class MacSpi

java.lang.Object javax.crypto.MacSpi

public abstract class MacSpi
extends Object

This class defines the Service Provider Interface (SPI) for the Mac 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 MAC algorithm.

Implementations are free to implement the Cloneable interface.

MacSpi

public MacSpi()

clone

public Object clone()
             throws CloneNotSupportedException

Returns a clone if the implementation is cloneable.

Overrides:

clone in class Object

Returns:

a clone if the implementation is cloneable.

Throws:

CloneNotSupportedException - if this is called on an implementation that does not support Cloneable.

engineDoFinal

protected abstract byte[] engineDoFinal()

Completes the MAC computation and resets the MAC for further use, maintaining the secret key that the MAC was initialized with.

Returns:

the MAC result.

engineGetMacLength

protected abstract int engineGetMacLength()

Returns the length of the MAC in bytes.

Returns:

the MAC length in bytes.

engineInit

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

Initializes the MAC with the given (secret) key and algorithm parameters.

Parameters:

key - the (secret) key.

params - the algorithm parameters.

Throws:

InvalidKeyException - if the given key is inappropriate for initializing this MAC.

InvalidAlgorithmParameterException - if the given algorithm parameters are inappropriate for this MAC.

engineReset

protected abstract void engineReset()

Resets the MAC for further use, maintaining the secret key that the MAC was initialized with.

engineUpdate

protected abstract void engineUpdate(byte input)

Processes the given byte.

Parameters:

input - the input byte to be processed.

engineUpdate

protected void engineUpdate(ByteBuffer input)

Processes input.remaining() bytes in the ByteBuffer input, starting at input.position(). Upon return, the buffer's position will be equal to its limit; its limit will not have changed.

Subclasses should consider overriding this method if they can process ByteBuffers more efficiently than byte arrays.

Parameters:

input - the ByteBuffer

engineUpdate

protected abstract void engineUpdate(byte[] input,
                                     int offset,
                                     int len)

Processes the first len bytes in input, starting at offset inclusive.

Parameters:

input - the input buffer.

offset - the offset in input where the input starts.

len - the number of bytes to process.
