Constructor Detail

ArmoredOutputStream

public ArmoredOutputStream(java.io.OutputStream out)

Constructs an armored output stream with default headers.

Parameters:

out - the OutputStream to wrap.

ArmoredOutputStream

public ArmoredOutputStream(java.io.OutputStream out,
                           java.util.Hashtable headers)

Constructs an armored output stream with default and custom headers.

Parameters:

out - the OutputStream to wrap.

headers - additional headers that add to or override the default headers.

Method Detail

setHeader

public void setHeader(java.lang.String name,
                      java.lang.String value)

Set an additional header entry.

Parameters:

name - the name of the header entry.

value - the value of the header entry.

resetHeaders

public void resetHeaders()

Reset the headers to only contain a Version string.

beginClearText

public void beginClearText(int hashAlgorithm)
                    throws java.io.IOException

Start a clear text signed message.

Parameters:

hashAlgorithm -

Throws:

java.io.IOException

endClearText

public void endClearText()

write

public void write(int b)
           throws java.io.IOException

Specified by:

write in class java.io.OutputStream

Throws:

java.io.IOException

flush

public void flush()
           throws java.io.IOException

Specified by:

flush in interface java.io.Flushable

Overrides:

flush in class java.io.OutputStream

Throws:

java.io.IOException

close

public void close()
           throws java.io.IOException

Note: close does nor close the underlying stream. So it is possible to write multiple objects using armoring to a single stream.

Specified by:

close in interface java.io.Closeable

Overrides:

close in class java.io.OutputStream

Throws:

java.io.IOException
