RSA-OAEP support in classpath-crypto

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

The OAE that I submitted is different from the EOAE for RSA padding.

I have some EOAE code not yet ported to classpath like OAE, 
http://www.syntelos.com/src/com/syntelos/foam/EOAE.java.html

I could do this soonly. 

I'm really interested in a gnu.crypto that can stand alone and be useful 
-- if there's anyone else thinking so, let me know.  I'm thinking the 
base class for the package is java.io.Filter/Stream.


cheers

John
