Gives the value for any portal preference.

Parameters

type

the type of setting (e.g., Admin, User, or Portlet)

name

the name of the setting

crypto

the cryptographer that can decode the setting value

Return Value

the decoded setting value

Remarks

Uses the cryptographer supplied by the client to unencrypt the setting value from the portal. For example:

IPortletRequest portletRequest = ...;

byte[] secretKey = new byte[8] { 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 };

byte[] initVector new byte[8] { 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 };

ICryptoTransform cryptoTransform = new DESCryptoServiceProvider().CreateDecryptor(secretKey, initVector);

String decryptedValue = portletRequest.GetEncryptedSettingValue(SettingType.Admin, "password", cipher);

Note that the CreateEncryptor method on the same CryptoServiceProvider should be used to encrypt the value in IPortletResponse.SetEncryptedSettingValue
