Encrypting using OpenPGP Library for Java.

In version 2.5.7, expired and revoked public keys are not accepted for encryption.

OpenPGP Library for Java is a pure Java library that simplifies OpenPGP cryptographic development. Many financial companies and IT departments searching for a proven OpenPGP solution in Java have saved time with this simple yet powerful SDK. OpenPGP for Java allows you to perform common OpenPGP tasks: encrypt, decrypt, sign, sign and encrypt, verify, clear sign, generate OpenPGP keys and more. OpenPGP for Java supports JDK 1.4+ (1.4, 1.5, 1.6) from Sun (now Oracle) or IBM OS Windows, Mac OS X, Solaris, RedHat, SuSE, Ubuntu, AIX, HP-UX, FreeBSD. The encrypted files created with the library are compatible with the OpenPGP standard, and can be opened with PGP software and GnuPG. Runtime Royalty Free.

Updates in 2.5.7

A key change in this release is that by default expired and revoked public keys are not accepted for encryption. If you still wish to use such keys you will have to enable them by calling PGPLib.setUseExpiredKeys(true) and PGPLib.setUseRevokedKeys(true)

Added method: PGPLib.decryptAndVerifyStreamTo - decrypts a stream content with its original name(s) into a folder
Added method: PGPLib.setUseExpiredKeys(true) - switches on/off the check are the encryption keys expired
Added method: PGPLib.setUseRevokedKeys(true) - switches on/off the check are the encryption keys revoked
Added method: PGPLib.isUseExpiredKeys() - returns the state of the check are the encryption keys expired
Added method: PGPLib.isUseRevokedKeys() - returns the state of the check are the encryption keys revoked
Added method: KeyPairInformation.checkPassword(password) - checks is a given password for a private key correct.
Added method: KeyPairInformation.hasPrivateKey() - returns is there a private key in this key pair.
Added method: KeyPairInformation.isExpired() - indicates is the public key expired
Added method: KeyPairInformation.isExpiredOnDate(java.util.Date) - checks will the key be expired on a given date
New Exception: Added class com.didisoft.pgp.exceptions.NonPGPDataException (extends PGPException) thrown from all decrypt and decryptAndVerify methods when the supplied for decryption data is not an OpenPGP message.
New Exception: Added class com.didisoft.pgp.exceptions.KeyIsExpiredException (extends PGPException) thrown from all encrypt and signAndEncrypt methods when the supplied public key is expired. Can be suppressed with PGPLib.setUseExpiredKeys(true)
New Exception: Added class com.didisoft.pgp.exceptions.KeyIsRevokedException (extends PGPException) thrown from all encrypt and signAndEncrypt methods when the supplied public key is revoked. Can be suppressed with PGPLib.setUseRevokedKeys(true)

FlexGantt 2.0 released

Thu, 08 Sep 2011 13:55:00 GMT

Navigation sample included with FlexGantt.

Adds selectable links (relationships), menu support for links and new animated tree node expand / collapse operations.

FlexGantt is an advanced Gantt chart user interface component for Swing, which allows its users to interact with project plans and scheduling results. Applications using FlexGantt can customize the Gantt component in almost any way. Not only the rendering and editing of timeline related data can be modified but also the behavior of the entire component. This is accomplished by pluggable policy implementations, where each policy controls the behavior of a certain aspect of the Gantt chart. FlexGantt uses a very high abstraction level, which allows it to be applied in various and often very different domains such as project planning (resources, people, tasks), ERP systems, production planning and scheduling applications, manufacturing execution systems or project portfolio management applications.

Updates in V2.0

Selectable links (relationships)
Menu support for links
Different relationship types (start - end, end - start, start - start, end - end)
Improved graphics performance
Animated tree node expand / collapse operations
