Simple cryptography in Dynamics AX 2009
There are methods in AX which allow to encrypt and decrypt data easily. Those methods are WinAPIServer::cryptProtectData() for encryption and WinAPIServer::cryptUnProtectData() for decryption. As input and output parameters these methods use CryptoBlob extended data type, which is a container. However, this is not an arbitrary container. It should contain only bytes (integers in the range 0-255). There are methods on the Global class which allow to convert from and to CryptoBlob type, for example, Global::binary2cryptoblob() and Global::cryptoblob2binary().
Sample usage:
public static void Jimmy_cryptoTest() { str text = "xieyufan"; str decryptedText; CryptoBlob CryptoBlobed; ; //字符串加密后变成数字类型 CryptoBlobed = WinAPIServer::cryptProtectData(str2cryptoblob(text)); global::conview(CryptoBlobed); //数字类型解密后变成字符串类型 decryptedText = global::cryptoblob2str(WinAPIServer::cryptUnProtectData(CryptoBlobed)); info("" + decryptedText); }
