Class PKCS7

java.lang.Object
  gnu.crypto.pad.BasePad
      gnu.crypto.pad.PKCS7

All Implemented Interfaces:

IPad

public final class PKCS7

extends BasePad

The implementation of the PKCS7 padding algorithm.

This algorithm is described for 8-byte blocks in [RFC-1423] and extended to block sizes of up to 256 bytes in [PKCS-7].

Method Detail

setup

public void setup()

Description copied from class: BasePad

If any additional checks or resource setup must be done by the subclass, then this is the hook for it. This method will be called before the BasePad.init(int) method returns.

Specified by:

setup in class BasePad

pad

public byte[] pad(byte[] in,
                  int offset,
                  int length)

Description copied from interface: IPad

Returns the byte sequence that should be appended to the designated input.

Specified by:

unpad

public int unpad(byte[] in,
                 int offset,
                 int length)
          throws WrongPaddingException

Description copied from interface: IPad

Returns the number of bytes to discard from a designated input buffer.
