Constructor Detail

OFBBlockCipherback to summary
public OFBBlockCipher(BlockCipher cipher, int bitBlockSize)

Basic constructor.

Parameters
cipher:BlockCipher

the block cipher to be used as the basis of the feedback mode.

bitBlockSize:int

the block size in bits (note: a multiple of 8)

Method Detail

calculateByteback to summary
protected byte calculateByte(byte in) throws DataLengthException, IllegalStateException

Implements abstract org.bouncycastle.crypto.StreamBlockCipher.calculateByte.

getAlgorithmNameback to summary
public String getAlgorithmName()

Implements org.bouncycastle.crypto.StreamCipher.getAlgorithmName, org.bouncycastle.crypto.BlockCipher.getAlgorithmName.

return the algorithm name and mode.

Returns:String

the name of the underlying algorithm followed by "/OFB" and the block size in bits

getBlockSizeback to summary
public int getBlockSize()

Implements org.bouncycastle.crypto.BlockCipher.getBlockSize.

return the block size we are operating at (in bytes).

Returns:int

the block size we are operating at (in bytes).

initback to summary
public void init(boolean encrypting, CipherParameters params) throws IllegalArgumentException

Implements org.bouncycastle.crypto.StreamCipher.init, org.bouncycastle.crypto.BlockCipher.init.

Initialise the cipher and, possibly, the initialisation vector (IV). If an IV isn't passed as part of the parameter, the IV will be all zeros. An IV which is too short is handled in FIPS compliant fashion.

Parameters
encrypting:boolean

if true the cipher is initialised for encryption, if false for decryption.

params:CipherParameters

the key and other data required by the cipher.

Exceptions
IllegalArgumentException:
if the params argument is inappropriate.
processBlockback to summary
public int processBlock(byte[] in, int inOff, byte[] out, int outOff) throws DataLengthException, IllegalStateException

Implements org.bouncycastle.crypto.BlockCipher.processBlock.

Process one block of input from the array in and write it to the out array.

Parameters
in:byte[]

the array containing the input data.

inOff:int

offset into the in array the data starts at.

out:byte[]

the array the output data will be copied into.

outOff:int

the offset into the out array the output will start at.

Returns:int

the number of bytes processed and produced.

Exceptions
DataLengthException:
if there isn't enough data in in, or space in out.
IllegalStateException:
if the cipher isn't initialised.
resetback to summary
public void reset()

Implements org.bouncycastle.crypto.StreamCipher.reset, org.bouncycastle.crypto.BlockCipher.reset.

reset the feedback vector back to the IV and reset the underlying cipher.
