Constructor Detail

PublicKeyAuthenticationInfo

public PublicKeyAuthenticationInfo(byte[] userIdHandle,
                                   int userIdIndex,
                                   java.security.PrivateKey privateKey)

Method Detail

getAuthType

public byte[] getAuthType()

Get the identifier for the type of authentication performed. In this case, the authentication type is AT_SECRET_KEY.

Specified by:

getAuthType in class AuthenticationInfo

authenticate

public byte[] authenticate(ChallengeResponse challenge,
                           AbstractRequest request)
                    throws HandleException

Sign the given nonce and requestDigest given as a challenge to the given request. The implementation of this method should also probably verify that the client did in fact send the specified request, and that the associated digest is a valid digest of the request.

Specified by:

authenticate in class AuthenticationInfo

Returns:

a signature of the concatenation of nonce and requestDigest.

Throws:

HandleException

getUserIdHandle

public byte[] getUserIdHandle()

Get the name of the handle that identifies the user that is represented by this authentication object.

Specified by:

getUserIdHandle in class AuthenticationInfo

getUserIdIndex

public int getUserIdIndex()

Get the index of the handle value that identifies this user. The returned index value of the handle that identifies this user should contain a value with a type (public key, secret key, etc) that corresponds to the way that this user is authenticating.

Specified by:

getUserIdIndex in class AuthenticationInfo

getPrivateKey

public java.security.PrivateKey getPrivateKey()

Return the byte-encoded representation of the secret key.

toString

public java.lang.String toString()

Overrides:

toString in class java.lang.Object
