  • Method Summary

    Modifier and Type
    Method
    Description
    String
    getJcaName()
    Gets the JCA (Java Cryptography Architecture) name.
    int
    getOrder()
    Gets the order for an algorithm where a lower order is seen as more preferable than an algorithm with a higher ordering.
    AlgorithmType
    getType()
    Gets the algorithm type.
    String
    getUri()
    Gets the URI representation of the algorithm.
    boolean
    isBlacklisted()
    Tells whether this algorithm is black-listed, i.e., configured to not be allowed.

  • Method Details

    • getUri

      String getUri()
      Gets the URI representation of the algorithm.
      Returns:
      the URI

    • getType

      AlgorithmType getType()
      Gets the algorithm type.
      Returns:
      the type

    • getJcaName

      String getJcaName()
      Gets the JCA (Java Cryptography Architecture) name.
      Returns:
      the JCA name

    • getOrder

      int getOrder()
      Gets the order for an algorithm where a lower order is seen as more preferable than an algorithm with a higher ordering. The ordering is relative to algorithms of the same type, and also other critera such as key or key length material.
      Returns:
      a positive integer

    • isBlacklisted

      boolean isBlacklisted()
      Tells whether this algorithm is black-listed, i.e., configured to not be allowed.
      Returns:
      true if the algorithm is black-listed and false otherwise
