CryptoService in hivemind

[Ken nashua]

Folks,

My CryptoService adheres to my own unique interface. So I have no need to 
associate or latch onto anything HLS created.

But I did try to bootstrap it into hivemind as an ASO
   <contribution configuration-id="tapestry.state.ApplicationObjects">
       <state-object name="cryptoService" scope="application">
           <create-instance class="common.crypto.CryptoService"/>
       </state-object>
   </contribution>

but upon operating my annotation in java

        @InjectState("cryptoService")
        public abstract CryptoService getCryptoService();

The thing quits with an exception stating that the object was not formatted

[ +/- ] Exception: Error: An error occured processing annotation 
@org.apache.tapestry.annotations.InjectObject(value=cryptoService) of public 
abstract common.crypto.CryptoService proto.Login.getCryptoService(): Error: 
Object provider selector 'cryptoService' is not properly formatted.


But then I found other hivemind threads that talk about HiveUtils saying 
that there is no way to treat any pojo like above and we should be doing 
this...

   <contribution configuration-id="hiveutils.ObjectBuilderObjects">
       <object name="CryptoService" cached="true" 
class="common.crypto.CryptoService">
           <inject name="entityService" object="service:EntityService" />
       </object>
   </contribution>
   <contribution configuration-id="tapestry.state.ApplicationObjects">
       <state-object name="cryptoService" scope="application">
           <invoke-factory object="object:CryptoService" />
       </state-object>
   </contribution>

But that failed due to non-existent config id of some sort...

Can anyone tell me how to get my basic pojo+unique interface into hivemind?

Using tap-4.1.1

Thanks in advance

Best regards
Ken

---> Here is the interface
package common.crypto;

public interface ICrypto {

        public SecretKey generateKey();

        public Cipher createCipher();

        public String enCipher(String value);

        public String deCipher(String value);
}

---> Here is the implementation
package common.crypto;

public class CryptoService implements Serializable, ICrypto, 
StateObjectFactory {
        private Cipher cipher;

        private SecretKey key;

        public CryptoService() {
                generateKey();
                createCipher();
        }

        public Object createStateObject() {
                return new CryptoService();
        }

        public SecretKey generateKey() {
                try {
                        KeyGenerator keygen = KeyGenerator.getInstance("DES");
                        key = keygen.generateKey();
                } catch (NoSuchAlgorithmException ex) {
                        System.out.println(ExceptionFormatter.logException(ex));
                }
                return key;

                        byte[] text = cipher.doFinal(value.getBytes());
                        result = new String(text.toString());
                } catch (InvalidKeyException ex) {

                } catch (IllegalBlockSizeException ex) {
                        System.out.println(ExceptionFormatter.logException(ex));
                }
                return result;
        }

        public String deCipher(String value) {
                String result = "";
                try {
                        cipher.init(Cipher.DECRYPT_MODE, key);

                        // Decrypt the ciphertext
                        byte[] text = cipher.doFinal(value.getBytes());
                        result = new String(text.toString());
