Vishal,
As far as i can figure out...WRAP_MODE is used for keys, ENCRYPT_MODE is used for the

All,
Can someone explain what's the difference between the following two ways
of initializing the javax.crypto.Cipher class for encrypting a symmetric
key:
1) Cipher.init(WRAP_MODE, RSAPublicKey)
2) Cipher.init(ENCRYPT_MODE, RSAPublicKey)
I observe that XMLCipher.encryptKey() method a
