    Default Writing an encryption program, and keep getting this exception.

    I am writing a message encryption program, and keep getting this exception listed below. (Yes I have installed the unlimited strength policy files.)
    Exception in thread "main" java.lang.ExceptionInInitializerError

    When I run the program it works until the very end. First It asks you to put a password for the encryption. When the user has entered the password it creates a key for it. It then prompts you to enter whether you are encrypting or encrypting text. After picking the encryption option it asks you to enter the text to be encrypted. When the text is entered it gives you the exception above. Below this I will include the code for the entire program.

    Default Re: Writing an encryption program, and keep getting this exception.

    When I changed the program to get its input from the Scanner:
          sc = new Scanner("password\ne\nThe message\n"); //System.in);
    The program hangs?

    What input should the program get from the Scanner object?
    If you don't understand my answer, don't ignore it, ask a question.

    Sorry this response took so long. I have been in the car all day. I am very new to java, so don't be mad if this question is basic, but what do you mean the program hangs? Also which scanner are you talking about? Again forgive me, but I am very new at Java.

    Norm changed the code to get input from a Scanner object. By "hangs" he means that the program sits and waits for some input to be entered.

    By hangs I meant that the program did not print out any messages when I allowed it to execute for many seconds.
