Class DHBasicAgreement

java.lang.Object
  org.bouncycastle.crypto.agreement.DHBasicAgreement

All Implemented Interfaces:

BasicAgreement

public class DHBasicAgreement
extends java.lang.Object
implements BasicAgreement

a Diffie-Hellman key agreement class.

note: This is only the basic algorithm, it doesn't take advantage of long term public keys if they are available. See the DHAgreement class for a "better" implementation.

Constructor Summary

DHBasicAgreement()

Method Summary

java.math.BigInteger	calculateAgreement(CipherParameters pubKey) given a short term public key from a given party calculate the next message in the agreement sequence.
int	getFieldSize() return the field size for the agreement algorithm in bytes.
void	init(CipherParameters param) initialise the agreement engine.
