How do encrypt a long or int using the Bouncy Castle crypto routines for BlackBerry?

How do encrypt/decrypt a long or int using the Bouncy Castle crypto routines for BlackBerry? I know how to encrypt/decrypt a String. I can encrypt a long but can't get a long to decrypt properly.

Some of this is poorly done, but I'm just trying stuff out at the moment.

I've included my entire crypto engine here:

import org.bouncycastle.crypto.BufferedBlockCipher;
import org.bouncycastle.crypto.DataLengthException;
import org.bouncycastle.crypto.InvalidCipherTextException;

    // Global Objects

    private static BufferedBlockCipher cipher;

    private static KeyParameter key;

    public static boolean setEncryptionKey(String keyText)
    {
        // adding in spaces to force a proper key
        keyText += "                  ";

        // cutting off at 128 bits (16 characters)
        keyText = keyText.substring(0, 16);

        keyText = HelperMethods.cleanUpNullString(keyText);
        byte[] keyBytes = keyText.getBytes();
        key = new KeyParameter(keyBytes);
        engine = new AESFastEngine();
        cipher = new PaddedBufferedBlockCipher(engine);

        // just for now
        return true;
    }

It's probably the conversion from long -> byte[] -> String, in particular the conversion from String back into byte[]. You don't pass in an encoding for String.getBytes() so it's going to be using the default character encoding, which may be altering your data.

My suggestion is to expose encrypt/decrypt methods that take byte[] as an argument, to avoid String/byte[] conversion.

Also, you may want to take a look at the native RIM AES classes, AESEncryptorEngine and AESDecryptorEngine which may be faster than BouncyCastle (since they're native APIs) and require less code.

I just realized that with strong ciphers, the result length is usually/always greater than the length of the original. If it wasn't, a lookup table could be used. As such, its not possible to encrypt a long into a long every time, especially if it uses all 64 bits. If this doesn't make sense, see me for more info:
