable for the algorithm) that is initialized with a X509EncodedKeySpec using the encoded key bytes.

Returns

the resolved Key object.

Throws

ObjectStreamException	if the `Type`\|format combination is not recognized, or the resolution of any key parameter fails.
