java.security.KeyPairGenerator
public abstract class KeyPairGenerator
KeyPairGenerator
is a class used to generate key-pairs for a
security algorithm.
The KeyPairGenerator
is created with the
getInstance()
Factory methods. It is used to generate a pair of
public and private keys for a specific algorithm and associate this key-pair
with the algorithm parameters it was initialized with.
