KeyManagerFactory

open class KeyManagerFactory
kotlin.Any
   ↳ javax.net.ssl.KeyManagerFactory

This class acts as a factory for key managers based on a source of key material. Each key manager manages a specific type of key material for use by secure sockets. The key material is based on a KeyStore and/or provider specific sources.

Android provides the following KeyManagerFactory algorithms:

Algorithm Supported API Levels
PKIX 1+

Summary

Protected constructors
KeyManagerFactory(factorySpi: KeyManagerFactorySpi!, provider: Provider!, algorithm: String!)

Creates a KeyManagerFactory object.

Public methods
String!

Returns the algorithm name of this KeyManagerFactory object.

static String!

Obtains the default KeyManagerFactory algorithm name.

static KeyManagerFactory!
getInstance(algorithm: String!)

Returns a KeyManagerFactory object that acts as a factory for key managers.

static KeyManagerFactory!
getInstance(algorithm: String!, provider: String!)

Returns a KeyManagerFactory object that acts as a factory for key managers.

static KeyManagerFactory!
getInstance(algorithm: String!, provider: Provider!)

Returns a KeyManagerFactory object that acts as a factory for key managers.

Array<KeyManager!>!

Returns one key manager for each type of key material.

Provider!

Returns the provider of this KeyManagerFactory object.

Unit
init(ks: KeyStore!, password: CharArray!)

Initializes this factory with a source of key material.

Unit

Initializes this factory with a source of provider-specific key material.

Protected constructors

KeyManagerFactory

Added in API level 1
protected KeyManagerFactory(
    factorySpi: KeyManagerFactorySpi!,
    provider: Provider!,
    algorithm: String!)

Creates a KeyManagerFactory object.

Parameters
factorySpi KeyManagerFactorySpi!: the delegate
provider Provider!: the provider
algorithm String!: the algorithm

Public methods

getAlgorithm

Added in API level 1
fun getAlgorithm(): String!

Returns the algorithm name of this KeyManagerFactory object.

This is the same name that was specified in one of the getInstance calls that created this KeyManagerFactory object.

Return
String! the algorithm name of this KeyManagerFactory object.

getDefaultAlgorithm

Added in API level 1
static fun getDefaultAlgorithm(): String!

Obtains the default KeyManagerFactory algorithm name.

The default algorithm can be changed at runtime by setting the value of the ssl.KeyManagerFactory.algorithm security property to the desired algorithm name.

Return
String! the default algorithm name as specified by the ssl.KeyManagerFactory.algorithm security property, or an implementation-specific default if no such property exists.

getInstance

Added in API level 1
static fun getInstance(algorithm: String!): KeyManagerFactory!

Returns a KeyManagerFactory object that acts as a factory for key managers.

This method traverses the list of registered security Providers, starting with the most preferred Provider. A new KeyManagerFactory object encapsulating the KeyManagerFactorySpi implementation from the first Provider that supports the specified algorithm is returned.

Note that the list of registered providers may be retrieved via the Security.getProviders() method.

Parameters
algorithm String!: the standard name of the requested algorithm. See the Java Secure Socket Extension Reference Guide for information about standard algorithm names.
Return
KeyManagerFactory! the new KeyManagerFactory object.
Exceptions
java.security.NoSuchAlgorithmException if no Provider supports a KeyManagerFactorySpi implementation for the specified algorithm.
java.lang.NullPointerException if algorithm is null.

getInstance

Added in API level 1
static fun getInstance(
    algorithm: String!,
    provider: String!
): KeyManagerFactory!

Returns a KeyManagerFactory object that acts as a factory for key managers.

A new KeyManagerFactory object encapsulating the KeyManagerFactorySpi implementation from the specified provider is returned. The specified provider must be registered in the security provider list.

Note that the list of registered providers may be retrieved via the Security.getProviders() method.

Parameters
algorithm String!: the standard name of the requested algorithm. See the Java Secure Socket Extension Reference Guide for information about standard algorithm names.
provider String!: the name of the provider.
Return
KeyManagerFactory! the new KeyManagerFactory object.
Exceptions
java.security.NoSuchAlgorithmException if a KeyManagerFactorySpi implementation for the specified algorithm is not available from the specified provider.
java.security.NoSuchProviderException if the specified provider is not registered in the security provider list.
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException if the provider name is null or empty.
java.lang.NullPointerException if algorithm is null.

getInstance

Added in API level 1
static fun getInstance(
    algorithm: String!,
    provider: Provider!
): KeyManagerFactory!

Returns a KeyManagerFactory object that acts as a factory for key managers.

A new KeyManagerFactory object encapsulating the KeyManagerFactorySpi implementation from the specified Provider object is returned. Note that the specified Provider object does not have to be registered in the provider list.

Parameters
algorithm String!: the standard name of the requested algorithm. See the Java Secure Socket Extension Reference Guide for information about standard algorithm names.
provider Provider!: an instance of the provider.
Return
KeyManagerFactory! the new KeyManagerFactory object.
Exceptions
java.security.NoSuchAlgorithmException if a KeyManagerFactorySpi implementation for the specified algorithm is not available from the specified Provider object.
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException if provider is null.
java.lang.NullPointerException if algorithm is null.

getKeyManagers

Added in API level 1
fun getKeyManagers(): Array<KeyManager!>!

Returns one key manager for each type of key material.

Return
Array<KeyManager!>! the key managers
Exceptions
java.lang.IllegalStateException if the KeyManagerFactory is not initialized

getProvider

Added in API level 1
fun getProvider(): Provider!

Returns the provider of this KeyManagerFactory object.

Return
Provider! the provider of this KeyManagerFactory object

init

Added in API level 1
fun init(
    ks: KeyStore!,
    password: CharArray!
): Unit

Initializes this factory with a source of key material.

The provider typically uses a KeyStore for obtaining key material for use during secure socket negotiations. The KeyStore is generally password-protected.

For more flexible initialization, please see init(javax.net.ssl.ManagerFactoryParameters).

Parameters
ks KeyStore!: the key store or null
password CharArray!: the password for recovering keys in the KeyStore
Exceptions
java.security.KeyStoreException if this operation fails
java.security.NoSuchAlgorithmException if the specified algorithm is not available from the specified provider.
java.security.UnrecoverableKeyException if the key cannot be recovered (e.g. the given password is wrong).

init

Added in API level 1
fun init(spec: ManagerFactoryParameters!): Unit

Initializes this factory with a source of provider-specific key material.

In some cases, initialization parameters other than a keystore and password may be needed by a provider. Users of that particular provider are expected to pass an implementation of the appropriate ManagerFactoryParameters as defined by the provider. The provider can then call the specified methods in the ManagerFactoryParameters implementation to obtain the needed information.

Parameters
spec ManagerFactoryParameters!: an implementation of a provider-specific parameter specification
Exceptions
java.security.InvalidAlgorithmParameterException if an error is encountered
