Member Function Documentation

◆ CreateEncryptionFilter()

BufferedTransformation * PK_Encryptor::CreateEncryptionFilter	(	RandomNumberGenerator &	rng,
		BufferedTransformation *	attachment = `NULLPTR`,
		const NameValuePairs &	parameters = `g_nullNameValuePairs`
	)		const

virtual

Create a new encryption filter.

Parameters

rng	a RandomNumberGenerator derived class
attachment	an attached transformation
parameters	a set of NameValuePairs to initialize this object

attachment can be NULL. The caller is responsible for deleting the returned pointer. Encoding parameters should be passed in the "EP" channel.

◆ Encrypt()

virtual void PK_Encryptor::Encrypt	(	RandomNumberGenerator &	rng,
		const byte *	plaintext,
		size_t	plaintextLength,
		byte *	ciphertext,
		const NameValuePairs &	parameters = `g_nullNameValuePairs`
	)		const

pure virtual

Encrypt a byte string.

Parameters

rng	a RandomNumberGenerator derived class
plaintext	the plaintext byte buffer
plaintextLength	the size of the plaintext byte buffer
ciphertext	a byte buffer to hold the encrypted string
parameters	a set of NameValuePairs to initialize this object

Precondition: CiphertextLength(plaintextLength) != 0 ensures the plaintext isn't too large; COUNTOF(ciphertext) == CiphertextLength(plaintextLength) ensures the output byte buffer is large enough.
