      public class Cipher
      extends Object

  This class provides the functionality of a cryptographic cipher for encryption and decryption. It forms the core of the Java Cryptographic Extension (JCE) framework.

  In order to create a Cipher object, the application calls the Cipher's `getInstance` method, and passes the name of the requested transformation to it. Optionally, the name of a provider may be specified.

  A transformation is a string that describes the operation (or set of operations) to be performed on the given input, to produce some output. A transformation always includes the name of a cryptographic algorithm (e.g., DES), and may be followed by a feedback mode and padding scheme.

  A transformation is of the form:

  - "algorithm/mode/padding" or

  - "algorithm"

  (in the latter case, provider-specific default values for the mode and padding scheme are used). For example, the following is a valid transformation:

           Cipher c = Cipher.getInstance("DES/CBC/PKCS5Padding");

  Using modes such as `CFB` and `OFB`, block ciphers can encrypt data in units smaller than the cipher's actual block size. When requesting such a mode, you may optionally specify the number of bits to be processed at a time by appending this number to the mode name as shown in the "`DES/CFB8/NoPadding`" and "`DES/OFB32/PKCS5Padding`" transformations. If no such number is specified, a provider-specific default is used. (For example, the SunJCE provider uses a default of 64 bits for DES.) Thus, block ciphers can be turned into byte-oriented stream ciphers by using an 8 bit mode such as CFB8 or OFB8.

  Modes such as Authenticated Encryption with Associated Data (AEAD) provide authenticity assurances for both confidential data and Additional Associated Data (AAD) that is not encrypted. (Please see RFC 5116 for more information on AEAD and AEAD algorithms such as GCM/CCM.) Both confidential and AAD data can be used when calculating the authentication tag (similar to a `Mac`). This tag is appended to the ciphertext during encryption, and is verified on decryption.

  AEAD modes such as GCM/CCM perform all AAD authenticity calculations before starting the ciphertext authenticity calculations. To avoid implementations having to internally buffer ciphertext, all AAD data must be supplied to GCM/CCM implementations (via the `updateAAD` methods) before the ciphertext is processed (via the `update` and `doFinal` methods).

           GCMParameterSpec s = new GCMParameterSpec(...);
           cipher.init(..., s);

           // If the GCMParameterSpec is needed again
           cipher.getParameters().getParameterSpec(GCMParameterSpec.class));

           cipher.updateAAD(...);  // AAD
           cipher.update(...);     // Multi-part update
           cipher.doFinal(...);    // conclusion of operation

  Every implementation of the Java platform is required to support the following standard `Cipher` transformations with the keysizes in parentheses:
  - `AES/CBC/NoPadding` (128)
  - `AES/CBC/PKCS5Padding` (128)
  - `AES/ECB/NoPadding` (128)
  - `AES/ECB/PKCS5Padding` (128)
  - `DES/CBC/NoPadding` (56)
  - `DES/CBC/PKCS5Padding` (56)
  - `DES/ECB/NoPadding` (56)
  - `DES/ECB/PKCS5Padding` (56)
  - `DESede/CBC/NoPadding` (168)
  - `DESede/CBC/PKCS5Padding` (168)
  - `DESede/ECB/NoPadding` (168)
  - `DESede/ECB/PKCS5Padding` (168)
  - `RSA/ECB/PKCS1Padding` (1024, 2048)
  - `RSA/ECB/OAEPWithSHA-1AndMGF1Padding` (1024, 2048)
  - `RSA/ECB/OAEPWithSHA-256AndMGF1Padding` (1024, 2048)
  These transformations are described in the Cipher section of the Java Cryptography Architecture Standard Algorithm Name Documentation. Consult the release documentation for your implementation to see if any other transformations are supported.

    - #### getBlockSize

          public final int getBlockSize()

      Returns the length in bytes that an output buffer would need to be in order to hold the result of the next `update` or `doFinal` operation, given the input length `inputLen` (in bytes).

      Returns:
        the parameters used with this cipher, or null if this cipher does not use any parameters.

    - #### init

          public final void init(int opmode,
                  Key key)
                          throws InvalidKeyException

      Initializes this cipher with a key.

      The cipher is initialized for one of the following four operations: encryption, decryption, key wrapping or key unwrapping, depending on the value of `opmode`.

      If this cipher requires any algorithm parameters that cannot be derived from the given `key`, the underlying cipher implementation is supposed to generate the required parameters itself (using provider-specific default or random values) if it is being initialized for encryption or key wrapping, and raise an `InvalidKeyException` if it is being initialized for decryption or key unwrapping. The generated parameters can be retrieved using `getParameters` or `getIV` (if the parameter is an IV).

      If this cipher requires algorithm parameters that cannot be derived from the input parameters, and there are no reasonable provider-specific default values, initialization will necessarily fail.

      If this cipher (including its underlying feedback or padding scheme) requires any random bytes (e.g., for parameter generation), it will get them using the ``SecureRandom`` implementation of the highest-priority installed provider as the source of randomness. (If none of the installed providers supply an implementation of SecureRandom, a system-provided source of randomness will be used.)

      Note that when a Cipher object is initialized, it loses all previously-acquired state. In other words, initializing a Cipher is equivalent to creating a new instance of that Cipher and initializing it.

      Parameters:
        `opmode` - the operation mode of this cipher (this is one of the following: `ENCRYPT_MODE`, `DECRYPT_MODE`, `WRAP_MODE` or `UNWRAP_MODE`)
        `key` - the key
      Throws:
        `InvalidKeyException` - if the given key is inappropriate for initializing this cipher, or requires algorithm parameters that cannot be determined from the given key, or if the given key has a keysize that exceeds the maximum allowable keysize (as determined from the configured jurisdiction policy files).

      If this cipher requires any algorithm parameters that cannot be derived from the given `key`, the underlying cipher implementation is supposed to generate the required parameters itself (using provider-specific default or random values) if it is being initialized for encryption or key wrapping, and raise an `InvalidKeyException` if it is being initialized for decryption or key unwrapping. The generated parameters can be retrieved using `getParameters` or `getIV` (if the parameter is an IV).

      If this cipher requires algorithm parameters that cannot be derived from the input parameters, and there are no reasonable provider-specific default values, initialization will necessarily fail.

      If this cipher (including its underlying feedback or padding scheme) requires any random bytes (e.g., for parameter generation), it will get them from `random`.

      Note that when a Cipher object is initialized, it loses all previously-acquired state. In other words, initializing a Cipher is equivalent to creating a new instance of that Cipher and initializing it.

        `key` - the encryption key
        `random` - the source of randomness
      Throws:

      Initializes this cipher with a key and a set of algorithm parameters.

      The cipher is initialized for one of the following four operations: encryption, decryption, key wrapping or key unwrapping, depending on the value of `opmode`.

      If this cipher requires any algorithm parameters and `params` is null, the underlying cipher implementation is supposed to generate the required parameters itself (using provider-specific default or random values) if it is being initialized for encryption or key wrapping, and raise an `InvalidAlgorithmParameterException` if it is being initialized for decryption or key unwrapping. The generated parameters can be retrieved using `getParameters` or `getIV` (if the parameter is an IV).

      If this cipher requires algorithm parameters that cannot be derived from the input parameters, and there are no reasonable provider-specific default values, initialization will necessarily fail.

        `opmode` - the operation mode of this cipher (this is one of the following: `ENCRYPT_MODE`, `DECRYPT_MODE`, `WRAP_MODE` or `UNWRAP_MODE`)
        `key` - the encryption key
        `params` - the algorithm parameters
        `random` - the source of randomness
      Throws:
        `InvalidKeyException` - if the given key is inappropriate for initializing this cipher, or its keysize exceeds the maximum allowable keysize (as determined from the configured jurisdiction policy files).
        `InvalidAlgorithmParameterException` - if the given algorithm parameters are inappropriate for this cipher, or this cipher requires algorithm parameters and `params` is null, or the given algorithm parameters imply a cryptographic strength that would exceed the legal limits (as determined from the configured jurisdiction policy files).

    - #### init

          public final void init(int opmode,
                  Key key,
                  AlgorithmParameters params)
                          throws InvalidKeyException,
                                 InvalidAlgorithmParameterException

      Initializes this cipher with a key and a set of algorithm parameters.

      The cipher is initialized for one of the following four operations: encryption, decryption, key wrapping or key unwrapping, depending on the value of `opmode`.

      If this cipher requires any algorithm parameters and `params` is null, the underlying cipher implementation is supposed to generate the required parameters itself (using provider-specific default or random values) if it is being initialized for encryption or key wrapping, and raise an `InvalidAlgorithmParameterException` if it is being initialized for decryption or key unwrapping. The generated parameters can be retrieved using `getParameters` or `getIV` (if the parameter is an IV).

      If this cipher requires algorithm parameters that cannot be derived from the input parameters, and there are no reasonable provider-specific default values, initialization will necessarily fail.

      If this cipher (including its underlying feedback or padding scheme) requires any random bytes (e.g., for parameter generation), it will get them using the ``SecureRandom`` implementation of the highest-priority installed provider as the source of randomness. (If none of the installed providers supply an implementation of SecureRandom, a system-provided source of randomness will be used.)

      Note that when a Cipher object is initialized, it loses all previously-acquired state. In other words, initializing a Cipher is equivalent to creating a new instance of that Cipher and initializing it.

      Parameters:
        `opmode` - the operation mode of this cipher (this is one of the following: `ENCRYPT_MODE`, `DECRYPT_MODE`, `WRAP_MODE` or `UNWRAP_MODE`)
        `key` - the encryption key
        `params` - the algorithm parameters
      Throws:
        `InvalidKeyException` - if the given key is inappropriate for initializing this cipher, or its keysize exceeds the maximum allowable keysize (as determined from the configured jurisdiction policy files).
        `InvalidAlgorithmParameterException` - if the given algorithm parameters are inappropriate for this cipher, or this cipher requires algorithm parameters and `params` is null, or the given algorithm parameters imply a cryptographic strength that would exceed the legal limits (as determined from the configured jurisdiction policy files).

                                 InvalidAlgorithmParameterException

      Initializes this cipher with a key, a set of algorithm parameters, and a source of randomness.

      The cipher is initialized for one of the following four operations: encryption, decryption, key wrapping or key unwrapping, depending on the value of `opmode`.

      If this cipher requires any algorithm parameters and `params` is null, the underlying cipher implementation is supposed to generate the required parameters itself (using provider-specific default or random values) if it is being initialized for encryption or key wrapping, and raise an `InvalidAlgorithmParameterException` if it is being initialized for decryption or key unwrapping.

                          throws InvalidKeyException

      Initializes this cipher with the public key from the given certificate.

      The cipher is initialized for one of the following four operations: encryption, decryption, key wrapping or key unwrapping, depending on the value of `opmode`.

      If the certificate is of type X.509 and has a key usage extension field marked as critical, and the value of the key usage extension field implies that the public key in the certificate and its corresponding private key are not supposed to be used for the operation represented by the value of `opmode`, an `InvalidKeyException` is thrown.

      If this cipher requires any algorithm parameters that cannot be derived from the public key in the given certificate, the underlying cipher implementation is supposed to generate the required parameters itself (using provider-specific default or random values) if it is being initialized for encryption or key wrapping, and raise an `InvalidKeyException` if it is being initialized for decryption or key unwrapping.

      Initializes this cipher with the public key from the given certificate and a source of randomness.

      The cipher is initialized for one of the following four operations: encryption, decryption, key wrapping or key unwrapping, depending on the value of `opmode`.

      Continues a multiple-part encryption or decryption operation (depending on how this cipher was initialized), processing another data part.

      The bytes in the `input` buffer are processed, and the result is stored in a new buffer.

      If `input` has a length of zero, this method returns `null`.

      Parameters:
        `input` - the input buffer
      Returns:
        the new buffer with the result, or null if the underlying cipher is a block cipher and the input data is too short to result in a new block.
      Throws:
        `IllegalStateException` - if this cipher is in a wrong state (e.g., has not been initialized)

    - #### update

                      int inputOffset,
                      int inputLen)

      Continues a multiple-part encryption or decryption operation (depending on how this cipher was initialized), processing another data part.

      The first `inputLen` bytes in the `input` buffer, starting at `inputOffset` inclusive, are processed, and the result is stored in a new buffer.

      If `inputLen` is zero, this method returns `null`.

      Parameters:
        `input` - the input buffer
        `inputOffset` - the offset in `input` where the input starts
        `inputLen` - the input length

                           throws ShortBufferException

      Continues a multiple-part encryption or decryption operation (depending on how this cipher was initialized), processing another data part.

      The first `inputLen` bytes in the `input` buffer, starting at `inputOffset` inclusive, are processed, and the result is stored in the `output` buffer.

      If the `output` buffer is too small to hold the result, a `ShortBufferException` is thrown. In this case, repeat this call with a larger output buffer. Use `getOutputSize` to determine how big the output buffer should be.

      If `inputLen` is zero, this method returns a length of zero.

      Note: this method should be copy-safe, which means the `input` and `output` buffers can reference the same byte array and no unprocessed input data is overwritten when the result is copied into the output buffer.

      Parameters:
        `input` - the input buffer
        `inputOffset` - the offset in `input` where the input starts
        `inputLen` - the input length

                           throws ShortBufferException

      Continues a multiple-part encryption or decryption operation (depending on how this cipher was initialized), processing another data part.

      The first `inputLen` bytes in the `input` buffer, starting at `inputOffset` inclusive, are processed, and the result is stored in the `output` buffer, starting at `outputOffset` inclusive.

      If the `output` buffer is too small to hold the result, a `ShortBufferException` is thrown. In this case, repeat this call with a larger output buffer. Use `getOutputSize` to determine how big the output buffer should be.

      If `inputLen` is zero, this method returns a length of zero.

      Note: this method should be copy-safe, which means the `input` and `output` buffers can reference the same byte array and no unprocessed input data is overwritten when the result is copied into the output buffer.

      Parameters:
        `input` - the input buffer

                           throws ShortBufferException

      Continues a multiple-part encryption or decryption operation (depending on how this cipher was initialized), processing another data part.

      All `input.remaining()` bytes starting at `input.position()` are processed. The result is stored in the output buffer. Upon return, the input buffer's position will be equal to its limit; its limit will not have changed. The output buffer's position will have advanced by n, where n is the value returned by this method; the output buffer's limit will not have changed.

      If `output.remaining()` bytes are insufficient to hold the result, a `ShortBufferException` is thrown. In this case, repeat this call with a larger output buffer. Use `getOutputSize` to determine how big the output buffer should be.

      Note: this method should be copy-safe, which means the `input` and `output` buffers can reference the same block of memory and no unprocessed input data is overwritten when the result is copied into the output buffer.

      Parameters:
        `input` - the input ByteBuffer
        `output` - the output ByteByffer
      Returns:
        the number of bytes stored in `output`
      Throws:

      Finishes a multiple-part encryption or decryption operation, depending on how this cipher was initialized.

      Input data that may have been buffered during a previous `update` operation is processed, with padding (if requested) being applied. If an AEAD mode such as GCM/CCM is being used, the authentication tag is appended in the case of encryption, or verified in the case of decryption. The result is stored in a new buffer.

      Upon finishing, this method resets this cipher object to the state it was in when previously initialized via a call to `init`. That is, the object is reset and available to encrypt or decrypt (depending on the operation mode that was specified in the call to `init`) more data.

      Note: if any exception is thrown, this cipher object may need to be reset before it can be used again.

      Returns:
        the new buffer with the result
      Throws:
        `IllegalStateException` - if this cipher is in a wrong state (e.g., has not been initialized)
        `IllegalBlockSizeException` - if this cipher is a block cipher, no padding has been requested (only in encryption mode), and the total input length of the data processed by this cipher is not a multiple of block size; or if this encryption algorithm is unable to process the input data provided.
        `BadPaddingException` - if this cipher is in decryption mode, and (un)padding has been requested, but the decrypted data is not bounded by the appropriate padding bytes
        `AEADBadTagException` - if this cipher is decrypting in an AEAD mode (such as GCM/CCM), and the received authentication tag does not match the calculated value

      Upon finishing, this method resets this cipher object to the state it was in when previously initialized via a call to `init`. That is, the object is reset and available to encrypt or decrypt (depending on the operation mode that was specified in the call to `init`) more data.

      Note: if any exception is thrown, this cipher object may need to be reset before it can be used again.

      Note: this method should be copy-safe, which means the `input` and `output` buffers can reference the same byte array and no unprocessed input data is overwritten when the result is copied into the output buffer.

      Parameters:
        `input` - the input buffer
        `inputOffset` - the offset in `input` where the input starts
        `inputLen` - the input length
        `output` - the buffer for the result
      Returns:
        the number of bytes stored in `output`
      Throws:
        `IllegalStateException` - if this cipher is in a wrong state (e.g., has not been initialized)
        `IllegalBlockSizeException` - if this cipher is a block cipher, no padding has been requested (only in encryption mode), and the total input length of the data processed by this cipher is not a multiple of block size; or if this encryption algorithm is unable to process the input data provided.
        `ShortBufferException` - if the given output buffer is too small to hold the result
        `BadPaddingException` - if this cipher is in decryption mode, and (un)padding has been requested, but the decrypted data is not bounded by the appropriate padding bytes
        `AEADBadTagException` - if this cipher is decrypting in an AEAD mode (such as GCM/CCM), and the received authentication tag does not match the calculated value

    - #### doFinal

          public final int doFinal(byte[] input,
                    int inputOffset,
                    int inputLen,
                    byte[] output,
                    int outputOffset)
                            throws ShortBufferException,
                                   IllegalBlockSizeException,
                                   BadPaddingException

      Encrypts or decrypts data in a single-part operation, or finishes a multiple-part operation. The data is encrypted or decrypted, depending on how this cipher was initialized.

      The first `inputLen` bytes in the `input` buffer, starting at `inputOffset` inclusive, and any input bytes that may have been buffered during a previous `update` operation, are processed, with padding (if requested) being applied. If an AEAD mode such as GCM/CCM is being used, the authentication tag is appended in the case of encryption, or verified in the case of decryption. The result is stored in the `output` buffer, starting at `outputOffset` inclusive.

      If the `output` buffer is too small to hold the result, a `ShortBufferException` is thrown. In this case, repeat this call with a larger output buffer. Use `getOutputSize` to determine how big the output buffer should be.

      Upon finishing, this method resets this cipher object to the state it was in when previously initialized via a call to `init`. That is, the object is reset and available to encrypt or decrypt (depending on the operation mode that was specified in the call to `init`) more data.

      Note: if any exception is thrown, this cipher object may need to be reset before it can be used again.

      Note: this method should be copy-safe, which means the `input` and `output` buffers can reference the same byte array and no unprocessed input data is overwritten when the result is copied into the output buffer.

      Parameters:
        `input` - the input buffer
        `inputOffset` - the offset in `input` where the input starts
        `inputLen` - the input length
        `output` - the buffer for the result
        `outputOffset` - the offset in `output` where the result is stored
      Returns:
        the number of bytes stored in `output`
      Throws:
        `IllegalStateException` - if this cipher is in a wrong state (e.g., has not been initialized)
        `IllegalBlockSizeException` - if this cipher is a block cipher, no padding has been requested (only in encryption mode), and the total input length of the data processed by this cipher is not a multiple of block size; or if this encryption algorithm is unable to process the input data provided.
        `ShortBufferException` - if the given output buffer is too small to hold the result
        `BadPaddingException` - if this cipher is in decryption mode, and (un)padding has been requested, but the decrypted data is not bounded by the appropriate padding bytes
        `AEADBadTagException` - if this cipher is decrypting in an AEAD mode (such as GCM/CCM), and the received authentication tag does not match the calculated value

    - #### doFinal

          public final int doFinal(ByteBuffer input,
                    ByteBuffer output)
                            throws ShortBufferException,
                                   IllegalBlockSizeException,
                                   BadPaddingException

      Encrypts or decrypts data in a single-part operation, or finishes a multiple-part operation. The data is encrypted or decrypted, depending on how this cipher was initialized.

      All `input.remaining()` bytes starting at `input.position()` are processed. If an AEAD mode such as GCM/CCM is being used, the authentication tag is appended in the case of encryption, or verified in the case of decryption. The result is stored in the output buffer. Upon return, the input buffer's position will be equal to its limit; its limit will not have changed. The output buffer's position will have advanced by n, where n is the value returned by this method; the output buffer's limit will not have changed.

      If `output.remaining()` bytes are insufficient to hold the result, a `ShortBufferException` is thrown. In this case, repeat this call with a larger output buffer. Use `getOutputSize` to determine how big the output buffer should be.

      Upon finishing, this method resets this cipher object to the state it was in when previously initialized via a call to `init`. That is, the object is reset and available to encrypt or decrypt (depending on the operation mode that was specified in the call to `init`) more data.

      Note: if any exception is thrown, this cipher object may need to be reset before it can be used again.

      Note: this method should be copy-safe, which means the `input` and `output` buffers can reference the same byte array and no unprocessed input data is overwritten when the result is copied into the output buffer.

      Parameters:
        `input` - the input ByteBuffer
        `output` - the output ByteBuffer
      Returns:
        the number of bytes stored in `output`
      Throws:
        `IllegalStateException` - if this cipher is in a wrong state (e.g., has not been initialized)
        `IllegalArgumentException` - if input and output are the same object
        `ReadOnlyBufferException` - if the output buffer is read-only
        `IllegalBlockSizeException` - if this cipher is a block cipher, no padding has been requested (only in encryption mode), and the total input length of the data processed by this cipher is not a multiple of block size; or if this encryption algorithm is unable to process the input data provided.
        `ShortBufferException` - if there is insufficient space in the output buffer
        `BadPaddingException` - if this cipher is in decryption mode, and (un)padding has been requested, but the decrypted data is not bounded by the appropriate padding bytes
        `AEADBadTagException` - if this cipher is decrypting in an AEAD mode (such as GCM/CCM), and the received authentication tag does not match the calculated value

      Continues a multi-part update of the Additional Authentication Data (AAD).

      Calls to this method provide AAD to the cipher when operating in modes such as AEAD (GCM/CCM). If this cipher is operating in either GCM or CCM mode, all AAD must be supplied before beginning operations on the ciphertext (via the `update` and `doFinal` methods).
