Java implementation issue with Keys abstract class. about waltid-identity

[philpotisk]

Hi @saujam as you see in the picture, I could reproduce the issue. Due to the "inline" Result class the suffix is produced, which can not be inherited from Java.

To solve this issue, I could think of two options:
1.) Change the result type in the Key interface or
2.) Wrap the Result within a subclass for the JVM, as you see in the next screenshot, which at least works in my PoC:

I will discuss these options with the team an come back to you.

Hi @saujam,

if you want to implement a Key in Java instead of Kotlin, you will have to extend from JavaKey instead of Key. There you will not have to handle suspend/coroutines or the kotlin.Result return type.

This is a stub you can utilize:

import id.walt.crypto.keys.JavaKey;
import id.walt.crypto.keys.Key;
import id.walt.crypto.keys.KeyMeta;
import id.walt.crypto.keys.KeyType;
import java.util.Map;
import kotlinx.serialization.json.JsonElement;
import kotlinx.serialization.json.JsonObject;
import org.jetbrains.annotations.NotNull;

public class MyKey extends JavaKey {

    private String _xyz;

    public MyKey(String xyz) {
        this._xyz = xyz;
    }

    @NotNull
    @Override
    public KeyMeta javaGetMeta() {
        return null;
    }

    @NotNull
    @Override
    public byte[] javaGetPublicKeyRepresentation() {
        return new byte[0];
    }

    @NotNull
    @Override
    public Key javaGetPublicKey() {
        return null;
    }

    @NotNull
    @Override
    public JsonElement javaVerifyJws() {
        return null;
    }

    @NotNull
    @Override
    public byte[] javaVerifyRaw() {
        return new byte[0];
    }

    @NotNull
    @Override
    public String javaSignJws(@NotNull byte[] plaintext, @NotNull Map<String, String> headers) {
        return "";
    }

    @NotNull
    @Override
    public Object javaSignRaw(@NotNull byte[] plaintext) {
        return null;
    }

    @NotNull
    @Override
    public String javaExportPEM() {
        return "";
    }

    @NotNull
    @Override
    public JsonObject javaExportJWKObject() {
        return null;
    }

    @NotNull
    @Override
    public String javaExportJWK() {
        return "";
    }

    @NotNull
    @Override
    public String javaGetThumbprint() {
        return "";
    }

    @NotNull
    @Override
    public String javaGetKeyId() {
        return "";
    }

    @Override
    public boolean javaHasPrivateKey() {
        return false;
    }

    @NotNull
    @Override
    public KeyType javaGetKeyType() {
        return null;
    }
}

What is the release version for java key implementation.
