Method Detail

encrypt

EncryptedID encrypt(com.sun.identity.saml2.key.EncryptionConfig encryptionConfig,
                    String recipientEntityID)
             throws SAML2Exception

Returns an EncryptedID object.

Parameters:

encryptionConfig - Public key used to encrypt the data encryption (secret) key, it is the public key of the recipient of the XML document to be encrypted.

recipientEntityID - Unique identifier of the recipient, it is used as the index to the cached secret key so that the key can be reused for the same recipient; It can be null in which case the secret key will be generated every time and will not be cached and reused. Note that the generation of a secret key is a relatively expensive operation.

Returns:

EncryptedID object

Throws:

SAML2Exception - if error occurs during the encryption process.
