    InitVector property
    In This Topic

    Description

    The InitVector property allows you to set the initialization vector required by secret-key encryption algorithms when the EncryptionMode property is set to emoChainedBlocks.

    You can initialize this property with a random value by calling the SetRandomInitVector method, or you can initialize it from a PassPhrase by calling the SetInitVectorFromPassPhrase method.

    It is recommended that you set this property to a different value for each message you encrypt.

    Data type

    Byte array variant

    Default value

    Null

    Applicable methods

    Encrypt, Decrypt, ReadFile, WriteFile, ProcessFile, ToString and FromString

    Declaration (IXceedEncryption) Copy Code

    HRESULT GetInitVector( [size_is][size_is][out] BYTE** ppcVector, [out] short* pnVectorSize )

    HRESULT SetInitVector( [size_is][in] const BYTE* pcVector, [in] short nVectorSize )
