0N/AProvides classes and interfaces for key specifications and algorithm
0N/Aparameter specifications.
0N/A<
p>A key specification is a transparent representation of the key
0N/Amaterial that constitutes a key. A key may be specified in an
0N/Aalgorithm-specific way, or in an algorithm-independent encoding format
0N/A(such as ASN.1). This package contains key specifications for
0N/ADiffie-Hellman public and private keys, as well as key specifications for DES,
0N/ATriple DES, and PBE secret keys.
0N/A<
p>An algorithm parameter specification is a transparent representation
0N/Aof the sets of parameters used with an algorithm. This package contains
0N/Aalgorithm parameter specifications for parameters used with the
0N/ADiffie-Hellman, DES, Triple DES, PBE, RC2 and RC5 algorithms.
