Enum Constant Detail

RSA

public static final PublicKeyAlgorithmIdentifier RSA

RSA encryption
OID: 1.2.840.113549.1.1.1

DSA

public static final PublicKeyAlgorithmIdentifier DSA

DSA encryption
OID: 1.2.840.10040.4.1

Method Detail

values

public static PublicKeyAlgorithmIdentifier[] values()

Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:

for (PublicKeyAlgorithmIdentifier c : PublicKeyAlgorithmIdentifier.values())
    System.out.println(c);

Returns:

an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

valueOf

public static PublicKeyAlgorithmIdentifier valueOf(String name)

Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)

Parameters:

name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.

Returns:

the enum constant with the specified name

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name

NullPointerException - if the argument is null

getId

public String getId()

Gets the object identifier (OID) of the public key algorithm.

Returns:

The object identifier (OID) of the public key algorithm.

getName

public String getName()

Gets the name of the public key algorithm.

Returns:

The name of the public key algorithm.
