Class DESedeKeySpec

java.lang.Object
  extended by javax.crypto.spec.DESedeKeySpec
All Implemented Interfaces:
KeySpec

public class DESedeKeySpec
extends Object
implements KeySpec

This class is a transparent wrapper for DES-EDE (Triple-DES) keys, which are arrays of 24 bytes.

Since:
1.4

Field Summary
static int DES_EDE_KEY_LEN
          The length of a triple-DES key, in bytes.
 
Constructor Summary
DESedeKeySpec(byte[] key)
          Create a new DES-EDE key spec, copying the first 24 bytes from the byte array.
DESedeKeySpec(byte[] key, int offset)
          Create a new DES-EDE key spec, starting at offset in the byte array.
 
Method Summary
 byte[] getKey()
          Return the key as a byte array.
static boolean isParityAdjusted(byte[] key, int offset)
          Returns whether or not the given key is parity adjusted; i.e. every byte in the key has an odd number of "1" bits.

Constructor Detail

DESedeKeySpec

public DESedeKeySpec(byte[] key)
              throws InvalidKeyException
Create a new DES-EDE key spec, copying the first 24 bytes from the byte array.

Parameters:
key - The key bytes.
Throws:
InvalidKeyException - If there are less than 24 bytes in the array.

DESedeKeySpec

public DESedeKeySpec(byte[] key,
                     int offset)
              throws InvalidKeyException
Create a new DES-EDE key spec, starting at offset in the byte array. The first 24 bytes starting at offset are copied.

Parameters:
key - The key bytes.
offset - The offset into the byte array at which to begin.
Throws:
InvalidKeyException - If there are less than 24 bytes starting at offset.
Method Detail

isParityAdjusted

public static boolean isParityAdjusted(byte[] key,
                                       int offset)
                                throws InvalidKeyException
Returns whether or not the given key is parity adjusted; i.e. every byte in the key has an odd number of "1" bits.

Parameters:
key - The key bytes, considered between [offset, offset+23]
offset - The offset into the byte array at which to begin.
Returns:
True if all bytes have an odd number of "1" bits.
Throws:
InvalidKeyException - If there are not enough bytes in the array.

getKey

public byte[] getKey()
Return the key as a byte array. This method does not copy the byte array.

Returns:
The key bytes.
