Class CryptCodecProvider

java.lang.Object
  com.healthmarketscience.jackcess.CryptCodecProvider

All Implemented Interfaces:

CodecProvider, PasswordCallback

public class CryptCodecProvider
extends Object
implements CodecProvider, PasswordCallback

Implementation of CodecProvider with support for some forms of Microsoft Access and Microsoft Money file encryption.

Note, not all "encrypted" access databases actually require passwords in order to be opened. Many older forms of access "encryption" ("obfuscation" would be a better term) include the keys within the access file itself. If required, a password can be provided in one of two ways:

• If a PasswordCallback has been provided (via the constructor or setPasswordCallback(com.healthmarketscience.jackcess.PasswordCallback)), then PasswordCallback.getPassword() will be invoked to retrieve the necessary password
• If no PasswordCallback has been configured, then getPassword() will be invoked directly on the CryptCodecProvider (which will return the password configured via the constructor or setPassword(java.lang.String))
