      • sign

        void sign​(InputStream toSign,
                  OutputStream destination)
        Exhausts toSign, and writes the signature to signatureDestination. The caller is responsible for closing the streams, though the output WILL be flushed.
        Parameters:
        toSign - The source of the data to be signed
        destination - Where the signature will be written to
      • sign

        byte[] sign​(InputStream toSign)
        Exhausts toSign, and returns the raw signature bytes.
        Parameters:
        toSign - The source of the data to be signed
        Returns:
        The raw bytes of the signature
