DefaultBlockCipherService.setBlockSize

Sets the block cipher's block size to be used when constructing {@link javax.crypto.Cipher Cipher} transformation string. {@code 0} indicates that the JCA Provider default block size for the specified {@link #getAlgorithmName() algorithm} should be used. <p/> This attribute is used <em>only</em> when constructing the transformation string for block (byte array) operations ({@link #encrypt(byte[], byte[])} and {@link #decrypt(byte[], byte[])}). The {@link #getStreamingBlockSize() streamingBlockSize} attribute is used when the block cipher is used for streaming operations. <p/> The default value is {@code 0} which retains the JCA Provider default. <p/> <b>NOTE:</b> block cipher block sizes are very algorithm-specific. If you change this value, ensure that it will work with the specified {@link #getAlgorithmName() algorithm}.

@param blockSize the block cipher block size to be used when constructing the {@link javax.crypto.Cipher Cipher} transformation string, or {@code 0} if the JCA Provider default block size for the specified {@link #getAlgorithmName() algorithm} should be used.
