This class defines the Service Provider Interface (SPI)
for the Cipher
class.
All the abstract methods in this class must be implemented by each
cryptographic service provider who wishes to supply the implementation
of a particular cipher algorithm.
In order to create an instance of Cipher
, which
encapsulates an instance of this CipherSpi
class, an
application calls one of the
getInstance
factory methods of the
Cipher
engine class and specifies the requested
transformation.
Optionally, the application may also specify the name of a provider.
A transformation is a string that describes the operation (or set of operations) to be performed on the given input, to produce some output. A transformation always includes the name of a cryptographic algorithm (e.g., DES), and may be followed by a feedback mode and padding scheme.
A transformation is of the form:
(in the latter case, provider-specific default values for the mode and padding scheme are used). For example, the following is a valid transformation:
Cipher c = Cipher.getInstance("DES/CBC/PKCS5Padding");
A provider may supply a separate class for each combination
of algorithm/mode/padding, or may decide to provide more generic
classes representing sub-transformations corresponding to
algorithm or algorithm/mode or algorithm//padding
(note the double slashes),
in which case the requested mode and/or padding are set automatically by
the getInstance
methods of Cipher
, which invoke
the engineSetMode
and
engineSetPadding
methods of the provider's subclass of CipherSpi
.
A Cipher
property in a provider master class may have one of
the following formats:
// provider's subclass of "CipherSpi" implements "algName" with
// pluggable mode and padding
Cipher.
algName
// provider's subclass of "CipherSpi" implements "algName" in the
// specified "mode", with pluggable padding
Cipher.
algName/mode
// provider's subclass of "CipherSpi" implements "algName" with the
// specified "padding", with pluggable mode
Cipher.
algName//padding
// provider's subclass of "CipherSpi" implements "algName" with the
// specified "mode" and "padding"
Cipher.
algName/mode/padding
For example, a provider may supply a subclass of CipherSpi
that implements DES/ECB/PKCS5Padding, one that implements
DES/CBC/PKCS5Padding, one that implements
DES/CFB/PKCS5Padding, and yet another one that implements
DES/OFB/PKCS5Padding. That provider would have the following
Cipher
properties in its master class:
Cipher.
DES/ECB/PKCS5Padding
Cipher.
DES/CBC/PKCS5Padding
Cipher.
DES/CFB/PKCS5Padding
Cipher.
DES/OFB/PKCS5Padding
Another provider may implement a class for each of the above modes
(i.e., one class for ECB, one for CBC, one for CFB,
and one for OFB), one class for PKCS5Padding,
and a generic DES class that subclasses from CipherSpi
.
That provider would have the following
Cipher
properties in its master class:
Cipher.
DES
The getInstance
factory method of the Cipher
engine class follows these rules in order to instantiate a provider's
implementation of CipherSpi
for a
transformation of the form "algorithm":
CipherSpi
for the specified "algorithm".
If the answer is YES, instantiate this class, for whose mode and padding scheme default values (as supplied by the provider) are used.
If the answer is NO, throw a NoSuchAlgorithmException
exception.
The getInstance
factory method of the Cipher
engine class follows these rules in order to instantiate a provider's
implementation of CipherSpi

If the answer is YES, instantiate it.
If the answer is NO, go to the next step.

int engineDoFinal (byte[] input, int inputOffset, int inputLen, byte[] output, int outputOffset)
Encrypts or decrypts data in a single-part operation, or finishes a multiple-part operation. The data is encrypted or decrypted, depending on how this cipher was initialized.
The first inputLen
bytes in the input
buffer, starting at inputOffset
inclusive, and any input
bytes that may have been buffered during a previous update
operation, are processed, with padding (if requested) being applied.
If an AEAD mode such as GCM/CCM is being used, the authentication
tag is appended in the case of encryption, or verified in the
case of decryption.
The result is stored in the output
buffer, starting at

inclusive.
If the output
buffer is too small to hold the result,
a ShortBufferException
is thrown.
Upon finishing, this method resets this cipher object to the state
it was in when previously initialized via a call to
engineInit
.
That is, the object is reset and available to encrypt or decrypt
(depending on the operation mode that was specified in the call to
engineInit

the initialization vector in a new buffer, or null if the underlying algorithm does not use an IV, or if the IV has not yet been set. |
int engineGetKeySize (Key key)
Returns the key size of the given key object in bits.
This concrete method has been added to this previously-defined
abstract class. It throws an UnsupportedOperationException
if it is not overridden by the provider.
Parameters | |

Key :
the key object. |
Returns | |
---|---|

Returns the length in bytes that an output buffer would
need to be in order to hold the result of the next update
or doFinal
operation, given the input length
inputLen
(in bytes).
This call takes into account any unprocessed (buffered) data from a
previous update
call, padding, and AEAD tagging.

call may be smaller than the length returned by
this method.
Parameters | |
---|---|
inputLen |
int :
the input length (in bytes) |
Returns | |
---|---|
int |
the required output buffer size (in bytes) |
AlgorithmParameters engineGetParameters ()
Returns the parameters used with this cipher.
The returned parameters may be the same that were used to initialize this cipher, or may contain a combination of default and random parameter values used by the underlying cipher implementation if this cipher requires algorithm parameters but was not initialized with any.
Returns | |
---|---|
AlgorithmParameters |
the parameters used with this cipher, or null if this cipher does not use any parameters. |
void engineInit (int opmode, Key key, SecureRandom random)
Initializes this cipher with a key and a source of randomness.
The cipher is initialized for one of the following four operations:
encryption, decryption, key wrapping or key unwrapping, depending on
the value of opmode
.
If this cipher requires any algorithm parameters that cannot be
derived from the given key
, the underlying cipher
implementation is supposed to generate the required parameters itself
(using provider-specific default or random values) if it is being
initialized for encryption or key wrapping, and raise an
InvalidKeyException
if it is being
initialized for decryption or key unwrapping.
The generated parameters can be retrieved using
engineGetParameters
or
engineGetIV
(if the parameter is an IV).
If this cipher requires algorithm parameters that cannot be derived from the input parameters, and there are no reasonable provider-specific default values, initialization will necessarily fail.
If this cipher (including its underlying feedback or padding scheme)
requires any random bytes (e.g., for parameter generation), it will get
them from random
.
Note that when a Cipher object is initialized, it loses all previously-acquired state. In other words, initializing a Cipher is equivalent to creating a new instance of that Cipher and initializing it.

opmode |
int :
the operation mode of this cipher (this is one of
the following:
ENCRYPT_MODE , DECRYPT_MODE ,
WRAP_MODE or UNWRAP_MODE ) |

random |
SecureRandom :
the source of randomness |
Throws | |
---|---|
InvalidKeyException |
if the given key is inappropriate for initializing this cipher, or requires algorithm parameters that cannot be determined from the given key. |
void engineInit (int opmode, Key key, AlgorithmParameterSpec params, SecureRandom random)
Initializes this cipher with a key, a set of algorithm parameters, and a source of randomness.
The cipher is initialized for one of the following four operations:
encryption, decryption, key wrapping or key unwrapping, depending on
the value of opmode
.
If this cipher requires any algorithm parameters and
params
is null, the underlying cipher implementation is
supposed to generate the required parameters itself (using
provider-specific default or random values) if it is being
initialized for encryption or key wrapping, and raise an
InvalidAlgorithmParameterException
if it is being
initialized for decryption or key unwrapping.
The generated parameters can be retrieved using
engineGetParameters
or
engineGetIV
(if the parameter is an IV).
If this cipher requires algorithm parameters that cannot be derived from the input parameters, and there are no reasonable provider-specific default values, initialization will necessarily fail.
If this cipher (including its underlying feedback or padding scheme)
requires any random bytes (e.g., for parameter generation), it will get
them from random
.
