The number of seed bytes can be obtained using the method generateSeed() in class java.security.SecureRandom. This method requires a single parameter i.e. the number of seed bytes and it returns the seed bytes that are generated.A program that demonstrates this is given as follows −Example Live Demoimport java.security.*; import java.util.*; public class Demo {    public static void main(String[] argv) {       try {          SecureRandom sRandom = SecureRandom.getInstance("SHA1PRNG");          byte[] arrB = sRandom.generateSeed(5);          System.out.println("The seed bytes generated are: " + Arrays.toString(arrB));       } catch (NoSuchAlgorithmException e) ...

A SecureRandom object can be obtained using the getInstance() method in class java.security.SecureRandom. This SecureRandom object is useful in implementing the Random Number Generator (RNG) algorithm that is specified.The getInstance() method requires a single parameter i.e. the Random Number Generator (RNG) algorithm and it returns the SecureRandom object.A program that demonstrates this is given as follows −Example Live Demoimport java.security.*; import java.util.*; public class Demo {    public static void main(String[] argv) {       try {          SecureRandom sRandom = SecureRandom.getInstance("SHA1PRNG");          String s = "Apple";          byte[] arrB = ...

In this article, we will learn about the Signature.getInstance() method, how it works, and examples that demonstrate its usage. A signature object that can implement the required signature algorithm can be obtained using the method getInstance(). The Signature.getInstance() method in Java is a crucial component of the Java Cryptography Architecture (JCA). It is part of the java.security package and is used to create and manage digital signatures. Java Cryptography Architecture (JCA)  The Java Cryptography Architecture (JCA) is a collection of APIs designed to implement modern cryptographic concepts like digital signatures, message digests, and certificates. It provides developers with tools to ... Read More

The string representation for the signature object can be obtained using the method getString() in the class java.security.Signature. This includes information such as the object state, algorithm name etc. The method getString() requires no parameters and it returns the provider for the signature object.A program that demonstrates this is given as follows −Example Live Demoimport java.security.*; import java.util.*; public class Demo { public static void main(String[] argv) { try { Signature signature = Signature.getInstance("SHA256withRSA"); ...

The provider for the signature object can be obtained using the method getProvider() in the class java.security.Signature. This method requires no parameters and it returns the provider for the signature object.A program that demonstrates this is given as follows −Example Live Demoimport java.security.*; import java.util.*; public class Demo {    public static void main(String[] argv) {       try {          Signature signature = Signature.getInstance("SHA256withRSA");          Provider provider = signature.getProvider();          System.out.println("The Provider is: " + provider);       } catch (NoSuchAlgorithmException e) { ...

The name of the algorithm for the signature object can be obtained using the method getAlgorithm() in the class java.security.Signature. This method requires no parameters and it returns the name of the algorithm for the signature object.A program that demonstrates this is given as follows −Example Live Demoimport java.security.*; import java.util.*; public class Demo {    public static void main(String[] argv) {       try {          Signature signature = Signature.getInstance("SHA256withRSA");          String algorithm = signature.getAlgorithm();          System.out.println("The Algorithm is: " + algorithm);       } catch (NoSuchAlgorithmException e) { ...

A new CharBuffer can be allocated using the method allocate() in the class java.nio.CharBuffer. This method requires a single parameter i.e. the capacity of the buffer. It returns the new CharBuffer that is allocated. If the capacity provided is negative, then the IllegalArgumentException is thrown.A program that demonstrates this is given as follows −Example Live Demoimport java.nio.*; import java.util.*; public class Demo {    public static void main(String[] args) {       int n = 5;       try {          CharBuffer buffer = CharBuffer.allocate(n);          buffer.put('A');          buffer.put('P');   ...

A duplicate buffer of a buffer can be created using the method duplicate() in the class java.nio.CharBuffer. This duplicate buffer is identical to the original buffer. The method duplicate() returns the duplicate buffer that was created.A program that demonstrates this is given as follows −Example Live Demoimport java.nio.*; import java.util.*; public class Demo {    public static void main(String[] args) {       int n = 5;       try {          CharBuffer buffer1 = CharBuffer.allocate(5);          buffer1.put('A');          buffer1.put('P');          buffer1.put('P');          buffer1.put('L'); ...

The buffer can be compacted using the compact() method in the class java.nio.CharBuffer. This method does not require a parameter and it returns the new compacted CharBuffer with the same content as the original buffer. If the buffer is read-only, then the ReadOnlyBufferException is thrown.A program that demonstrates this is given as follows −Example Live Demoimport java.nio.*; import java.util.*; public class Demo {    public static void main(String[] args) {       int n = 5;       try {          CharBuffer buffer = CharBuffer.allocate(n);          buffer.put('A');          buffer.put('B');   ...
