An AlgorithmParameters
object for managing the parameters
* for a particular algorithm can be obtained by
* calling one of the getInstance
factory methods
* (static methods that return instances of a given class).
*
*
There are two ways to request such an implementation: by * specifying either just an algorithm name, or both an algorithm name * and a package provider. * *
Once an AlgorithmParameters
object is returned, it must be
* initialized via a call to init
, using an appropriate parameter
* specification or parameter encoding.
*
*
A transparent parameter specification is obtained from an
* AlgorithmParameters
object via a call to
* getParameterSpec
, and a byte encoding of the parameters is
* obtained via a call to getEncoded
.
