Interface SecretKeyRef

All Known Implementing Classes:
SecretKeyFile

public abstract interface SecretKeyRef
extends KeyRef

Interface for classes that reference a secret key stored on a smart card. Different cards use different ways of identifying a key on the card, for example file names, indexes, numbers, logical names. Wherever a card service interface needs to identify a secret key on card, the interface should use type SecretKeyRef. Concrete card service implementations should then support a subset of the subclasses of SecretKeyRef, for example SecretKeyFile for cards that store their keys in ISO files.
