Interface PBEBigDecimalCleanablePasswordEncryptor

All Superinterfaces:
BigDecimalEncryptor, CleanablePasswordBased, PasswordBased, PBEBigDecimalEncryptor
All Known Implementing Classes:
PooledPBEBigDecimalEncryptor, StandardPBEBigDecimalEncryptor
public interface PBEBigDecimalCleanablePasswordEncryptor extends PBEBigDecimalEncryptor, CleanablePasswordBased

Common interface for all Password Based Encryptors which receive a BigDecimal message and return a BigDecimal result, and provide means to set passwords as cleanable char[] objects (instead of immutable Strings).

Important: The size of the result of encrypting a number, depending on the algorithm, may be much bigger (in bytes) than the size of the encrypted number itself. For example, encrypting a 4-byte integer can result in an encrypted 16-byte number. This can lead the user into problems if the encrypted values are to be stored and not enough room has been provided.

For a default implementation, see StandardPBEBigDecimalEncryptor.
