StreamBlockCipher (Bouncy Castle Library 1.52 API Specification)

org.bouncycastle.crypto

## Class StreamBlockCipher

- java.lang.Object
- - org.bouncycastle.crypto.StreamBlockCipher

- All Implemented Interfaces:
    BlockCipher, StreamCipher
  Direct Known Subclasses:
    CFBBlockCipher, GCFBBlockCipher, GOFBBlockCipher, OFBBlockCipher, SICBlockCipher

      public abstract class StreamBlockCipher
      extends java.lang.Object
      implements BlockCipher, StreamCipher

  A parent class for block cipher modes that do not require block aligned data to be processed, but can function in a streaming mode.

  - ### Method Detail

    - #### getUnderlyingCipher

          public BlockCipher getUnderlyingCipher()

      return the underlying block cipher that we are wrapping.
      Returns:
        the underlying block cipher that we are wrapping.

    - #### returnByte

          public final byte returnByte(byte in)

      Description copied from interface: `StreamCipher`
      encrypt/decrypt a single byte returning the result.
      Specified by:
        `returnByte` in interface `StreamCipher`
      Parameters:
        `in` - the byte to be processed.
      Returns:
        the result of processing the input byte.

    - #### processBytes

          public int processBytes(byte[] in,
                         int inOff,
                         int len,
                         byte[] out,
                         int outOff)
                           throws DataLengthException

      Description copied from interface: `StreamCipher`
      process a block of bytes from in putting the result into out.
      Specified by:
        `processBytes` in interface `StreamCipher`
      Parameters:
        `in` - the input byte array.
        `inOff` - the offset into the in array where the data to be processed starts.
        `len` - the number of bytes to be processed.
        `out` - the output buffer the processed bytes go into.
        `outOff` - the offset into the output byte array the processed data starts at.
      Returns:
        the number of bytes produced - should always be len.
      Throws:
        `DataLengthException` - if the output buffer is too small.

    - #### calculateByte

          protected abstract byte calculateByte(byte b)
