    Modifier and Type Method Description
    static String toDecryptedText​(String aText)
    Decrypt the given text in case it has the prefix identifying the text as being encrypted, else the plain text is returned and a warning is printed out that the passed text is not encrypted (just the first two or three chars or zero chars are shown depending on the length of the text). ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Attention: A unique system TID is used for decryption.
    static String toDecryptedText​(String aText, String aPassPharse)
    Decrypt the given text in case it has the prefix identifying the text as being encrypted, else the plain text is returned and a warning is printed out that the passed text is not encrypted (just the first two or three chars or zero chars are shown depending on the length of the text).
    static String toEncryptedText​(String aText)
    Encrypts the given text and prepends a prefix identifying the text as being encrypted. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Attention: A unique system TID is used for encryption.
    static String toEncryptedText​(String aText, String aPassPhrase)
    Encrypts the given text and prepends a prefix identifying the text as being encrypted.

    • toDecryptedText

      public static String toDecryptedText​(String aText)
      Decrypt the given text in case it has the prefix identifying the text as being encrypted, else the plain text is returned and a warning is printed out that the passed text is not encrypted (just the first two or three chars or zero chars are shown depending on the length of the text). ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Attention: A unique system TID is used for decryption. Decryption with this method will only work on the same system used for encryption via toEncryptedText(String)! ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This method is most useful for encrypting passwords or authentication credentials in configuration files on live servers to provide at least a minimum of security.
      Parameters:
      aText - The text being decrypted.
      Returns:
      The decrypted text.
    • toDecryptedText

      Parameters:
      aText - The text being decrypted.
      aPassPharse - The pass phrase for decrypting.
      Returns:
      The decrypt
