## Member Function Documentation

## Decrypt()

DecodingResult TF_DecryptorBase::Decrypt | ( | RandomNumberGenerator & | rng,
|  | const byte * | ciphertext,
|  | size_t | ciphertextLength,
|  | byte * | plaintext,
|  | const NameValuePairs & | parameters = `g_nullNameValuePairs`
| ) |  | const

virtual

Decrypt a byte string.

Parameters

  rng | a RandomNumberGenerator derived class
  ciphertext | the encrypted byte buffer
  ciphertextLength | the size of the encrypted byte buffer
  plaintext | a byte buffer to hold the decrypted string
  parameters | a set of NameValuePairs to initialize this object

Returns
  the result of the decryption operation

If DecodingResult::isValidCoding is true, then DecodingResult::messageLength is valid and holds the the actual length of the plaintext recovered. The result is undefined if decryption failed. If DecodingResult::isValidCoding is false, then DecodingResult::messageLength is undefined.

Precondition
  `COUNTOF(plaintext) == MaxPlaintextLength(ciphertextLength)` ensures the output byte buffer is large enough
