I am encrypting a string in objective-c and also encrypting the same string in Java using AES and am seeing some strange issues. The first part of the result matches up to a certain point but then it is different, hence when i go to decode the result from Java onto the iPhone it cant decrypt it.

I am using a source string of "Now then and what is this nonsense all about. Do you know?" Using a key of "1234567890123456"

The objective-c code to encrypt is the following: NOTE: it is a NSData category so assume that the method is called on an NSData object so 'self' contains the byte data to encrypt.

   - (NSData *)AESEncryptWithKey:(NSString *)key {
 char keyPtr[kCCKeySizeAES128+1]; // room for terminator (unused)
 bzero(keyPtr, sizeof(keyPtr)); // fill with zeroes (for padding)

 // fetch key data
 [key getCString:keyPtr maxLength:sizeof(keyPtr) encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];

 NSUInteger dataLength = [self length];

 //See the doc: For block ciphers, the output size will always be less than or 
 //equal to the input size plus the size of one block.
 //That's why we need to add the size of one block here
 size_t bufferSize = dataLength + kCCBlockSizeAES128;
 void *buffer = malloc(bufferSize);

 size_t numBytesEncrypted = 0;
 CCCryptorStatus cryptStatus = CCCrypt(kCCEncrypt, kCCAlgorithmAES128, kCCOptionPKCS7Padding,
            keyPtr, kCCKeySizeAES128,
            NULL /* initialization vector (optional) */,
            [self bytes], dataLength, /* input */
            buffer, bufferSize, /* output */
            &numBytesEncrypted);
 if (cryptStatus == kCCSuccess) {
  //the returned NSData takes ownership of the buffer and will free it on deallocation
  return [NSData dataWithBytesNoCopy:buffer length:numBytesEncrypted];
 }

 free(buffer); //free the buffer;
 return nil;
}

And the java encryption code is...

public byte[] encryptData(byte[] data, String key) {
    byte[] encrypted = null;
