Package net.i2p.data

Class PrivateKey

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    Serializable, DataStructure
    public class PrivateKey
extends SimpleDataStructure
    Defines the PrivateKey as defined by the I2P data structure spec. A private key is 256byte Integer. The private key represents only the exponent, not the primes, which are constant and defined in the crypto spec. As of release 0.9.38, keys of arbitrary length and type are supported. See EncType.

      • getType

        public EncType getType()
        Returns:
        non-null
        Since:
        0.9.38

      • toPublic

        public PublicKey toPublic()
        derives a new PublicKey object derived from the secret contents of this PrivateKey
        Returns:
        a PublicKey object
        Throws:
        IllegalArgumentException - on bad key

      • hashCode

        public int hashCode()
        We assume the data has enough randomness in it, so use the last 4 bytes for speed. Overridden since we use short exponents, so the first 227 bytes are all zero.
        Overrides:
        hashCode in class SimpleDataStructure

      • equals

        public boolean equals​(Object obj)
        Description copied from class: SimpleDataStructure
        Warning - this returns true for two different classes with the same size and same data, e.g. SessionKey and SessionTag, but you wouldn't put them in the same Set, would you?
        Overrides:
        equals in class SimpleDataStructure
