I want to do encrypt and decrypt on image files. However, when i run this codes, it give me this error
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.ClassCastException: javax.crypto.CipherInputStream cannot be cast to javax.imageio.stream.ImageOutputStream
at encypt.com.trial.main(trial.java:82)
and when i tried to open the sheepTest.png image, it cannot be open as the file appears to be damaged, corrupted or it is too large.
I've tried many ways already, however I still cannot find the mistake.Can anyone help me to solve the error? Thank you.

First of all, don't name your FileInputStream output. Second, the issue is that you try to cast your CipherInputStream to an imageoutputstream (like the error says) here:
ImageIO.write(input,"PNG",(ImageOutputStream) cos);
This won't work as CipherInputStream isn't an ImageOutputStream.
Alright, found a further issue on your naming; I think you named it right, but used the wrong class; change your last few lines to this:
FileOutputStream output = new FileOutputStream("sheepTest.png");
CipherOutputStream cos = new CipherOutputStream(output, pbeCipher);
ImageIO.write(input, "PNG", cos);
cos.close();
For writing out, you want to use an OutputStream (or FileOutputStream or Cipher or whatever you need).
