Class StringFixedIvGenerator

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    FixedIvGenerator, IvGenerator
    public class StringFixedIvGenerator
extends Object
implements FixedIvGenerator

    String based implementation of IvGenerator, that will always return the same initialization vector (IV). This IV is returned as bytes using the specified charset for conversion (UTF-8 by default).

    If the requested IV has a size in bytes smaller than the specified IV, the first n bytes are returned. If it is larger, an exception is thrown.

    This class is thread-safe.

      StringFixedIvGenerator​(String iv)
      Creates a new instance of StringFixedIvGenerator using the default charset.

      Modifier and Type Method Description
      byte[] generateIv​(int lengthBytes)
      Return IV with the specified byte length.
      boolean includePlainIvInEncryptionResults()
      As this IV generator provides a fixed IV, its inclusion unencrypted in encryption results is not necessary, and in fact not desirable (so that it remains hidden).
