Constructor Detail

### BaseKDFBytesGenerator

    protected BaseKDFBytesGenerator(int counterStart,
                                    Digest digest)

  Construct a KDF Parameters generator.

  Parameters:
    `counterStart` - value of counter.
    `digest` - the digest to be used as the source of derived keys.

Method Detail

### init

    public void init(DerivationParameters param)

  Specified by:
    `init` in interface `DerivationFunction`

### getDigest

    public Digest getDigest()

  return the underlying digest.

  Specified by:
    `getDigest` in interface `DerivationFunction`

### generateBytes

    public int generateBytes(byte[] out,
                             int outOff,
                             int len)
                      throws DataLengthException,
                             java.lang.IllegalArgumentException

  fill len bytes of the output buffer with bytes generated from the derivation function.

  Specified by:
    `generateBytes` in interface `DerivationFunction`
  Throws:
    `java.lang.IllegalArgumentException` - if the size of the request will cause an overflow.
    `DataLengthException` - if the out buffer is too small.
