Attributes

Remarks

Generates a key pair.

If this KeyPairGenerator has not been initialized explicitly, provider-specific defaults will be used for the size and other (algorithm-specific) values of the generated keys.

This will generate a new key pair every time it is called.

This method is functionally equivalent to #generateKeyPair() generateKeyPair.
