Symmetric encryption wrappers for Clojure

lock-key's Issues

Problem decrypting

Hi, sorry to disturb you,

I want to ask something, so i'm using lock-key to encrypt - decrypt password and store it in MySQL
Problem is i can encrypt it using :

(def lock-string "tiniwinibiti")

(defn encrypting [string](encrypt string lock-string))
And store the encrypted password to MySQL
But when i try :
(defn decrypting [string](decrypt-as-str string lock-string))
From stored & encrypted password from MySQL i get :

IllegalArgumentException Value out of range for byte: ¥ clojure.lang.RT.byteCast (RT.java:993)

Can you please help?

Thank you

Inapproriate use of AssertionError

Recently, the exception behavior of lock-key was recently changed to raise an AssertionError. I would offer that this is an inappropriate use of that error class. AssertionError is for your own programming errors. IllegalArgumentException was perfectly appropriate before. Instead, this AssertionError now stops my program, and that ought to be for me to decide not the library.
