Interface SerializableDatabase

public interface SerializableDatabase

This interface allows for serialization and deserialization of KDBX databases.

Databases instantiate themselves from a stream and serialize to a stream, and need to be able to encrypt and decrypt data (e.g. Protected fields in KDBX format).

KDBX databases contain a header hash (i.e. a hash of the contents of some portion of the StreamFormat they have been loaded from or saved to. Which means that databases must support the setting of this value after the header has been written on save, and reading the value after load to allow for integrity checking.
