Method Detail

generateKeyPair

boolean generateKeyPair(String userId,
                      String password,
                      OutputStream publicKey,
                      OutputStream secrectKey)

generates a key pair for the given user id with the default key size ( KeyPairGenerator#DEFAULT_KEY_SIZE )

Parameters:

userId - the user id for the PGP key pair

password - the password used to secure the secret (private) key

publicKey - the target stream for the public key

secrectKey - the target stream for the secret (private) key

Returns:

true if the generation was successful

generateKeyPair

boolean generateKeyPair(String userId,
                      String password,
                      int keySize,
                      OutputStream publicKey,
                      OutputStream secrectKey)

generates a key pair for the given user id with a custom key size

Parameters:

userId - the user id for the PGP key pair

password - the password used to secure the secret (private) key

keySize - the custom key size

publicKey - the target stream for the public key

secrectKey - the target stream for the secret (private) key

Returns:

true if the generation was successful
