      extended byoracle.security.crypto.core.DHKeyAgreement


public final class DHKeyAgreement
extends KeyAgreement

*** For internal use only *** Implements the Diffie-Hellman algorithm for static shared secret generation, as specified in ANSI X9.42.

To generate a secret key value, the local party private key and the other party public key must be present. If parameters are missing from any of the keys, they should be known from the application envrionment and must be set before using this class.

Status: Provisional (may be changed in future releases.)
