Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
default byte[]	decode(byte[] value)	Decrypts the given value.
String	decode(String value)	Decrypts the given value.
default byte[]	encode(byte[] value)	Encrypts the given value.
String	encode(String value)	Encrypts the given value.

Method Details

decode

String decode(String value)

Decrypts the given value.

decode

default byte[] decode(byte[] value)

Decrypts the given value. If not implemented explicitly, this creates a string from the byte array, decodes this with decode(String), and interprets this string as base 64 encoded byte array.

if encode(byte[]) is overridden by an implementation, this has to be implemented accordingly.

Parameters:

value - encrypted value

Returns:

decrypted value

encode

String encode(String value)

Encrypts the given value.

encode

default byte[] encode(byte[] value)

Encrypts the given value. If not implemented explicitly, this encoded the given byte array as a base 64 string, encodes this string with encode(String), and returns the bytes of this resulting string.

if decode(byte[]) is overridden by an implementation, this has to be implemented accordingly.

Parameters:

value - plain byte array to encrypt.

Returns:

encrypted value
