DESencrypt

Warning:

This function is obsolete, use cryptString().

Digitizes a string with the DES algorithm. 


            DESencrypt (value [, key ] [, cipher
      mode ] [, initialization
      vector ] [, padding
      ])

Parameters

value

The string to digitize

key

The key represented in hexadecimal. The key must be 64 bits long, or 16 hexadecimal characters. By default, the identifier of the database is used.

cipher mode

The blocks encoding method. One character string. i.e. "CBC", "ECB" or "EDE". By default "CBC".

initialization vector

The initialization vector in the form of a hexadecimal string. Exactly 8 octets, i.e. 16 characters. An empty string by default.

padding

The padding type. A character string, i.e. "PKCS5PADDING" or "PKCS7PADDING". By default, an empty string, which means that a '\0' is added to the end of the string to be encrypted.

Return value

The digitized string represented in base 64.

Remarks

  • A DES key has 56 useful bits and 8 bits used for parity; These bits are ignored.
  • The value effectively encrypted by the DES algorithm will be the 8-bit Windows-1252 representation of the string, finishing with an ASCII 0 character and padded to multiple of 64 bits with binary zeros.
  • The digitized value has multiple-length 64 bit value.
