CryptoPrimitive
is an enumeration in Java that defines various cryptographic primitives.
It includes primitives for symmetric and asymmetric cryptography, hashing, and random number generation.
This enum inherits methods from java.lang.Enum
and java.lang.Object
for object comparison and manipulation.
Each enum value represents a specific cryptographic function, such as block cipher, key agreement, or signature.
Developers can use CryptoPrimitive
to specify the type of cryptographic operation being performed.
An enumeration of cryptographic primitives.
Inherited Method Summary
From class
java.lang.Enum
final
Object
clone ()
Throws CloneNotSupportedException.
final
int
final
boolean
equals (
Object other)
Returns true if the specified object is equal to this
enum constant.
final
void
finalize ()
enum classes cannot have finalize methods.
final
Class <CryptoPrimitive >
getDeclaringClass ()
Returns the Class object corresponding to this enum constant's
enum type.
final
int
hashCode ()
Returns a hash code for this enum constant.
final
String
name ()
Returns the name of this enum constant, exactly as declared in its
enum declaration.
final
int
ordinal ()
Returns the ordinal of this enumeration constant (its position
in its enum declaration, where the initial constant is assigned
an ordinal of zero).
String
toString ()
Returns the name of this enum constant, as contained in the
declaration.
static
<T extends Enum <T>>
T
valueOf (
Class <T> enumType,
String name)
Returns the enum constant of the specified enum type with the
specified name.
From class
java.lang.Object
Object
clone ()
Creates and returns a copy of this Object
.
boolean
equals (
Object obj)
Compares this instance with the specified object and indicates if they
are equal.
void
finalize ()
Invoked when the garbage collector has detected that this instance is no longer reachable.
final
Class <?>
getClass ()
Returns the unique instance of
Class
that represents this
object's class.
int
hashCode ()
Returns an integer hash code for this object.
final
void
notify ()
Causes a thread which is waiting on this object's monitor (by means of
calling one of the wait()
methods) to be woken up.
final
void
notifyAll ()
Causes all threads which are waiting on this object's monitor (by means
of calling one of the wait()
methods) to be woken up.
String
toString ()
Returns a string containing a concise, human-readable description of this
object.
final
void
wait (long timeout, int nanos)
Causes the calling thread to wait until another thread calls the notify()
or notifyAll()
method of this object or until the
specified timeout expires.
final
void
wait (long timeout)
Causes the calling thread to wait until another thread calls the notify()
or notifyAll()
method of this object or until the
specified timeout expires.
final
void
wait ()
Causes the calling thread to wait until another thread calls the notify()
or notifyAll()
method of this object.

Key actions include comparing enums for order (`compareTo`), checking equality (`equals`), retrieving the class (`getDeclaringClass`, `getClass`), and obtaining the name (`name`) or its position (`ordinal`). It also allows the calculation of a hash code (`hashCode`), and the conversion of an object to a string (`toString`). The class provides static `valueOf` to find enums by name. Core enum values are `BLOCK_CIPHER`, `KEY_AGREEMENT`, `KEY_ENCAPSULATION`, `KEY_WRAP`, `MAC`, `MESSAGE_DIGEST`, `PUBLIC_KEY_ENCRYPTION`, `SECURE_RANDOM`, `SIGNATURE`, `STREAM_CIPHER`.\n"]]
