Class PBEGenParameterSpec

java.lang.Object

iaik.security.pbe.PBEGenParameterSpec

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.security.spec.AlgorithmParameterSpec

public class PBEGenParameterSpec
extends java.lang.Object
implements java.security.spec.AlgorithmParameterSpec

This class specifies salt length and iteration count to be used for generating algorithm parameters for password based encryption. An instance of this class may be necessary for initializing a PBEParameterGenerator to create PBEParameters. Salt and iteration count are used for creating key material from a password according to PKCS#5/PKCS#12.
