I need to know, which cipher algorithm is used by
org.eclipse.core.internal.runtime.auth.Cipher .
According to my information, the mentioned class does the encryption of
passwords in the eclipse-preferences-section (e.g. the CVS-proxy-password).
I would like to know, which cipher-algorithm is used to do the encryption,
or if it's configurable?
Thanks for your replies!

If you look at the source code, you will see it simply uses SHA-1 from
the JRE. The algorithm is not configurable. However, this mechanism is
deprecated in Eclipse 3.4 in favour of new Equinox secure storage API.
The secure storage API allows the end user to specify the encryption
algorithm on the "Secure Storage" preference page.
