    • setKey

      void setKey(byte[] key)
      Set the encryption key used for encrypting and decrypting. The key needs to be 16 bytes long.
      Parameters:
      key - the key
    • encrypt

      void encrypt(byte[] bytes, int off, int len)
      Encrypt a number of bytes. This is done in-place, that means the bytes are overwritten.
      Parameters:
      bytes - the byte array
      off - the start index
      len - the number of bytes to encrypt
    • decrypt

      void decrypt(byte[] bytes, int off, int len)
      Decrypt a number of bytes. This is done in-place, that means the bytes are overwritten.
      Parameters:
      bytes - the byte array
      off - the start index
      len - the number of bytes to decrypt
    • getKeyLength

      int getKeyLength()
      Get the length of the key in bytes.
      Returns:
      the length of the key
