The stringEncryptionExclude Statement

The ZKM Script stringEncryptionExclude statement excludes specified String literals from being encrypted by the Zelix KlassMaster™ obfuscate statement. If an exclusion parameter is a classExcludeParameter then all the String literals within the specified class or classes will be excluded from String encryption. If an exclusion parameter is a fieldExcludeParameter then the initial values of matching String fields will not be String encrypted.

There is a subtle distinction here. If you exclude at the class level then you are excluding all the string literals of that class from String encryption. If you exclude at the field level then you are excluding only those String literals that initialize the specified fields. So "stringEncryptionExclude *.*" is NOT equivalent to "stringEncryptionExclude *.* *". The former has a more extensive effect than the latter.

The statement has no impact if the obfuscate statement's encryptStringLiterals parameter is set to none. Similarly, a parameter that specifies a non-String field or a String field that is not initialized has no impact. Successive stringEncryptionExclude statements have a cumulative effect. Once an exclusion has been set the only way to remove it is with a resetStringEncryptionExclusions statement.

The remainder of this page is organized into the following sections.

Explanation and Examples

stringEncryptionExclude statement parameters may be loosely categorized into the following groups

Class exclude parameters

Put informally (with mandatory components in bold), the syntax is:
<classAnnotations> <classModifiers> "<archiveQualifier>"!<packageQualifiers>.<className> <containingClause> <extendsClause> <implementsClause>;

For all the String literals in a class to be excluded, all of the following must be true:
  • Its annotations must match any specified annotations.
  • The class's modifiers (e.g. public final) must match all parameter modifiers. So if the parameters are public abstract !interface then the class must be public, abstract and NOT an interface to be excluded.
  • If the parameter has an archive qualifier then the class must be contained in an archive which matches that archive qualifier.
  • The class's package qualifiers must match any specified package exclude parameter component. If there is no package exclude parameter component then the class must be in the default package.
  • The class's unqualified name must match the parameter's class name specifier.
  • If the parameter has a containing clause then the class must contain members which match the specified class
  • If the parameter has an extends clause then the class must be a subclass of the specified class
  • If the parameter has an implements clause then the class must directly or indirectly implement all of the specified interfaces
stringEncryptionExclude 
          pack2.Class1 and //Exclude all string literals in class pack2.Class1 from encryption
          *.* and //Exclude all string literals in all classes from encryption
          //Exclude all string literals in all classes contained in a JAR file with a name matching "MyJar*.jar"
          "MyJar*.jar"!*.* and 
          //Exclude all string literals in all classes annotated which an annotation matching *.MyAnnotation0 
          @*.MyAnnotation0 *.*; 

Field exclude parameters

Put informally (with mandatory components in bold), the syntax is:
<classAnnotations> <classModifiers> "<archiveQualifier>"!<packageQualifiers>.<className> <extendsClause> <implementsClause>
    <fieldAnnotations> <fieldModifiers> <fieldType> <fieldName>;

For the intitialization String literal of a field to be excluded, all of the following must be true:
  • The field's containing class must match any class exclude parameter component (see Class exclude parameters).
  • The field's annotations must match any specified field level annotations.
  • The field's modifiers (e.g. public volatile) must match all parameter field modifiers. So if the parameters are public static !transient then the field must be public, static and NOT transient to be excluded.
  • The field's type (e.g. int[] or java.lang.String) must match the parameter field type if it exists.
  • The field's name must match the parameter field name specifier.

          pack2.Class1 * and //Exclude string literals that initialize any fields 
                             //in pack2.Class1 from encryption
          //Exclude string literals that initialize any fields annotated with a class matching *.MyAnnotation0.
