Class ByteArrayHandler


public class ByteArrayHandler
extends java.lang.Object

Simple routine to encrypt and decrypt using a passphrase. This service routine provides the basic PGP services between byte arrays. Note: this code plays no attention to -CONSOLE in the file name the specification of "_CONSOLE" in the filename. It also expects that a single pass phrase will have been used.

Method Summary

static byte[]
decrypt(byte[] encrypted, char[] passPhrase)
decrypt the passed in message stream
static byte[]
encrypt(byte[] clearData, char[] passPhrase, String fileName, int algorithm, boolean armor)
Simple PGP encryptor between byte[].

Method Details

decrypt

public static byte[] decrypt(byte[] encrypted,
                             char[] passPhrase)
            throws IOException,
                   PGPException,
                   NoSuchProviderException
decrypt the passed in message stream
Parameters:
encrypted - The message to be decrypted.
passPhrase - Pass phrase (key)
Returns:
Clear text as a byte array. I18N considerations are not handled by this routine
Throws:
PGPException -

encrypt

public static byte[] encrypt(byte[] clearData,
                             char[] passPhrase,
                             String fileName,
                             int algorithm,
                             boolean armor)
            throws IOException,
                   PGPException,
                   NoSuchProviderException
Simple PGP encryptor between byte[].
Parameters:
clearData - The test to be encrypted
passPhrase - The pass phrase (key). This method assumes that the key is a simple pass phrase, and does not yet support RSA or more sophisiticated keying.
fileName - File name. This is used in the Literal Data Packet (tag 11) which is really inly important if the data is to be related to a file to be recovered later. Because this routine does not know the source of the information, the caller can set something here for file name use that will be carried. If this routine is being used to encrypt SOAP MIME bodies, for example, use the file name from the MIME type, if applicable. Or anything else appropriate.
armor -
Returns:
encrypted data.
Throws:
PGPException -

main

public static void main(String[] args)
            throws Exception
