Uses the cryptographer supplied by the client to encrypt and set a new value for a setting.

Parameters

type

The type of setting (Admin, Community, CommunityPortlet, Portlet, Session, or User).

name

The name of the setting.

newValue

The new value to set for this setting.

crypto

The cryptographer that should be used to encrypt the setting value.

Remarks

To retrieve an encrypted setting, the portlet must use IPortletRequest.GetEncryptedSettingValue() with the same cryptographer. Note: UserInfo settings cannot be set by a ortlet. For example:

IPortletResponse portletResponse = ...;

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().CreateEncryptor(secretKey, initVector);

portletResponse.SetEncryptedSettingValue(SettingType.Admin, "password", "secretpassword",cryptoTransform);

Note: The CreateDecryptor method on the same CryptoServiceProvider should be used to decrypt the value in IPortletRequest.GetEncryptedSettingValue.
