  • Method Details

    • getFeedback

      String getFeedback()

      Returns:
      the name of the feedback mechanism

    • getIV

      byte[] getIV()
      Gets the initialization vector.
      Returns:
      the initialization vector

    • reset

      void reset()
      Resets the iv to its original value. This is used when doFinal is called in the Cipher class, so that the cipher can be reused (with its original iv).
