I have a problem reading the decrypted messages and the decryptStream.read()
doesn't return me any bytes. See the code below that I used to encrypt data. I
am writing data to file using the encryptStream returned by the following
method.
On the other hand when I write the content to the file with in the following
method and later close all streams I can successfully decrypt the files. Has
anyone used streaming with gpg using RSA successfully. If so, can any one share
the information on how to do it.
I created a key using RSA with 1024 bytes using gpg --gen-key and used addkey
to add the sub key. I am using Bouncy Castle DataGenerators, Input and
outputStreams to stream the output from program and writing the encrypted
content to files. However the only way I could successfully decrypt files was
when I open, write and close compression, encryption and literal streams in the
same method. But for my needs I would like to return a encrypted stream and let
that stream be used for writing various data to files.
