All Implemented Interfaces:

SaltGenerator

public class FixedByteArraySaltGenerator
extends java.lang.Object
implements SaltGenerator

This implementation of SaltGenerator always returns a fixed salt set by the user.

Constructor Summary

FixedByteArraySaltGenerator()
Creates a new instance of FixedByteArraySaltGenerator

Method Summary

byte[]	generateSalt(int lengthBytes) Return salt with the specified byte length.
boolean	includePlainSaltInEncryptionResults() As this salt generator provides a fixed salt, its inclusion unencrypted in encryption results is not necessary, and in fact not desirable (so that it remains hidden).
void	setSalt(byte[] salt) Sets the salt to be returned.
