Class LMSContext

java.lang.Object
org.bouncycastle.crypto.signers.lms.LMSContext
All Implemented Interfaces:
Digest
public class LMSContext extends Object implements Digest
The digest an LMS or HSS message is absorbed into before it is signed or verified, carrying the one-time key or signature the operation will use. Obtain one from LMSContextBasedSigner.generateLMSContext() or LMSContextBasedVerifier.generateLMSContext(byte[]), feed it the message through the Digest methods, then hand it back to the key. Its contents are read by LMSEngine only.

  • Method Details

    • getAlgorithmName

      public String getAlgorithmName()
      Description copied from interface: Digest
      return the algorithm name
      Specified by:
      getAlgorithmName in interface Digest
      Returns:
      the algorithm name

    • getDigestSize

      public int getDigestSize()
      Description copied from interface: Digest
      return the size, in bytes, of the digest produced by this message digest.
      Specified by:
      getDigestSize in interface Digest
      Returns:
      the size, in bytes, of the digest produced by this message digest.

    • update

      public void update(byte in)
      Description copied from interface: Digest
      update the message digest with a single byte.
      Specified by:
      update in interface Digest
      Parameters:
      in - the input byte to be entered.

    • update

      public void update(byte[] in, int inOff, int len)
      Description copied from interface: Digest
      update the message digest with a block of bytes.
      Specified by:
      update in interface Digest
      Parameters:
      in - the byte array containing the data.
      inOff - the offset into the byte array where the data starts.
      len - the length of the data.

    • doFinal

      public int doFinal(byte[] out, int outOff)
      Description copied from interface: Digest
      close the digest, producing the final digest value. The doFinal call leaves the digest reset.
      Specified by:
      doFinal in interface Digest
      Parameters:
      out - the array the digest is to be copied into.
      outOff - the offset into the out array the digest is to start at.

    • reset

      public void reset()
      Description copied from interface: Digest
      reset the digest back to it's initial state.
      Specified by:
      reset in interface Digest
