  • Method Details

    • init

      void init(CipherParameters params) throws IllegalArgumentException
      Initialise the MAC.
      Parameters:
      params - the key and other data required by the MAC.
      Throws:
      IllegalArgumentException - if the params argument is inappropriate.
    • getAlgorithmName

      String getAlgorithmName()
      Return the name of the algorithm the MAC implements.
      Returns:
      the name of the algorithm the MAC implements.
    • getMacSize

      int getMacSize()
      Return the block size for this MAC (in bytes).
      Returns:
      the block size for this MAC in bytes.
    • update

      void update(byte in) throws IllegalStateException
      add a single byte to the mac for processing.
      Parameters:
      in - the byte to be processed.
      Throws:
      IllegalStateException - if the MAC is not initialised.
    • update

      void update(byte[] in, int inOff, int len) throws DataLengthException, IllegalStateException
      Parameters:
      in - the array containing the input.
      inOff - the index in the array the data begins at.
      len - the length of the input starting at inOff.
      Throws:
      IllegalStateException - if the MAC is not initialised.
      DataLengthException - if there isn't enough data in in.
    • doFinal

      int doFinal(byte[] out, int outOff) throws DataLengthException, IllegalStateException
      Compute the final stage of the MAC writing the output to the out parameter.

      doFinal leaves the MAC in the same state it was after the last init.

      Parameters:
      out - the array the MAC is to be output to.
      outOff - the offset into the out buffer the output is to start at.
      Throws:
      DataLengthException - if there isn't enough space in out.
      IllegalStateException - if the MAC is not initialised.
    • reset

      void reset()
      Reset the MAC. At the end of resetting the MAC should be in the in the same state it was after the last init (if there was one).
