About setup

Your setup will depend on whether or not you use maven. Also, if you're going to use the xml configuration, there's a bit of xml namespace setup to do.

With maven

Add the following dependency block to your pom:

<dependency>
    <groupId>com.google.code.spring-crypto-utils</groupId>
    <artifactId>spring-crypto-utils</artifactId>
    <version>1.4.0</version>
</dependency>

Without maven

Download the latest jar and put the file in the classpath of your application.

The following jars are also needed:

• Apache Commons
  • commons-logging:commons-logging:jar:1.2 download
  • commons-codec:commons-codec:jar:1.10 download
• Spring Framework
  • aopalliance:aopalliance:jar:1.0 download
  • org.springframework:spring-aop:jar:4.1.4.RELEASE download
  • org.springframework:spring-beans:jar:4.1.4.RELEASE download
  • org.springframework:spring-context:jar:4.1.4.RELEASE download
  • org.springframework:spring-core:jar:4.1.4.RELEASE download
  • org.springframework:spring-expression:jar:4.1.4.RELEASE download

Xml Namespace

To use the xml configuration, you will need to declare the crypt namespace in your spring context xml configuration files, like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
    xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
    xmlns:crypt="http://springcryptoutils.com/schema/crypt"
    xsi:schemaLocation="
        http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans
        http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans.xsd
        http://springcryptoutils.com/schema/crypt
        http://springcryptoutils.com/schema/crypt.xsd">

</beans>

This gets you full autocompletion support in an xsd aware editor such as Intellij Idea.
