KeyFactory getAlgorithm() method in Java with Examples
The getAlgorithm() method of java.security.KeyFactory class is used to gets the name of the algorithm associated with this KeyFactory.
Syntax:
public final String getAlgorithm()
Return Value: This method returns the name of the algorithm associated with this KeyFactory.
Below are the examples to illustrate the getAlgorithm() method.
Example 1:
Java
// Java program to demonstrate // getAlgorithm() method import java.security.*; import java.util.*; import java.security.spec.*; public class GFG1 { public static void main(String[] argv) throws Exception { try { // creating object of keyfactory KeyFactory keyFactory = KeyFactory.getInstance( "DSA" ); // getting the algorithm of KeyFactory // using getAlgorithm() method String algo = keyFactory.getAlgorithm(); // printing the algorithm System.out.println( "Algorithm : " + algo); } catch (NoSuchAlgorithmException e) { System.out.println( "Exception thrown : " + e); } catch (ProviderException e) { System.out.println( "Exception thrown : " + e); } } } |
Output
Algorithm : DSA
Example 2:
Java
// Java program to demonstrate // getAlgorithm() method import java.security.*; import java.util.*; import java.security.spec.*; public class GFG1 { public static void main(String[] argv) throws Exception { try { // creating object of keyfactory KeyFactory keyFactory = KeyFactory .getInstance( "DiffieHellman" ); // getting the algorithm of KeyFactory // using getAlgorithm() method String algo = keyFactory.getAlgorithm(); // printing the algorithm System.out.println( "Algorithm : " + algo); } catch (NoSuchAlgorithmException e) { System.out.println( "Exception thrown : " + e); } catch (ProviderException e) { System.out.println( "Exception thrown : " + e); } } } |
Output
Algorithm : DiffieHellman
