Upgrading From Version 1.2
===========================

With version 2.0.0 of this library came major changes to the ciphertext format,
algorithms used for encryption, and API.

In version 1.2, keys were represented by 16-byte string variables. In version
2.0.0, keys are represented by objects, instances of the `Key` class. This
change was made in order to make it harder to misuse the API. For example, in
version 1.2, you could pass in *any* 16-byte string, but in version 2.0.0 you
need a `Key` object, which you can only get if you're "doing the right thing."

This means that for all of your old version 1.2 keys, you'll have to:

1. Generate a new version 2.0.0 key.
2. For all of the ciphertexts encrypted under the old key:
    1. Decrypt the ciphertext using the old version 1.2 key.
    2. Re-encrypt it using the new version 2.0.0 key.

Use the special `Crypto::legacyDecrypt()` method to decrypt the old ciphertexts
using the old key and then re-encrypt them using `Crypto::encrypt()` with the
new key. Your code will look something like the following. To avoid data loss,
securely back up your keys and data before running your upgrade code.

```php
<?php

// ...

$legacy_ciphertext = // ... get the ciphertext you want to upgrade ...
    $legacy_key = // ... get the key to decrypt this ciphertext ...

// Generate the new key that we'll re-encrypt the ciphertext with.
    $new_key = Key::createNewRandomKey();
    // ... save it somewhere ...

// Decrypt it.
    try {
        $plaintext = Crypto::legacyDecrypt($legacy_ciphertext, $legacy_key);
    } catch (Defuse\Crypto\Exception\WrongKeyOrModifiedCiphertextException $ex)
    {
        // ... TODO: handle this case appropriately ...
    }

// Re-encrypt it.
    $new_ciphertext = Crypto::encrypt($plaintext, $new_key);

// ... replace the old $legacy_ciphertext with the new $new_ciphertext

// ...
```
