| Encryption Provider |
| </title> |
| <para> |
| OpenJPA provides an interface for a provider to implement |
| connection password encryption. Whenever a connection password |
| is needed, the <methodname>decrypt(String)</methodname> method will be invoked. See |
| <ulink url="../../apidocs/org/apache/openjpa/lib/encryption/EncryptionProvider.html"> |
| <classname>org.apache.openjpa.lib.encryption.EncryptionProvider</classname> |
| </ulink> for the detailed Javadoc. |

| It is an OpenJPA user responsibility to implement the |
| <classname>EncryptionProvider</classname> |
| interface. There is no default implementation. |
