Generate keys starting from a string password. This method transforms a normal string into a strong password by applying hash trasformation on that. The strong password is then used to create the key vector and the block vector to run the algorithm.

Namespace: LLCryptoLib.Crypto

Examples

CopyC#
// 1. Set algorithm
IStreamAlgorithm cryptoAlgo = StreamAlgorithmFactory.Create(SupportedStreamAlgorithms.BLOWFISH);

// 2. Encrypt 
StreamCrypter crypter = new StreamCrypter(cryptoAlgo);
crypter.GenerateKeys("littlelitesoftware");
crypter.EncryptDecrypt(rndFile.FullName, encryptedFile, true, null);
Console.WriteLine("File encrypted into " + encryptedFile);

// 3. Decrypt
StreamCrypter decrypter = new StreamCrypter(cryptoAlgo);
crypter.GenerateKeys("littlelitesoftware");
crypter.EncryptDecrypt(encryptedFile, decryptedFile, false, null);
Console.WriteLine("File decrypted into " + decryptedFile);
