Interface PrivateKeyRef
- All Superinterfaces:
- java.security.Key, KeyRef, java.security.PrivateKey, java.io.Serializable
- All Known Implementing Classes:
- PrivateKeyFile
public interface PrivateKeyRef
- extends KeyRef, java.security.PrivateKey
Interface for classes that reference a private 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 key on card
the interface should use type PrivateKeyRef.
Concrete card service implementations should then support a subset
of the subclasses of PrivateKeyRef, for example PrivateKeyFile
for cards that store their keys in ISO files.
