BlowfishCBC.FinishEncrypt Method

Use this function to finish encrypting after you have encrypted all of the blocks.

FinishEncrypt() as String

Parameters

Returns

String

Remarks

If the total size of all blocks that you encrypt is not dividable by 8 then you will get 1 to 7 unencrypted bytes at the end. Because of that then you should add 7 bytes (PaddingBlockSize-1) of random bytes to the end of the encrypted stream to ensure that all of your data gets encrypted.

After you have finished encrypting all of the blocks then you should call FinishEncrypt which will let the encryptor clean up and it will return all unencrypted bytes there which should be part of the random bytes if you have done as descrbed above.
