class
DHGenParameterSpec
extends Object
implements
AlgorithmParameterSpec
This class specifies the set of parameters used for generating
Diffie-Hellman (system) parameters for use in Diffie-Hellman key
agreement. This is typically done by a central
authority.
The central authority, after computing the parameters, must send this
information to the parties looking to agree on a secret key.

Public constructors
DHGenParameterSpec
public DHGenParameterSpec (int primeSize,
int exponentSize)
Constructs a parameter set for the generation of Diffie-Hellman

int : the size (in bits) of the prime modulus. |
exponentSize |
int : the size (in bits) of the random exponent. |
Public methods
getExponentSize
public int getExponentSize ()
