[Cryptix-users] Extra character on decryption..

[Himesh M. <hm...@hn...>]

Hi,
=20
I am trying to work my way through the examples to decrypt a file. Below =
is the psedo code.
=20
  // Read the message file.
  FileInputStream fis =3D null;
  try {
   fis =3D new FileInputStream(fileName);
  } catch (FileNotFoundException e1) {
   logger.error("Unable the file to be decoded");
   throw new PGPHelperException("Missing the message file" +=20
     e1.getMessage());
  }
  EncryptedMessage encMsg =3D null;
=20
  // Try to read message
  try {
   Collection msgs =3D this.mf.generateMessages(fis);
            encMsg =3D (EncryptedMessage)msgs.iterator().next();
        } catch (Exception e) {
            System.out.println(e.getMessage());
        }=20
=20
  // Decode the message and return decoded message.
  try {
   PGPSignedMessageImpl decMsg =3D  (PGPSignedMessageImpl) =
encMsg.decrypt(this.key, // the key
           "passphrase".toCharArray());
  =20
   String decodedMessage =3D String(decMsg.getContents().getEncoded());
  } catch (Exception e) {
   System.out.println(e.getMessage());
  }

When I look at the decodedString I always get some extra garbage =
characters. For example: If my file had word -- "Test" and the file name =
was "TestDocument.txt"
=20
I get following output.=20

=AC=1Ab=10TestDocument.txt=FETest

=20
=20
Can someone help me out to get rid of the extra characters ? =20
