Method Detail

### buildKey

    public static Key buildKey(byte keyType,
                               short keyLength,
                               boolean keyEncryption)
                        throws CryptoException

  Creates uninitialized cryptographic keys for signature and cipher algorithms. Only instances created by this method may be the key objects used to initialize instances of `Signature`, `Cipher` and `KeyPair`. Note that the object returned must be cast to their appropriate key type interface.

  A call to this method is equivalent to a call to `buildKey(java.lang.String, short, boolean)` with the `keyType` parameter set to the equivalent `String` algorithm name - as listed in the `ALG_*` constants above.

  This method returns an instance of the specified key type supported by the most preferred provider of this cryptographic service. Note that the list of installed providers may be retrieved via the `CryptoServices.getProviders()` method.

  Note:

  - If called from a web application with a key type of `CLEAR_ON_DESELECT` transient type data, this method throws a CryptoException execption with reason code `CryptoException.NO_SUCH_ALGORITHM`

  Parameters:
    `keyType` - the type of key to be generated. Valid codes listed in `TYPE_*` constants. See `TYPE_DES_TRANSIENT_RESET`.
    `keyLength` - the key size in bits. The valid key bit lengths are key type dependent. Some common key lengths are listed above above in the `LENGTH_*` constants. See `LENGTH_DES`.
    `keyEncryption` - if `true` this boolean requests a key implementation which implements the `javacardx.crypto.KeyEncryption` interface. The key implementation returned may implement the `javacardx.crypto.KeyEncryption` interface even when this parameter is `false`.
  Returns:
    the key object instance of the requested key type, length and encrypted access
  Throws:
    `CryptoException` - with the following reason codes:
    - `CryptoException.NO_SUCH_ALGORITHM` if the requested algorithm associated with the specified type, size of key and key encryption interface is not supported, for the caller application type.
    `SecurityException` - if creating an instance of this cryptographic service is not granted.

### buildKey

    public static Key buildKey(String keyType,
                               short keyLength,
                               boolean keyEncryption)
                        throws CryptoException

  Creates uninitialized cryptographic keys for signature and cipher algorithms. Only instances created by this method may be the key objects used to initialize instances of `Signature`, `Cipher` and `KeyPair`. Note that the object returned must be cast to their appropriate key type interface.

  This method returns an instance of the specified key type supported by the most preferred provider of this cryptographic service. Note that the list of installed providers may be retrieved via the `CryptoServices.getProviders()` method.

  Note:

  - If called from a web application with a key type of `CLEAR_ON_DESELECT` transient type data, this method throws a CryptoException execption with reason code CryptoException.NO_SUCH_ALGORITHM

  Parameters:
    `keyType` - the type of key to be generated. Valid names listed in `TYPE_*` constants. See `TYPE_DES_TRANSIENT_RESET`.
    `keyLength` - the key size in bits. The valid key bit lengths are key type dependent. Some common key lengths are listed above above in the `LENGTH_*` constants. See `LENGTH_DES`.
    `keyEncryption` - if `true` this boolean requests a key implementation which implements the `javacardx.crypto.KeyEncryption` interface. The key implementation returned may implement the `javacardx.crypto.KeyEncryption` interface even when this parameter is `false`.
  Returns:
    the key object instance of the requested key type, length and encrypted access
  Throws:
    `CryptoException` - with the following reason codes:
    - `CryptoException.NO_SUCH_ALGORITHM` if the requested algorithm associated with the specified type, size of key and key encryption interface is not supported, for the caller application type.
    `NullPointerException` - if `keyType` is null.
    `SecurityException` - if creating an instance of this cryptographic service is not granted.
