Constructor Detail

X942KDFPseudoRandomSource

public X942KDFPseudoRandomSource(byte[] sharedSecret,
                                 OID algorithmID,
                                 byte[] partyAInfo,
                                 byte[] partyBInfo,
                                 byte[] suppPrivateInfo,
                                 byte[] suppPublicInfo)
Creates an X942KDFPseudoRandomSource object using the given parameters and the default SHA-1 digest. Optional parameters may be null.

The intended use of this PseudoRandomSource is in order to create a shared secret key between two people ( party A and party B ). So the javadocs refer to the different parameters as belonging to one party or the other. That does not restrict the use of this PseudoRandomSource, however. The parameters could all be created by one user and passed in.

Note: While there is no restriction on what OID you can pass into this constructor, the intention is that you would pass the OID representing the symmetric key algorithm you wish to make a key for. For example, suppose you wished to create a Triple DES key, you could create it as follows. Assume sharedSecret has been set. We'll assume the optional parameters are null for clarity sake.


    X942KDFPseudoRandomSource source = new X942KDFPseudoRandomSource( sharedSecret, 
                                                                      OIDs.getOID( OIDs.desEDE3CBC ), 
                                                                      null, null, null );
    byte[] keyData = source.getBytes( TripleDESKey.LENGTH );
    TripleDESKey key = new TripleDESKey( keyData );

 
Some other useful OIDs you could use are OIDs.AES_128_CBC ( and the other AES oids ), OIDs.rc2CBC, etc..

Parameters:
sharedSecret - A byte array containing the shared secret generated by a key-agreement scheme.
algorithmID - The OID of the symmetric key algorithm with which the generated key will be used. No limits are placed on the type of OID you pass in, though, so it can be any OID.
partyAInfo - A byte array containing information provided by party A. This parameter is can be null.
partyBInfo - A byte array containing information provided by party B. This parameter is can be null.
suppPrivateInfo - A byte array containing additional, mutually-known private information. This parameter is can be null.
suppPublicInfo - A byte array containing additional, mutually-known public information. This parameter is can be null.
