Interface StringPBEConfig

All Superinterfaces:

PBEConfig

All Known Implementing Classes:

EnvironmentStringPBEConfig, SimpleStringPBEConfig, WebStringPBEConfig

public interface StringPBEConfig
extends PBEConfig

Common interface for config classes applicable to StandardPBEStringEncryptor objects. This interface extends PBEConfig to add config parameters specific to String encryption.

This interface lets the user create new PBEConfig classes which retrieve values for this parameters from different (and maybe more secure) sources (remote servers, LDAP, other databases...), and do this transparently for the encryptor object.

The config objects passed to an encryptor will only be queried once for each configuration parameter, and this will happen during the initialization of the encryptor object.

For a default implementation, see SimpleStringPBEConfig.
