DHGenParameterSpec

public class DHGenParameterSpec
extends Object implements AlgorithmParameterSpec

java.lang.Object
   ↳ javax.crypto.spec.DHGenParameterSpec


This class specifies the set of parameters used for generating Diffie-Hellman (system) parameters for use in Diffie-Hellman key agreement. This is typically done by a central authority.

The central authority, after computing the parameters, must send this information to the parties looking to agree on a secret key.

DHGenParameterSpec (int primeSize, 
                int exponentSize)

Constructs a parameter set for the generation of Diffie-Hellman (system) parameters. The constructed parameter set can be used to initialize an AlgorithmParameterGenerator object for the generation of Diffie-Hellman parameters.

Parameters
primeSize int: the size (in bits) of the prime modulus.
exponentSize int: the size (in bits) of the random exponent.
