Class Overview

This class defines the Service Provider Interface (SPI) for the KeyManagerFactory 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 key manager factory.

Summary

Public Constructors

public KeyManagerFactorySpi ()

Protected Methods

protected abstract KeyManager[] engineGetKeyManagers ()

Returns one key manager for each type of key material.

Returns
  • the key managers
Throws
IllegalStateException if the KeyManagerFactorySpi is not initialized

protected abstract void engineInit (ManagerFactoryParameters spec)

Initializes this factory with a source of key material.

In some cases, initialization parameters other than a keystore and password may be needed by a provider. Users of that particular provider are expected to pass an implementation of the appropriate ManagerFactoryParameters as defined by the provider. The provider can then call the specified methods in the ManagerFactoryParameters implementation to obtain the needed information.

Parameters
spec an implementation of a provider-specific parameter specification
Throws
InvalidAlgorithmParameterException if there is problem with the parameters

protected abstract void engineInit (KeyStore ks, char[] password)

Initializes this factory with a source of key material.

Parameters
ks the key store or null
password the password for recovering keys
Throws
KeyStoreException if this operation fails
NoSuchAlgorithmException if the specified algorithm is not available from the specified provider.
UnrecoverableKeyException if the key cannot be recovered
