/**
* The AlgorithmParameterGenerator
class is used to generate a
* set of
* parameters to be used with a certain algorithm. Parameter generators
* are constructed using the getInstance
factory methods
* (static methods that return instances of a given class).
*
*
The object that will generate the parameters can be initialized * in two different ways: in an algorithm-independent manner, or in an * algorithm-specific manner: * *
* *
In case the client does not explicitly initialize the
* AlgorithmParameterGenerator
* (via a call to an init
method), each provider must supply (and
* document) a default initialization. For example, the Sun provider uses a
* default modulus prime size of 1024 bits for the generation of DSA
* parameters.
*
*
Android provides the following AlgorithmParameterGenerator
algorithms:
*
Name | *Supported (API Levels) | *
---|---|
AES | *1–8 | *
DES | *1–8 | *
DESede | *1–8 | *
DH | *1+ | *
DSA | *1+ | *
