    - #### getEncoded

          public byte[] getEncoded()
                            throws java.io.IOException

      Description copied from interface: `Encodable`
      Return a byte array representing the implementing object.
      Specified by:
        `getEncoded` in interface `Encodable`
      Returns:
        a byte array representing the encoding.
      Throws:
        `java.io.IOException` - if an issue arises generation the encoding.

    - #### toByteArray

          @Deprecated
          public byte[] toByteArray()

      Deprecated. use getEncoded() - this method will become private.
      Description copied from interface: `XMSSStoreableObjectInterface`
      Create byte representation of object.
      Specified by:
        `toByteArray` in interface `XMSSStoreableObjectInterface`
      Returns:
        Byte representation of object.

    - #### getIndex

          public long getIndex()

    - #### getUsagesRemaining

          public long getUsagesRemaining()

    - #### getSecretKeySeed

          public byte[] getSecretKeySeed()

    - #### getSecretKeyPRF

          public byte[] getSecretKeyPRF()

    - #### getPublicSeed

          public byte[] getPublicSeed()

    - #### getRoot

          public byte[] getRoot()

    - #### getParameters

          public XMSSMTParameters getParameters()

    - #### getNextKey

          public XMSSMTPrivateKeyParameters getNextKey()

    - #### extractKeyShard

          public XMSSMTPrivateKeyParameters extractKeyShard(int usageCount)

      Return a key that can be used usageCount times.

      Note: this will use the range [index...index + usageCount) for the current key.

      Parameters:
        `usageCount` - the number of usages the key should have.
      Returns:
        a key based on the current key that can be used usageCount times.
