Detailed Description

This class acts as a central repository for an algorithm specific properties.

It reads an (algorithm).properties file containing algorithm- specific properties. When using the AES-Kit, this (algorithm).properties file is located in the (algorithm).jar file produced by the "jarit" batch/ script command.

Member Function Documentation

getLevel()

static int getLevel ( String  label )

staticpackage

Return the debug level for a given class.

User indicates this by setting the numeric property with key "<code>Debug.Level.<i>label</i></code>".

If this property is not set, "<code>Debug.Level.*</code>" is looked up next. If neither property is set, or if the first property found is not a valid decimal integer, then this method returns 0.

Parameters

label

The name of a class.

Returns

The required debugging level for the designated class.

getOutput()

static PrintWriter getOutput ( )

staticpackage

Return the PrintWriter to which tracing and debugging output is to be sent.

User indicates this by setting the property with key Output to the literal out or err.

By default or if the set value is not allowed, System.err will be used.

getProperty()

static String getProperty ( String  key )

static

Get the value of a property for this algorithm.

isTraceable()

static boolean isTraceable ( String  label )

staticpackage

Return true if tracing is requested for a given class.

User indicates this by setting the tracing boolean property for label in the (algorithm).properties file. The property's key is "<code>Trace.<i>label</i></code>".

Parameters

label

The name of a class.

Returns

True iff a boolean true value is set for a property with the key Trace.label.

list() [1/2]

static void list ( PrintStream  out )

static

List algorithm properties to the PrintStream out.

list() [2/2]

static void list ( PrintWriter  out )

static

List algorithm properties to the PrintWriter out.
