Method Detail

createNew

public static RSAKey[] createNew()

Create a new RSAKey pair with a length of 400 bits and using the current time as the random seed.

Returns:

An array of two keys - either one of which can be the private or public key.

createNew

public static RSAKey[] createNew(int bitlen,
                                 long seed)

Create a new RSAKey pair. Note that this method can take quite some time to execute, depending on the bit size required.

Parameters:

bitlen - the number of bits for each key.

seed - any random seed value.

Returns:

An array of two keys - either one of which can be the private or public key.
