interface
EdECPrivateKey
implements
EdECKey,
PrivateKey
java.security.interfaces.EdECPrivateKey
|
An interface for an elliptic curve private key as defined by
RFC 8032: Edwards-Curve
Digital Signature Algorithm (EdDSA). These keys are distinct from the
keys represented by ECPrivateKey
, and they are intended for use
with algorithms based on RFC 8032 such as the EdDSA Signature
algorithm.
An Edwards-Curve private key is a bit string. This interface only supports bit
string lengths that are a multiple of 8, and the key is represented using
a byte array.

Public methods
getBytes
public abstract Optional<byte[]> getBytes ()
Get a copy of the byte array representing the private key. This method
may return an empty Optional
if the implementation is not
willing to produce the private key value.
Returns |
Optional<byte[]> |
an Optional containing the private key byte array.
If the key is not available, then an empty Optional . |
