EncodedKeySpec
public EncodedKeySpec(byte[] encodedKey)
-
Creates a new EncodedKeySpec with the given encoded key.
- Parameters:
encodedKey
- the encoded key. The contents of the
array are copied to protect against subsequent modification.
getEncoded
public byte[] getEncoded()

Returns the encoded key.
- Returns:
- the encoded key. Returns a new array each time
this method is called.
getFormat
public abstract String getFormat()
-
Returns the name of the encoding format associated with this
key specification.
If the opaque representation of a key
(see {@link java.security.Key Key}) can be transformed
(see {@link java.security.KeyFactory KeyFactory})
into this key specification (or a subclass of it),
getFormat
called
on the opaque key returns the same value as the
getFormat
method
of this key specification.
- Returns:
- a string representation of the encoding format.
