Detailed Description

Interface for crypto material.

GeneratableCryptoMaterial() is an interface for crypto material, such as private keys and crypto parameters. Derived classes offer public methods such as GenerateRandom() and GenerateRandomWithKeySize().

Member Function Documentation

◆ GenerateRandom()

virtual void GeneratableCryptoMaterial::GenerateRandom ( RandomNumberGenerator rng,
const NameValuePairs params = g_nullNameValuePairs 
)
inlinevirtual

Generate a random key or crypto parameters.

Parameters
rnga RandomNumberGenerator to produce keying material
paramsadditional initialization parameters
Exceptions
KeyingErrif a key can't be generated or algorithm parameters are invalid

If a derived class does not override GenerateRandom(), then the base class throws NotImplemented.

Reimplemented in ed25519PrivateKey, x25519, DL_PrivateKeyImpl< GP >, InvertibleRWFunction, InvertibleRSAFunction, InvertibleRabinFunction, InvertibleLUCFunction, DL_GroupParameters_DSA, DL_GroupParameters_IntegerBased, InvertibleESIGNFunction, and DL_GroupParameters_EC< EC >.

Definition at line 2525 of file cryptlib.h.

◆ GenerateRandomWithKeySize()

void GeneratableCryptoMaterial::GenerateRandomWithKeySize ( RandomNumberGenerator rng,
unsigned int  keySize 
)

Generate a random key or crypto parameters.

Parameters
rnga RandomNumberGenerator to produce keying material
keySizethe size of the key, in bits
Exceptions
KeyingErrif a key can't be generated or algorithm parameters are invalid

GenerateRandomWithKeySize calls GenerateRandom() with a NameValuePairs object with only "KeySize"
