Decrypting layer in order to use crypted xml config files; tool to encrypt the
xml files; embeded xml files
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: IBATISNET-160
URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IBATISNET-160
Project: iBatis for .NET
Type: Wish
Components: DataMapper
Versions: DataMapper 2.0, DataMapper 1.3, DataMapper 1.5
Environment: Windows-Linux(Mono), although applies to the Java version
Reporter: cristian manea
It would be interesting to be able to use encrypted XML configuration files,
the configuration loader should be able to decrypt that file before
deserializing.
Some of the benefits would be:
- avoid that someone not informed plays with your mapping, putting your
application in jeopardy; of course, a malfunction would appear, but nobody
would admit that has done something (a common enterprise
scenario...unfortunately)
- avoid exposing your persistence logic to others (as iBatis could be used
by some not open-source software)
Is there any workaround that could be used (an embeded resource instead of a
file on file-system, ecc)? I've seen in the sdk help a function called "public
static XmlDocument GetEmbeddedResourceAsXmlDocument(string resource);", but
with no further explaination.
Regards.
