javax.crypto.spec
class DHGenParameterSpec

java.lang.Object extended by javax.crypto.spec.DHGenParameterSpec
All Implemented Interfaces:
AlgorithmParameterSpec
public class DHGenParameterSpec
extends Object
implements AlgorithmParameterSpec

This class specifies the set of parameters used for generating Diffie-Hellman (system) parameters for use in Diffie-Hellman key agreement. This is typically done by a central authority.

The central authority, after computing the parameters, must send this information to the parties looking to agree on a secret key.

Constructor Summary
DHGenParameterSpec(int primeSize, int exponentSize)

          Constructs a parameter set for the generation of Diffie-Hellman (system) parameters.
 
Method Summary
 int
getExponentSize()

          Returns the size in bits of the random exponent (private value).
 int
getPrimeSize()

          Returns the size in bits of the prime modulus.

Constructor Detail

DHGenParameterSpec

public DHGenParameterSpec(int primeSize,
                          int exponentSize)
Constructs a parameter set for the generation of Diffie-Hellman (system) parameters. The constructed parameter set can be used to initialize an {@link java.security.AlgorithmParameterGenerator AlgorithmParameterGenerator} object for the generation of Diffie-Hellman parameters.

Parameters:
primeSize - the size (in bits) of the prime modulus.
exponentSize - the size (in bits) of the random exponent.
Method Detail

getExponentSize

public int getExponentSize()
Returns the size in bits of the random exponent (private value).

Returns:
the size in bits of the random exponent (private value)

getPrimeSize

public int getPrimeSize()
Returns the size in bits of the prime modulus.

Returns:
the size in bits of the prime modulus
