Erik,

The functionality of the usecase is like this

1. Grab a userid and password from the user and store it in an xml file

2. A jar would then read this userid and password to connect to a webservice

So all I wanted was to store the password entered by the user in an encrypted format and decrypt it back in the jar.

I cannot use hash function because the webservice that I'm calling doesn't accept hash but takes the actual password

RSA is what I was looking into

Ah, in that case, we don't have such a function readily available.

Note that it is typical to use a hashing algorithm for passwords, rather than encrypt/decrypt.

What encryption algorithm are you looking for specifically?

Erik,

I do not want a digest, i want an encryption function so that I can store the password as encrypted text and decrypt it wherever required.

SD,

Yes, Orbeon supports the XForms 1.1 digest() function:

Hi,

I have an input field

Password

I'm storing this in the database as clear text, does orbeon support
encryption algo like RSA or DES (anyother) so that I can store encrypted
text instead of clear.

Thanks
