Class AlgorithmId

java.lang.Object

sun.security.x509.AlgorithmId

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable

public class AlgorithmId
extends Object
implements Serializable

Use this class to get OID of supported algorithms see get(String) The OID is handled in it's String format in this class. example 1.2.840.113549.1.1.11 for "SHA256withRSA"

Constructor Detail

AlgorithmId

@Deprecated
public AlgorithmId()

Deprecated. use one of the other constructors.

Constructs an algorithm ID which will be initialized separately, for example by deserialization.

AlgorithmId

public AlgorithmId(String oid)

Constructs a parameterless algorithm ID.

Parameters:

oid - the identifier for the algorithm

Method Detail

getOID

public final String getOID()

Returns the ISO OID for this algorithm. This is usually converted to a string and used as part of an algorithm name, for example "OID.1.3.14.3.2.13" style notation. Use the getName call when you do not need to ensure cross-system portability of algorithm names, or need a user friendly name.

Returns:

equals

public boolean equals(AlgorithmId other)

Returns true iff the argument indicates the same algorithm with the same parameters.

Parameters:

other -

Returns:

equals

public boolean equals(@Nullable
                      Object other)

Compares this AlgorithmID to another. If algorithm parameters are available, they are compared. Otherwise, just the object IDs for the algorithm are compared.

Overrides:

equals in class Object

Parameters:

other - preferably an AlgorithmId, else an ObjectIdentifier

Returns:

true if this object is the same as the obj argument; false otherwise.

See Also:

Object.hashCode(), HashMap

equals

public final boolean equals(String id)

Compares two algorithm IDs for equality. Returns true iff they are the same algorithm, ignoring algorithm parameters.

hashCode

public int hashCode()

Returns a hashcode for this AlgorithmId.

Overrides:

hashCode in class Object

Returns:

a hashcode for this AlgorithmId.

Object.equals(java.lang.Object), System.identityHashCode(java.lang.Object)

getAlgorithmId

@Deprecated
public static AlgorithmId getAlgorithmId(String algname)
                                               throws NoSuchAlgorithmException

Deprecated. use the short get form of this method.

Returns one of the algorithm IDs most commonly associated with this algorithm name.

Parameters:

algname - the name being used

Throws:

NoSuchAlgorithmException - on error.

get

public static AlgorithmId get(String algname)
                       throws NoSuchAlgorithmException

Returns one of the algorithm IDs most commonly associated with this algorithm name.

Parameters:

algname - the name being used

Throws:

NoSuchAlgorithmException - on error.

makeSigAlg

public static String makeSigAlg(String digAlg,
                                String encAlg)

Creates a signature algorithm name from a digest algorithm name and a encryption algorithm name.

getEncAlgFromSigAlg

public static String getEncAlgFromSigAlg(String signatureAlgorithm)

Extracts the encryption algorithm name from a signature algorithm name.

getDigAlgFromSigAlg

public static String getDigAlgFromSigAlg(String signatureAlgorithm)

Extracts the digest algorithm name from a signature algorithm name.
