Package demo Description

The share demo consists of two demo aps, the GUI demo, ShareDemo and the original command line, testap.

The GUI has a dealer interface and then N client interfaces.

The CLI has two arguments, N and K, and performs public value generation, a splitting of a random secret, a share renewal, a share recovery and finally secret recovery. There is no user interaction beyond the arguments. This ap is included only for completeness.

The ShareDemo was built to use encryption in the RSACryptoManager class and requires the cryptix provider, version 3.2 or later, be installed in the java classpath or be specified on the command line.
