Package net.i2p.crypto.provider Description

Java Security Provider implementation for I2P cryptographic algorithms.

This package provides a Provider implementation that registers I2P's cryptographic algorithms with the Java Cryptography Architecture (JCA). The provider enables seamless integration of I2P algorithms with standard Java security APIs.

Supported Algorithms:

• EdDSA: Edwards-curve Digital Signature Algorithm (Ed25519)
• Future Support: Additional I2P algorithms may be added in subsequent versions

Usage:

This provider is primarily needed when using runtime registration with:

    Security.addProvider(new I2PProvider());

Once registered, algorithms can be accessed through standard JCA APIs such as:

• Signature for digital signatures
• KeyPairGenerator for key generation
• KeyFactory for key conversion

When to Use:

• Applications requiring JCA compatibility with I2P algorithms
• Integration with existing Java security frameworks
• Standardized algorithm access patterns

Since 0.9.15. Other I2P algorithms may be added later.
