Method Detail

obfuscate

void obfuscate(String key)

Obfuscate the value of the given key.

Parameters:

key -

deobfuscate

void deobfuscate(String key)

Deobfuscate the value of a given key. It can then be accessed in the normal way

Parameters:

key -

deobfuscateToChar

char[] deobfuscateToChar(String key)

Deobfuscate and return a char buffer as used in password APIs.

Parameters:

key -

Returns:

encrypt

void encrypt(String key)

encryption - for this to work you must set a password using the correct constructor. Client must retain the password value, there is no recovery option

Parameters:

key -

decrypt

void decrypt(String key)

decryptToChar

char[] decryptToChar(String key)

instance

static Sec instance(Properties props)

Use this factory method for obfuscation

Parameters:

props -

Returns:

instance

static Sec instance(Properties props,
                    char[] password)

Use this factory method for password-based encryption

Parameters:

props -

password -

Returns:

clearPassword

void clearPassword()

Clear the password from heap memory after use. Client to call if desired
