Class Shacal2Engine

java.lang.Object
org.bouncycastle.crypto.engines.Shacal2Engine
All Implemented Interfaces:
BlockCipher

public class Shacal2Engine extends Object implements BlockCipher
Block cipher Shacal2, designed by Helena Handschuh and David Naccache, based on hash function SHA-256, using SHA-256-Initialization-Values as data and SHA-256-Data as key.

      public Shacal2Engine()
  • Method Details

    • reset

      public void reset()
      Description copied from interface: BlockCipher
      Reset the cipher. After resetting the cipher is in the same state as it was after the last init (if there was one).
      Specified by:
      reset in interface BlockCipher
    • getAlgorithmName

      public String getAlgorithmName()
      Description copied from interface: BlockCipher
      Return the name of the algorithm the cipher implements.
      Specified by:
      getAlgorithmName in interface BlockCipher
      Returns:
      the name of the algorithm the cipher implements.
    • getBlockSize

      public int getBlockSize()
      Description copied from interface: BlockCipher
      Return the block size for this cipher (in bytes).
      Specified by:
      getBlockSize in interface BlockCipher
      Returns:
      the block size for this cipher in bytes.
    • init

      public void init(boolean _forEncryption, CipherParameters params) throws IllegalArgumentException
      Description copied from interface: BlockCipher
      Initialise the cipher.
      Specified by:
      init in interface BlockCipher
      Parameters:
      _forEncryption - if true the cipher is initialised for encryption, if false for decryption.
      params - the key and other data required by the cipher.
      Throws:
      IllegalArgumentException - if the params argument is inappropriate.
    • setKey

      public void setKey(byte[] kb)
    • processBlock

      public int processBlock(byte[] in, int inOffset, byte[] out, int outOffset) throws DataLengthException, IllegalStateException
      Description copied from interface: BlockCipher
      Process one block of input from the array in and write it to the out array.
      Specified by:
      processBlock in interface BlockCipher
      Parameters:
      in - the array containing the input data.
      inOffset - offset into the in array the data starts at.
      out - the array the output data will be copied into.
      outOffset - the offset into the out array the output will start at.
      Returns:
      the number of bytes processed and produced.
      Throws:
      DataLengthException - if there isn't enough data in input , or space in out.
      IllegalStateException - if the cipher isn't initialised.
