C++ blowfish works with fewer letters,but C# blowfish doesn't

问题

a C++ blowfish supports encrypting a block with less than < 8 letters,while .NET doesn't.Why?

-->C# NET Blowfish<-- -->C++ Blowfish<--

In both C++ and C# applications,I encrypt the following array

    byte response[6] = 
    {
        0x00, 0x80, 0x01, 0x61, 0x05, 0x06
    };

In both C++ and C# applications,I call the Encrypt function with same parameters.

C++
Blowfish.Encrypt((LPBYTE)responce + 2,(LPBYTE)responce + 2, 4);

C#
Blowfish.Encrypt(responce, 2, responce, 2, responce.Length - 2);

However,In C++ I get the data encrypted,but not in C#.

Line 45,47 and 49 in C# NET Blowfish are the problematic lines,after the calculation at line 45 - the result becomes 0. line 47 becomes 2 + 0 = 2 and line 49 2 is not less than 2,so there's no loop.

There's some padding in C++ blowfish,but I get lost when I try to understand it.

My problem is that in C#, the padding must be exactly the same as in C++,so I get a valid answer.I can't use random padding and then remove the useless bytes after decryption,because the server I send the encrypted array is not mine.

Could you point me to what padding is used in the C++ blowfish and how it should be implemented in C# NET.

//Note I need not send this packet multiple times,only one time.

Thanks in advance!

The code you pastebinned (not recommended for SO by the way, as your paste will be removed if noone reads it in a while, thereby leaving this question broken) says in its header comment:

/// Note that the number of bytes must be adjusted to the block size of the algorithm.

(lines 3 and 4). So it seems to be behaving to spec, if it ignores your undersized data.

The C++ code seems to be padding with null bytes, the comment says:

// pad end of data with null bytes to complete encryption

It would be helpful to see the C++ function GetOutputLength(), to see how it handles undersized inputs. I guess it rounds upwards, but it would be nice to verify.
