I need to encrypt a stream with pgp using the bouncycastle provider. All of the examples I can find are about taking a plain text file and encrypting that however I won't have a file and it's important that the plain text never be written to disk.
Most of the methods I've seen are using
PGPUtil.writeFileToLiteralData which wants the plaintext passed in. I'd rather passin a byte[] or an inputStream.
Can someone point me to an example that
- starts from string/byte[]/inputstream
- encrypts said string/byte[] to an outputStrem that I can write to a file
- decrypts from an inputStream
In case anyone else stumbles upon this and wants the full solution
