## gnu.crypto.sig.rsa
Class EME_PKCS1_V1_5

      |
      +--gnu.crypto.sig.rsa.EME_PKCS1_V1_5

public class EME_PKCS1_V1_5
extends java.lang.Object

An implementation of the EME-PKCS1-V1.5 encoding and decoding methods.

EME-PKCS1-V1.5 is parameterised by the entity `k` which is the byte count of an RSA public shared modulus.

Method Summary
`byte[]` | `decode(byte[] EM)` Separate the encoded message `EM` into an octet string `PS` consisting of nonzero octets and a message `M` as:
`byte[]` | `encode(byte[] M)` Generates an octet string `PS` of length `k - mLen - 3` consisting of pseudo-randomly generated nonzero octets.
`byte[]` | `encode(byte[] M, IRandom irnd)` Similar to `encode(byte[])` method, except that the source of randomness to use for obtaining the padding bytes (an instance of `IRandom`) is given as a parameter.
`byte[]` | `encode(byte[] M, java.util.Random rnd)` Similar to the `encode(byte[], IRandom)` method, except that the source of randmoness is an instance of `Random`.
`static EME_PKCS1_V1_5` | `getInstance(int k)`
`static EME_PKCS1_V1_5` | `getInstance(java.security.interfaces.RSAKey key)`

Method Detail

### getInstance

    public static final EME_PKCS1_V1_5 getInstance(int k)

### getInstance

    public static final EME_PKCS1_V1_5 getInstance(java.security.interfaces.RSAKey key)

### encode

    public byte[] encode(byte[] M)

  Generates an octet string `PS` of length `k - mLen - 3` consisting of pseudo-randomly generated nonzero octets. The length of `PS` will be at least eight octets.

  The method then concatenates `PS`, the message `M`, and other padding to form an encoded message `EM` of length `k` octets as:

          EM = 0x00 || 0x02 || PS || 0x00 || M.

  This method uses a default PRNG to obtain the padding bytes.

  Parameters:
    `M` - the message to encode.
  Returns:
    the encoded message `EM`.

### encode

    public byte[] encode(byte[] M,
                         IRandom irnd)

  Similar to `encode(byte[])` method, except that the source of randomness to use for obtaining the padding bytes (an instance of `IRandom`) is given as a parameter.

  Parameters:
    `M` - the message to encode.
    `irnd` - the `IRandom` instance to use as a source of randomness.
  Returns:
    the encoded message `EM`.

### encode

    public byte[] encode(byte[] M,
                         java.util.Random rnd)

  Similar to the `encode(byte[], IRandom)` method, except that the source of randmoness is an instance of `Random`.

  Parameters:
    `M` - the message to encode.
    `rnd` - the `Random` instance to use as a source of randomness.
  Returns:
    the encoded message `EM`.

### decode

    public byte[] decode(byte[] EM)

  Separate the encoded message `EM` into an octet string `PS` consisting of nonzero octets and a message `M` as:

          EM = 0x00 || 0x02 || PS || 0x00 || M.

  If the first octet of `EM` does not have hexadecimal value `0x00`, if the second octet of `EM` does not have hexadecimal value `0x02`, if there is no octet with hexadecimal value `0x00` to separate `PS` from `M`, or if the length of `PS` is less than `8` octets, output "decryption error" and stop.

  Parameters:
    `EM` - the designated encoded message.
  Returns:
    the decoded message `M` framed in the designated `EM` value.
  Throws:
    `java.lang.IllegalArgumentException` - if the length of the designated entity `EM` is different than `k` (the length in bytes of the public shared modulus), or if any of the conditions described above is detected.
