Class DSAParametersGenerator

public class DSAParametersGenerator
extends java.lang.Object
generate suitable parameters for DSA, in line with FIPS 186-2.

Method Summary

DSAParameters
generateParameters()
which generates the p and g values from the given parameters, returning the DSAParameters object.
void
init(int size, int certainty, SecureRandom random)
initialise the key generator.

Method Details

generateParameters

public DSAParameters generateParameters()
which generates the p and g values from the given parameters, returning the DSAParameters object.

Note: can take a while...

init

public void init(int size,
                 int certainty,
                 SecureRandom random)
initialise the key generator.
Parameters:
size - size of the key (range 2^512 -> 2^1024 - 64 bit increments)
certainty - measure of robustness of prime (for FIPS 186-2 compliance this should be at least 80).
random - random byte source.
