Package javax.crypto.spec Description

Provides classes and interfaces for key specifications and algorithm parameter specifications.

A key specification is a transparent representation of the key material that constitutes a key. A key may be specified in an algorithm-specific way, or in an algorithm-independent encoding format (such as ASN.1).

An algorithm parameter specification is a transparent representation of the sets of parameters used with an algorithm.
