Defines the methods required for each signing class that provides a
signature engine. The methods will provide the necessary functionality
for all signing applications. More information on the specific methods
can be found in the implementing classes.
Signed: This element is only accessible by signed clients. If you intend to use this element, please contact RIM to establish the necessary agreements that will allow you to have your COD files signed. Signing is only required for use on the device, development under the JDE can occur without signing the CODs.
Returns the name of the signing algorithm used, eg "DSA", "ECDSA", etc.
Returns:
A String that represents the name of the algorithm.
Since:
JDE 3.6.0
