GetInstance(String)
Returns a KeyPairGenerator object that generates public/private key pairs for the specified algorithm.
[Android.Runtime.Register("getInstance", "(Ljava/lang/String;)Ljava/security/KeyPairGenerator;", "")]
public static Java.Security.KeyPairGenerator? GetInstance (string? algorithm);
[<Android.Runtime.Register("getInstance", "(Ljava/lang/String;)Ljava/security/KeyPairGenerator;", "")>]
static member GetInstance : string -> Java.Security.KeyPairGenerator
Parameters
- algorithm
- String
the standard string name of the algorithm. See the KeyPairGenerator section in the Java Security Standard Algorithm Names Specification for information about standard algorithm names.
Returns
the new KeyPairGenerator
object
- Attributes
Exceptions
if the specified algorithm is not available
if algorithm
is null
Remarks
Returns a KeyPairGenerator object that generates public/private key pairs for the specified algorithm.
This method traverses the list of registered security Providers, starting with the most preferred Provider. A new KeyPairGenerator object encapsulating the KeyPairGeneratorSpi implementation from the first Provider that supports the specified algorithm is returned.
Note that the list of registered providers may be retrieved via the Security#getProviders() Security.getProviders()
method.
