Interface TcIHash

All Superinterfaces:

TcIAttributes, TcIWorkingObject

public interface TcIHash
extends TcIWorkingObject, TcIAttributes

A hash value represents a unique value corresponding to a particular set of bytes. This class provides a cryptographically secure way to use these functions for digital signature operations.

Method Summary

TcBlobData	getHashValue() This method returns the hash value of the hash object.
void	setHashValue(TcBlobData hashValue) This method sets the hash value of the hash object.
TcBlobData	sign(TcIRsaKey key) This method signs the hash data of the object with the provided signing key.
void	updateHashValue(TcBlobData data) This method updates the hash object with new data.
void	verifySignature(TcBlobData signature, TcIRsaKey key) This method verifies the hash value of the hash object with a given signature.

Method Detail

sign

TcBlobData sign(TcIRsaKey key)
                throws TcTssException

This method signs the hash data of the object with the provided signing key. The data to be signed must be set previously by calling

Parameters:

key - Key object which should be used for the signature.

Returns:

The resulting signature data.

Throws:

TcTssException

verifySignature

void verifySignature(TcBlobData signature,
                     TcIRsaKey key)
                     throws TcTssException

This method verifies the hash value of the hash object with a given signature. If no exception is thrown, the signature verification could be done successfully.

Parameters:

signature - The signature to be verified.

key - The key which should be used for the signature verification.

Throws:

TcTssException

setHashValue

void setHashValue(TcBlobData hashValue)
                  throws TcTssException

This method sets the hash value of the hash object.

Parameters:

hashValue - The hash value to be set.

Throws:

TcTssException

getHashValue

TcBlobData getHashValue()
                        throws TcTssException

This method returns the hash value of the hash object.

Returns:

Blob containing the hash data.

Throws:

TcTssException

updateHashValue

void updateHashValue(TcBlobData data)
                     throws TcTssException

This method updates the hash object with new data. This method can only be called if the hash object was initialized as a with the TcTssConstants.TSS_HASH_SHA1 init flag. Update means that that the provided data is appended to an internal buffer that already holds the data from previous update operations. The SHA1 hash of this internal buffer can be obtained using the getHashValue() method. Calling updateHashValue(a) and updateHashValue(b) is equivalent to updateHashValue(a + b).

Parameters:

data - Blob containing the data to be updated.

Throws:

TcTssException
