Class Mac
- javax.crypto.Mac
- All Implemented Interfaces:
- Cloneable
This class provides the functionality of a 'Message Authentication Code' (MAC) algorithm.A MAC provides a way to check the integrity of information transmitted over or stored in an unreliable medium, based on a secret key. Typically, message authentication codes are used between two parties that share a secret key in order to validate information transmitted between these parties.
A MAC mechanism that is based on cryptographic hash functions is referred to as HMAC. HMAC can be used with any cryptographic hash function, e.g., SHA256 or SHA384, in combination with a secret shared key. HMAC is specified in RFC 2104.
Every implementation of the Java platform is required to support the following standard
Macalgorithms:- HmacMD5
- HmacSHA1
- HmacSHA256
- Since:
- 1.4

Method Detail
getAlgorithm
Returns the algorithm name of thisMacobject.This is the same name that was specified in one of the
getInstancecalls that created thisMacobject.- Returns:
- the algorithm name of this
Macobject.
getInstance
Returns aMacobject that implements the specified MAC algorithm.This method traverses the list of registered security Providers, starting with the most preferred Provider. A new Mac object encapsulating the MacSpi implementation from the first Provider that supports the specified algorithm is returned.
Note that the list of registered providers may be retrieved via the
Security.getProviders()method.- Parameters:
algorithm- the standard name of the requested MAC algorithm. See the Mac section in the Java Cryptography Architecture Standard Algorithm Name Documentation for information about standard algorithm names.- Returns:
- the new
Macobject. - Throws:
NoSuchAlgorithmException- if no Provider supports a MacSpi implementation for the specified algorithm.- See Also:
Provider
getInstance

Note that the list of registered providers may be retrieved via the
Security.getProviders()method.- Parameters:
algorithm- the standard name of the requested MAC algorithm. See the Mac section in the Java Cryptography Architecture Standard Algorithm Name Documentation for information about standard algorithm names.provider- the name of the provider.- Returns:
- the new
Macobject. - Throws:
NoSuchAlgorithmException- if a MacSpi implementation for the specified algorithm is not available from the specified provider.NoSuchProviderException- if the specified provider is not registered in the security provider list.IllegalArgumentException- if theprovideris null or empty.- See Also:
Provider
getInstance
Returns aMacobject that implements the specified MAC algorithm.A new Mac object encapsulating the MacSpi implementation from the specified Provider object is returned. Note that the specified Provider object does not have to be registered in the provider list.
- Parameters:
algorithm- the standard name of the requested MAC algorithm. See the Mac section in the Java Cryptography Architecture Standard Algorithm Name Documentation for information about standard algorithm names.provider- the provider.- Returns:
- the new
Macobject. - Throws:
NoSuchAlgorithmException- if a MacSpi implementation for the specified algorithm is not available from the specified Provider object.IllegalArgumentException- if theprovideris null.- See Also:
Provider
getProvider
- Returns:
- the provider of this
Macobject.
getMacLength
Returns the length of the MAC in bytes.- Returns:
- the MAC length in bytes.
init
- Parameters:
key- the key.- Throws:
InvalidKeyException- if the given key is inappropriate for initializing this MAC.
init
Initializes thisMacobject with the given key and algorithm parameters.- Parameters:
key- the key.params- the algorithm parameters.- Throws:
InvalidKeyException- if the given key is inappropriate for initializing this MAC.InvalidAlgorithmParameterException- if the given algorithm parameters are inappropriate for this MAC.
update
- Parameters:
input- the input byte to be processed.- Throws:
IllegalStateException- if thisMachas not been initialized.
update
Processes the given array of bytes.- Parameters:
input- the array of bytes to be processed.- Throws:
IllegalStateException- if thisMachas not been initialized.
update
Processes the firstlenbytes ininput, starting atoffsetinclusive.- Parameters:
input- the input buffer.offset- the offset ininputwhere the input starts.len- the number of bytes to process.- Throws:
IllegalStateException- if thisMachas not been initialized.
update
Processesinput.remaining()bytes in the ByteBufferinput, starting atinput.position(). Upon return, the buffer's position will be equal to its limit; its limit will not have changed.- Parameters:
input- the ByteBuffer- Throws:
IllegalStateException- if thisMachas not been initialized.- Since:
- 1.5
doFinal
Finishes the MAC operation.A call to this method resets this
Macobject to the state it was in when previously initialized via a call toinit(Key)orinit(Key, AlgorithmParameterSpec). That is, the object is reset and available to generate another MAC from the same key, if desired, via new calls toupdateanddoFinal. (In order to reuse thisMacobject with a different key, it must be reinitialized via a call toinit(Key)orinit(Key, AlgorithmParameterSpec).- Returns:
- the MAC result.
- Throws:
IllegalStateException- if thisMachas not been initialized.
doFinal
Finishes the MAC operation.A call to this method resets this
Macobject to the state it was in when previously initialized via a call toinit(Key)orinit(Key, AlgorithmParameterSpec). That is, the object is reset and available to generate another MAC from the same key, if desired, via new calls toupdateanddoFinal. (In order to reuse thisMacobject with a different key, it must be reinitialized via a call toinit(Key)orinit(Key, AlgorithmParameterSpec).The MAC result is stored in
output, starting atoutOffsetinclusive.- Parameters:
output- the buffer where the MAC result is storedoutOffset- the offset inoutputwhere the MAC is stored- Throws:
ShortBufferException- if the given output buffer is too small to hold the resultIllegalStateException- if thisMachas not been initialized.
doFinal
Processes the given array of bytes and finishes the MAC operation.A call to this method resets this
Macobject to the state it was in when previously initialized via a call toinit(Key)orinit(Key, AlgorithmParameterSpec). That is, the object is reset and available to generate another MAC from the same key, if desired, via new calls toupdateanddoFinal. (In order to reuse thisMacobject with a different key, it must be reinitialized via a call toinit(Key)orinit(Key, AlgorithmParameterSpec).- Parameters:

- Throws:
IllegalStateException- if thisMachas not been initialized.
reset
Resets thisMacobject.A call to this method resets this

The following are the system requirements for installing the JDK and the JRE on macOS:
Java Version Mac Change
Any Intel-based computer running macOS.
Administrator privileges.
You cannot install Java for a single user. Installing the JDK and JRE on macOS is performed on a systemwide basis for all users. Administrator privileges are required to install the JDK and JRE on macOS.
When you install the JDK, it also installs the JRE. However, the system will not replace the current JRE with a lower version.
To determine the current JRE version installed on your system, see Determining the JRE Version Installed on macOS. To install an earlier version of the JRE, you must first uninstall the current version. See Uninstalling the JRE on macOS.
When you install the JRE, you can install only one JRE on your system at a time. The system will not install a JRE that has an earlier version than the current version.
To determine the current JRE version installed on your system, see Determining the JRE Version Installed on macOS. To install an earlier version of the JRE, you must first uninstall the current version. See Uninstalling the JRE on macOS.
Note:
Installing a JRE from Oracle will not update
java -versionsymlinks or addjavato your path. To do this, you must install the JDK.
