## Class PKCS1Encoding

- java.lang.Object
- - org.bouncycastle.crypto.encodings.PKCS1Encoding

- All Implemented Interfaces:
    AsymmetricBlockCipher

      public class PKCS1Encoding
      extends java.lang.Object
      implements AsymmetricBlockCipher

  this does your basic PKCS 1 v1.5 padding - whether or not you should be using this depends on your application - see PKCS1 Version 2 for details.

    Fields
    Modifier and Type | Field and Description
    --- | ---
    `static java.lang.String` | `NOT_STRICT_LENGTH_ENABLED_PROPERTY` some providers fail to include the leading zero in PKCS1 encoded blocks.
    `static java.lang.String` | `STRICT_LENGTH_ENABLED_PROPERTY` Deprecated. use NOT_STRICT_LENGTH_ENABLED_PROPERTY

  - ### Constructor Summary

    Constructors
    Constructor and Description
    `PKCS1Encoding(AsymmetricBlockCipher cipher)` Basic constructor.
    `PKCS1Encoding(AsymmetricBlockCipher cipher, byte[] fallback)` Constructor for decryption with a fixed plaintext length and a fallback value that is returned, if the padding is incorrect.
    `PKCS1Encoding(AsymmetricBlockCipher cipher, int pLen)` Constructor for decryption with a fixed plaintext length.

    - #### STRICT_LENGTH_ENABLED_PROPERTY

          public static final java.lang.String STRICT_LENGTH_ENABLED_PROPERTY

      Deprecated. use NOT_STRICT_LENGTH_ENABLED_PROPERTY
      See Also:
        Constant Field Values

    - #### NOT_STRICT_LENGTH_ENABLED_PROPERTY

          public static final java.lang.String NOT_STRICT_LENGTH_ENABLED_PROPERTY

      some providers fail to include the leading zero in PKCS1 encoded blocks. If you need to work with one of these set the system property org.bouncycastle.pkcs1.not_strict to true.

      The system property is checked during construction of the encoding object, it is set to false by default.
