- Direct Known Subclasses:
KeyPairGenerator
This class defines the Service Provider Interface (SPI) for the KeyPairGenerator
class, which is used to generate pairs of public and private keys.
All the abstract methods in this class must be implemented by each cryptographic service provider who wishes to supply the implementation of a key pair generator for a particular algorithm.
In case the client does not explicitly initialize the KeyPairGenerator
(via a call to an initialize
method), each provider must supply (and document) a default initialization.

However, note that defaults may vary across different providers. Additionally, the default value for a provider may change in a future version. Therefore, it is recommended to explicitly initialize the KeyPairGenerator
instead of relying on provider-specific defaults.
