oracle.security.crypto.core.DHParameterGenerator
*** For internal use only *** Performs normative generation of (static) Diffie-Hellman domain parameters, as specified in X9.42.
Normally, Diffie-Hellmain parameters are distributed (and generated) by a central agency agreed upon by participating parties, so a DHParameterGenerator
will be invoked far less often than, say, a generator for RSA, DSA (or DH) keypairs.
Parameter generation is also similarly resource intensive: for example, generation of the sample parameters given in Annex D of X9.42 takes about 100 seconds on a Pentium-based JVM.
Status: Provisional (may be changed in future releases.)
