Class Signature.KeyPair

java.lang.Object

net.openhft.chronicle.salt.Signature.KeyPair

Enclosing class:

Signature

public static class Signature.KeyPair
extends Object

Helper class to handle KeyPair creation Explicitly named static methods are provided to help avoid mistakes from calling the wrong constructor overload Constructors in turn are made private

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
static Signature.KeyPair	deterministic(net.openhft.chronicle.bytes.BytesStore seed) Generate deterministic public/private key pair from BytesStore accessing full 32 seed bytes
static Signature.KeyPair	deterministic(long id) Generate deterministic public/private key pair from simple long id (which only uses 8 out of 32 seed bytes)
static Signature.KeyPair	generate() Generate random public/private key pair
void	wipe() safely wipe the memory backing the secret part of this key pair when finished

Method Detail

generate

public static Signature.KeyPair generate()

Generate random public/private key pair

Returns:

a random public/private key pair

deterministic

public static Signature.KeyPair deterministic(long id)

Generate deterministic public/private key pair from simple long id (which only uses 8 out of 32 seed bytes)

Parameters:

id - - deterministic seed

Returns:

a deterministic public/private key pair

deterministic

public static Signature.KeyPair deterministic(net.openhft.chronicle.bytes.BytesStore seed)

Generate deterministic public/private key pair from BytesStore accessing full 32 seed bytes

Parameters:

seed - - deterministic BytesStore seed, which should be at least 32 bytes

Returns:

a deterministic public/private key pair

wipe

public void wipe()

safely wipe the memory backing the secret part of this key pair when finished
