Packages that use PrivateKey
java.security	Provides the classes and interfaces for the security framework.
java.security.interfaces	Provides interfaces for generating RSA (Rivest, Shamir and Adleman AsymmetricCipher algorithm) keys as defined in the RSA Laboratory Technical Note PKCS#1, and DSA (Digital Signature Algorithm) keys as defined in NIST's FIPS-186.
javax.crypto.interfaces	Provides interfaces for Diffie-Hellman keys as defined in RSA Laboratories' PKCS #3.
javax.net.ssl	Provides classes for the secure socket package.
javax.security.auth.x500	This package contains the classes that should be used to store X500 Principal and X500 Private Crendentials in a Subject.

Uses of PrivateKey in java.security

Methods in java.security that return PrivateKey
protected abstract PrivateKey	KeyFactorySpi.engineGeneratePrivate(KeySpec keySpec) Generates a private key object from the provided key specification (key material).
PrivateKey	KeyFactory.generatePrivate(KeySpec keySpec) Generates a private key object from the provided key specification (key material).
PrivateKey	KeyPair.getPrivate() Returns a reference to the private key component of this key pair.
PrivateKey	Signer.getPrivateKey() Deprecated. Returns this signer's private key.
PrivateKey	KeyStore.PrivateKeyEntry.getPrivateKey() Gets the PrivateKey from this entry.

Methods in java.security with parameters of type PrivateKey
protected abstract void	SignatureSpi.engineInitSign(PrivateKey privateKey) Initializes this signature object with the specified private key for signing operations.
protected void	SignatureSpi.engineInitSign(PrivateKey privateKey, SecureRandom random) Initializes this signature object with the specified private key and source of randomness for signing operations.
void	Signature.initSign(PrivateKey privateKey) Initialize this object for signing.
void	Signature.initSign(PrivateKey privateKey, SecureRandom random) Initialize this object for signing.

Constructors in java.security with parameters of type PrivateKey
KeyPair(PublicKey publicKey, PrivateKey privateKey) Constructs a key pair from the given public key and private key.
KeyStore.PrivateKeyEntry(PrivateKey privateKey, Certificate[] chain) Constructs a PrivateKeyEntry with a PrivateKey and corresponding certificate chain.
