         t           Integer      -- error correcting capability
         matrixG     OctetString  -- generator matrix as octet string
       }
 

Specified by:

getEncoded in interface java.security.Key

Returns:

the keyData to encode in the SubjectPublicKeyInfo structure

getFormat

public java.lang.String getFormat()

Specified by:

getFormat in interface java.security.Key
