  • Method Details

    • getParameters

      T getParameters()
      Return the parameters for this output verifier.
      Returns:
      the verifier's parameters.

    • getValidatingStream

      UpdateOutputStream getValidatingStream()
      Returns a stream that will accept data for the purpose of verifying a previously calculated signature. Use org.bouncycastle.util.io.TeeOutputStream if you want to accumulate the data on the fly as well.
      Returns:
      an UpdateOutputStream

    • isValidated

      boolean isValidated()
      Return true if the data written to the validating stream validates against the underlying implementation.
      Returns:
      true if the data validates, false otherwise.
