Encrypted Fields

    What design (or pattern) is best for fields that are to be encrypted?

    MySQL has quite a few simple functions that can be used to encrypt
    data. However, when using Cayenne to fetch the data I have not found
    a simple solution.

    I have been testing using result directives and SQLTemplate, but the
    design is looking pretty messy.

    I guess the first question is: can I rely on MySQL aes_encrypt()/
    aes_decrypt() while using Cayenne or will I have to go to a java
    encryption class?

    Thanks,
    Joe
