IBM MobileFirst Platform Foundation Interim Fix README for 7.1

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• When using any of the encryptCache methods the following error
  will be thrown:  Could not find method
  com.worklight.wlclient.api.SecurityUtils.decrypt, referenced

  * USERS AFFECTED:                                              *
  * Application developers who use EncryptedCache to encrypt     *
  * and/or decrypt keys                                          *
  ****************************************************************
  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:                                         *
  * When application developers that use any method in the       *
  * EncryptedCache module the method will fail because           *
  * SecurityUtils file can not be found. This issue only occurs  *
  * in Android.                                                  *

Problem conclusion

• SecurityUtils was readded into Worklight so that the application
  developer will no longer need to use JSONStore to use
  EncryptedCache
