> Key: OLTU-165
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OLTU-165
> Project: Apache Oltu

>
> Main aspects I was focused on while making the proposal:
> * simplify the _RSA_/_HMAC_ usage for users not familiar with {{java.security}} APIs,
introducing {{KeyFactory}};
> * reduce drastically the magic role of {{String}} in the _RSA_ algorithms,
> I would avoid end users have to manipulate strings in order to obtain
> different _RSA_ algorithms, but IMHO it has to be clear which algorithm
> they are going to use by simply instantiating classes;
> * have classes well organised, collected in different packages depending by the signature
method.
