Generates the shared secret, and places it into the buffer sharedSecret, beginning at offset inclusive.

If the sharedSecret buffer is too small to hold the result, a ShortBufferException is thrown. In this case, this call should be repeated with a larger output buffer.

This method resets this KeyAgreementSpi object, so that it can be reused for further key agreements. Unless this key agreement is reinitialized with one of the engineInit methods, the same private information and algorithm parameters will be used for subsequent key agreements.

Parameters:

sharedSecret		the buffer for the shared secret
offset		the offset in sharedSecret where the shared secret will be stored

Returns:  the number of bytes placed into sharedSecret

Exceptions:

IllegalStateException		if this key agreement has not been completed yet
ShortBufferException		if the given output buffer is too small to hold the secret
