Hi,

It started working after I commented out the AlgorithmParameters params 
line.

I thought the d.SetKey(..) change would fix it, but it didn't seem to.

Hello,

I had Crypto PP code that was previously working and recently stopped 
working. We moved to a new version of our BSP.

Error is:
terminate called after throwing an instance of 
'CryptoPP::AlgorithmParametersBase::ParameterNotUsed'
  what():  AlgorithmParametersBase: parameter "IV" not used

Error is traced to this particular function below. 

I had it running with the Params in ECB mode still passing in the IV.
d.SetKey(key, key.size(),params);

Then I commented it out with:
d.SetKey(key, key.size());

Previously, it wasn't throwing an error even if IV is passed in ECB mode. 

Also, I don't know why it's falling through the catch statement and kills 
my program.

should I have a generic catch statement Exception e  to prevent this ?

std::string decrypt_aes(std::string cipherbytes, SecByteBlock key, 
SecByteBlock iv) {
try {
AlgorithmParameters params = MakeParameters(Name::FeedbackSize(), 1
/*8-bits*/)
(Name::IV(), ConstByteArrayParameter(iv));
//CFB_Mode<AES>::Decryption d;
ECB_Mode<AES>::Decryption d;
std::string recovered;
//d.SetKey(key, key.size(),params);
d.SetKey(key, key.size());
StringSource s(cipherbytes, true, new StreamTransformationFilter(d, new 
StringSink(recovered), CryptoPP::BlockPaddingSchemeDef::PKCS_PADDING));
return recovered;
}
catch (CryptoPP::Exception e) {
std::cerr << e.what() << std::endl;
return "";
}
}
