public class AlgorithmParameters
extends Object
extends Object

This class is used as an opaque representation of cryptographic parameters.

An AlgorithmParameters object for managing the parameters for a particular algorithm can be obtained by calling one of the getInstance factory methods (static methods that return instances of a given class).

Once an AlgorithmParameters object is obtained, it must be initialized via a call to init, using an appropriate parameter specification or parameter encoding.

A transparent parameter specification is obtained from an AlgorithmParameters object via a call to getParameterSpec, and a byte encoding of the parameters is obtained via a call to getEncoded.

Since:: 1.2
See Also:: AlgorithmParameterSpec, DSAParameterSpec, KeyPairGenerator

                                       throws NoSuchAlgorithmException

Returns a parameter object for the specified algorithm.

This method traverses the list of registered security Providers, starting with the most preferred Provider. A new AlgorithmParameters object encapsulating the AlgorithmParametersSpi implementation from the first Provider that supports the specified algorithm is returned.

Note that the list of registered providers may be retrieved via the Security.getProviders() method.

The returned parameter object must be initialized via a call to init, using an appropriate parameter specification or parameter encoding.

Parameters:: algorithm - the name of the algorithm requested. See Appendix A in the Java Cryptography Architecture API Specification & Reference for information about standard algorithm names.
Returns:: the new parameter object.
Throws:: NoSuchAlgorithmException - if no Provider supports an AlgorithmParametersSpi implementation for the specified algorithm.

getInstance

public static AlgorithmParameters getInstance(String algorithm,

                                              NoSuchProviderException

Returns a parameter object for the specified algorithm.

A new AlgorithmParameters object encapsulating the AlgorithmParametersSpi implementation from the specified provider is returned. The specified provider must be registered in the security provider list.

Note that the list of registered providers may be retrieved via the Security.getProviders() method.

The returned parameter object must be initialized via a call to init, using an appropriate parameter specification or parameter encoding.

Parameters:: algorithm - the name of the algorithm requested. See Appendix A in the Java Cryptography Architecture API Specification & Reference for information about standard algorithm names.; provider - the name of the provider.
Returns:: the new parameter object.
Throws:: NoSuchAlgorithmException - if an AlgorithmParametersSpi implementation for the specified algorithm is not available from the specified provider.; NoSuchProviderException - if the specified provider is not registered in the security provider list.; IllegalArgumentException - if the provider name is null or empty.
