gnutls_cipher_encrypt3(3) gnutls gnutls_cipher_encrypt3(3)
NAME
gnutls_cipher_encrypt3 - API function
SYNOPSIS
#include <gnutls/crypto.h>
gnutls_cipher_encrypt3(3) handle, const void * ptext,
size_t ptext_len, void * ctext, size_t * ctext_len, unsigned flags);
ARGUMENTS
gnutls_cipher_hd_t handle
is a gnutls_cipher_hd_t type
const void * ptext
the data to encrypt
size_t ptext_len
the length of data to encrypt
void * ctext
the encrypted data
size_t * ctext_len
the length of encrypted data (initially must hold the maximum
available size)
unsigned flags
flags for padding
DESCRIPTION
This function will encrypt the given data using the algorithm specified
by the context. For block ciphers, ptext_len is typically a multiple of
the block size. If not, the caller can instruct the function to pad the
last block according to flags . Currently, the only available padding
scheme is GNUTLS_CIPHER_PADDING_PKCS7.
If ctext is not NULL, it must hold enough space to store resulting
cipher text. To check the required size, this function can be called with
ctext set to NULL. Then ctext_len will be updated without performing
actual encryption.
RETURNS
Zero or a negative error code on error.

3.7.7
