A multi-purpose Cryptography library in Java. Working on it day by day, slowly. Someday this will be complete, today is not that day. To be clear, this is NOT mean't to be a replacement/alternative to BouncyCastle. Instead, it is meant to include what BouncyCastle does not have.

Current Objective: ZekerRijndael (custom from-scratch AES-128 block cipher)

Note: i'm creating ZekerRijndael as it can be used for creating the following encryption ciphers: AES-CTR; AES-OFB; AES-CFB. Block modes include AES-CBC; AES-ECB. And of course AES-GCM + ASE-CCM

View the "zekerRijndael" branch to see inprogress work.

Use setopt interactivecomments (zsh only) to allow using # for comments if you see errors like zsh: command not found: #

Ensure Java + javac are installed, on MacOS it can be installed with Homebrew by running brew install openjdk

To compile on MacOS 26 (may work on other OS, idk):

1. git clone https://github.com/Geprivilegieerde-Anonimiteit-BV/XACrypto.git # download the git repository
2. mkdir -p out # create output directory
3. javac -d out $(find src -name "*.java") # converts .java into .class bytecode
4. jar cfe XACrypto.jar de.caydenno1.xacrypto.XACrypto -C out . # package the .class files into a .jar
5. (optional)- jar tf XACrypto.jar # view the contents of the jarfile

To compile on Windows 10 (requires java+javac to already be installed):

1. git clone https://github.com/Geprivilegieerde-Anonimiteit-BV/XACrypto.git && REM download the git repository
2. mkdir out && REM create output directory
3. dir /s /b src*.java > sources.txt && REM create sources
4. javac -d out @sources.txt && REM form sources into java bytecode
5. jar cfe XACrypto.jar de.caydenno1.xacrypto.XACrypto -C out . && REM form java bytecode into jar
6. (optional)- jar tf XACrypto.jar && view jarfile contents

XACrypto.jar is now in the project root (if u did everything correctly).
