Hello Sam,

>From the Java version you used created array ,byte[] encodedKey = new
byte[(int) keyFile.length()];, but in clojure version you did (into-array
Byte/TYPE (byte-seq stream)) , why not  use make-array here.

(byte-seq stream) returns list, is that the right argument for constructor
call?

Did  you try this;

(make-array Byte/TYPE (int (. (java.io.File. "public.der") length)))

Regards,
Emeka
