Lab2: RSA Encryption program(Eclipse)

In this tutorial, we will learn to create an RSA Encrytion application. User can enter a text into the editable textbox and
then click the "Encrypt" button. The application will put the cipher text onto the second textbox. Then, clicking the
"Decrypt" button will result in the plain text shown in the last textbox.
Objective
This lab gives the reader a first impression of how the encryption and decryption works by taking RSA encryption and
decryption algorithm as an example. Also, we expect the reader to gain a general notion of the public-key encryption
infrastructure. In this lab, we will utilize the public-key infrastructure support by Java. For the private-key encryption
infrastructure example AES, we will leave it as a post-lab assignment for readers' implementation.

drag three EditTexts, two Buttons to the screen.

Set button1s Id property-> Id @+id/enbutton, and Text->Encrypt it by PublicKey
Set button2's Id property->Id @+id/debutton, and Text->Decrypt it by PirivateKey
Set EditText1's Id property-> Id @+id/Input, and Hint->Input Message
Set EditText2's Id property->Id @+id/raw, and Text->Encrypted Message
Set EditText3's Id property->Id @+id/OriginText, and Text->Original Message

{
String item = new String(b, n, 2);
b2[n/2] = (byte)Integer.parseInt(item, 16);
}
return b2;
}

Save and run the project, enter a message in to the Input textbox, click the Encrypt it by PublicKey button, the result will be like this.

Then click the "Decrypt it by PrivateKey", you can see this.
