com.ibm.crypto.hdwrCCA.provider.SHA224withECDSA
public final class SHA224withECDSA extends SignatureSpi
This class provides an implementation of the Service Provider Interface (SPI) for the Signature class, which is used to provide the functionality of a digital signature algorithm. Digital signatures are used for authentication and integrity assurance of digital data. The data will be hashed using the SHA224 Secure Hashing Algorithm prior to signature generation.

    • SHA224withECDSA

      public SHA224withECDSA() throws NoSuchAlgorithmException
      Construct a signature object for the Elliptic Curve digital signature algorithm with SHA224 message digest. It must be initialized before it can be used for signing or verifying.
      Throws:
      NoSuchAlgorithmException - if the message digest algorithm can not be found

    • engineInitSign

      protected void engineInitSign(PrivateKey privateKey) throws InvalidKeyException
      Initializes this signature object with the specified Elliptic Curve private key for signing operations.
      Specified by:
      engineInitSign in class SignatureSpi
      Parameters:
      privateKey - the Elliptic Curve private key of the identity whose signature will be generated
      Throws:
      InvalidKeyException - if the key is improperly encoded, parameters are missing, and so on

    • engineInitVerify

      protected void engineInitVerify(PublicKey publicKey) throws InvalidKeyException
      Initializes this signature object with the specified Elliptic Curve public key for verification operations.
      Specified by:
      engineInitVerify in class SignatureSpi
      Parameters:
      publicKey - the Elliptic Curve public key of the identity whose signature is going to be verified
      Throws:
      InvalidKeyException - if the key is improperly encoded, parameters are missing, and so on

    • engineUpdate

      protected void engineUpdate(byte b) throws SignatureException
      Updates the data to be signed or verified using the specified byte.
      Specified by:
      engineUpdate in class SignatureSpi
      Parameters:
      b - the byte to use for the update
      Throws:
      SignatureException - if the engine is not initialized properly

    • engineUpdate

      protected void engineUpdate(byte[] b, int off, int len) throws SignatureException
      Updates the data to be signed or verified, using the specified array of bytes, starting at the specified offset.
      Specified by:
      engineUpdate in class SignatureSpi
      Parameters:
      b - the array of bytes
      off - the offset to start from in the array of bytes
      len - the number of bytes to use, starting at offset
      Throws:
      NullPointerException - if the array of bytes is null
      IndexOutOfBoundsException - if off and len values are not appropriate for the specified array of bytes
      SignatureException - if the engine is not initialized properly

    • engineSign

      protected byte[] engineSign() throws SignatureException
      Returns the signature bytes of all the data updated so far.
      Specified by:
      engineSign in class SignatureSpi
      Returns:
      the signature bytes of the signing operation's result
      Throws:
      SignatureException - if the engine is not initialized properly or if this signature algorithm is unable to process the input data provided

    • engineVerify

      protected boolean engineVerify(byte[] sigBytes) throws SignatureException
      Verifies the passed-in signature.
      Specified by:
      engineVerify in class SignatureSpi
      Parameters:
      sigBytes - the signature bytes to be verified
      Returns:
      true if the signature was verified, false if not
      Throws:
      NullPointerException - if signature bytes to be verified is null
      SignatureException - if the engine is not initialized properly, the passed-in signature is improperly encoded or of the wrong type, if this signature algorithm is unable to process the input data provided, etc
