Note: This class must be extended in order to override the default implementation.
Note: It is considered good practice to implement the equals and hashCode methods when extending
this class. Otherwise, odd behaviour can occur.

CryptoExtensionAPI: This element is part of the Crypto Extension API. These APIs are intended for parties interested in extending the security provider frameworks, such as integrating a new security medium.
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.
getAlgorithm()
Returns the algorithm supported by this token, ie "HMAC".
int
getMAC(CryptoTokenMACContext context,
byte[] buffer,
int offset,
boolean reset)
Returns the Message Authetication Code (MAC)
associated with the crypto token.
injectKey(byte[] key,
int offset,
int length)
Injects the specified raw key data into the crypto token.
boolean
providesUserAuthentication()
Returns true if the token provides its own user authentication checks, eg a smartcard will prompt for a password before allowing access to the keys.

CryptoTokenException - Thrown if an error occurs with a crypto token
or the crypto token is invalid.

Returns the Message Authetication Code (MAC)
associated with the crypto token.
Parameters:
context - The context of the crypto token.
buffer - The byte array to contain the MAC.
offset - The offset, or start position, of the MAC data within the
array.
Returns:
An integer representing the code.
Throws:
CryptoTokenException - Thrown if an error occurs with the crypto
token or the crypto token is invalid.
