jdk.security.Provider$Service — clojure-interop/java.security 1.0.5

The description of a security service. It encapsulates the properties of a service and contains a factory method to obtain new implementation instances of this service.

Each service has a provider that offers the service, a type, an algorithm name, and the name of the class that implements the service. Optionally, it also includes a list of alternate algorithm names for this service (aliases) and attributes, which are a map of (name, value) String pairs.

This class defines the methods supportsParameter() and newInstance() which are used by the Java security framework when it searches for suitable services and instantiates them. The valid arguments to those methods depend on the type of service. For the service types defined within Java SE, see the

Java Cryptography Architecture API Specification & Reference for the valid values. Note that components outside of Java SE can define additional types of services and their behavior.

Instances of this class are immutable.

->service clj

(->service provider type algorithm class-name aliases attributes)

Constructor.

Construct a new service.

provider - the provider that offers this service - java.security.Provider type - the type of this service - java.lang.String algorithm - the algorithm name - java.lang.String class-name - the name of the class implementing this service - java.lang.String aliases - List of aliases or null if algorithm has no aliases - java.util.List attributes - Map of attributes or null if this implementation has no attributes - java.util.Map

throws: java.lang.NullPointerException - if provider, type, algorithm, or className is null

get-algorithm clj

(get-algorithm this)

Return the name of the algorithm of this service. For example, SHA-1.

returns: the algorithm of this service - java.lang.String

get-attribute clj

(get-attribute this name)

Return the value of the specified attribute or null if this attribute is not set for this Service.

name - the name of the requested attribute - java.lang.String

returns: the value of the specified attribute or null if the attribute is not present - java.lang.String

throws: java.lang.NullPointerException - if name is null

get-class-name clj

(get-class-name this)

Return the name of the class implementing this service.

returns: the name of the class implementing this service - java.lang.String

get-provider clj

(get-provider this)

Return the Provider of this service.

returns: the Provider of this service - java.security.Provider

get-type clj

(get-type this)

Get the type of this service. For example, MessageDigest.

returns: the type of this service - java.lang.String

new-instance clj

(new-instance this constructor-parameter)

Return a new instance of the implementation described by this service. The security provider framework uses this method to construct implementations. Applications will typically not need to call it.

The default implementation uses reflection to invoke the standard constructor for this type of service. Security providers can override this method to implement instantiation in a different way. For details and the values of constructorParameter that are valid for the various types of services see the

Java Cryptography Architecture API Specification & Reference.

constructor-parameter - the value to pass to the constructor, or null if this type of service does not use a constructorParameter. - java.lang.Object

returns: a new implementation of this service - java.lang.Object

throws: java.security.InvalidParameterException - if the value of constructorParameter is invalid for this type of service.

supports-parameter clj

(supports-parameter this parameter)

Test whether this Service can use the specified parameter. Returns false if this service cannot use the parameter. Returns true if this service can use the parameter, if a fast test is infeasible, or if the status is unknown.

The security provider framework uses this method with some types of services to quickly exclude non-matching implementations for consideration. Applications will typically not need to call it.

For details and the values of parameter that are valid for the various types of services see the top of this class and the

Java Cryptography Architecture API Specification & Reference. Security providers can override it to implement their own test.

parameter - the parameter to test - java.lang.Object

returns: false if this this service cannot use the specified parameter; true if it can possibly use the parameter - boolean

throws: java.security.InvalidParameterException - if the value of parameter is invalid for this type of service or if this method cannot be used with this type of service

to-string clj

(to-string this)

Return a String representation of this service.

returns: a String representation of this service. - java.lang.String
