Constructor Details

BaseMode

protected BaseMode(String name,
                   IBlockCipher underlyingCipher,
                   int cipherBlockSize)
Trivial constructor for use by concrete subclasses.
Parameters:
name - the canonical name prefix of this mode.
underlyingCipher - the implementation of the underlying cipher.
cipherBlockSize - the block size, in bytes, in which to operate the underlying cipher.

Method Details

blockSizes

public Iterator<E> blockSizes()
Returns an Iterator over the supported block sizes. Each element returned by this object is an Integer.

The default behaviour is to return an iterator with just one value, which is that currently configured for the underlying block cipher. Concrete implementations may override this behaviour to signal their ability to support other values.

Specified by:
blockSizes in interface IBlockCipher
Returns:
an Iterator over the supported block sizes.

clone

public abstract Object clone()
Returns a clone of this instance.
Specified by:
clone in interface IBlockCipher
Overrides:
clone in interface Object
Returns:
a clone copy of this instance.

currentBlockSize

public int currentBlockSize()
Returns the currently set block size for this instance.
Specified by:
currentBlockSize in interface IBlockCipher
Returns:
the current block size for this instance.
Throws:
IllegalStateException - if the instance is not initialised.

decryptBlock

public abstract void decryptBlock(byte[] in,
                                  int i,
                                  byte[] out,
                                  int o)
Decrypts exactly one block of ciphertext.
Specified by:
decryptBlock in interface IBlockCipher
Parameters:
in - the plaintext.
out - the ciphertext.
Throws:
IllegalStateException - if the instance is not initialised.

defaultBlockSize

public int defaultBlockSize()
Returns the default value, in bytes, of the mode's block size. This value is part of the construction arguments passed to the Factory methods in ModeFactory. Unless changed by an invocation of any of the init() methods, a Mode instance would operate with the same block size as its underlying block cipher. As mentioned earlier, the block size of the underlying block cipher itself is specified in one of the method(s) available in the factory class.
Specified by:
defaultBlockSize in interface IBlockCipher
Returns:
the default value, in bytes, of the mode's block size.
See Also:
ModeFactory

defaultKeySize

public int defaultKeySize()
Returns the default value, in bytes, of the underlying block cipher key size.
Specified by:
defaultKeySize in interface IBlockCipher
Returns:
the default value, in bytes, of the underlying cipher's key size.

encryptBlock

public abstract void encryptBlock(byte[] in,
                                  int i,
                                  byte[] out,
                                  int o)
Encrypts exactly one block of plaintext.
Specified by:
encryptBlock in interface IBlockCipher
Parameters:
in - the plaintext.
out - the ciphertext.
Throws:
IllegalStateException - if the instance is not initialised.

init

public void init(Map<K,V> attributes)
            throws InvalidKeyException,
                   IllegalStateException
Initialises the algorithm with designated attributes. Permissible names and values are described in the class documentation above.
Specified by:
init in interface IBlockCipher
Parameters:
attributes - a set of name-value pairs that describes the desired future behaviour of this instance.
Throws:
InvalidKeyException - if the key data is invalid.
IllegalStateException - if the instance is already initialised.

keySizes

public Iterator<E> keySizes()
Returns an Iterator over the supported underlying block cipher key sizes. Each element returned by this object is an instance of Integer.
Specified by:
keySizes in interface IBlockCipher
Returns:
an Iterator over the supported key sizes.

name

public String name()
Returns the canonical name of this instance.
Specified by:
name in interface IBlockCipher
Returns:
the canonical name of this instance.

reset

public void reset()
Resets the algorithm instance for re-initialisation and use with other characteristics. This method always succeeds.
Specified by:

selfTest

public boolean selfTest()
A correctness test that consists of basic symmetric encryption / decryption test(s) for all supported block and key sizes, as well as one (1) variable key Known Answer Test (KAT).
Specified by:
selfTest in interface IBlockCipher
Returns:
true if the implementation passes simple correctness tests. Returns false otherwise.

setup

public abstract void setup()
The initialisation phase of the concrete mode implementation.

teardown

public abstract void teardown()

            throws IllegalStateException
Specified by:
