Detailed Description

CodecFactory for creating and configuring OpenSslCodecs.

To configure creted ciphers, set the type, md, and aalt.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

OpenSslCodecFactory ( )

Standard constructor.

~OpenSslCodecFactory ( )

Standard destructor.

virtual Codec* New ( util::Status * status ) [virtual]

Constructs and configures a new codec instance.

Parameters:

[out] status ok or reason for failure.

void set_chunk_size ( int chunk_size ) [inline]

Sets the chunk size to use when encoding/decoding.

Parameters:

[in] chunk_size Must be > 0 and should be a multiple of the cipher block size.

There is probably no need for changing this, but helps testing.

void set_cipher_type ( const EVP_CIPHER * type ) [inline]

Sets the cipher_type for new codecs.

This interface does not currently provide access to EVP_CIPHER_CTX_ctrl so RC5 and RC2 might not be viable options without further enhacement.

Parameters:

[in] type The OpenSsl cipher type.

void set_md ( EVP_MD * md ) [inline]

Sets the message digest algorithm for new codecs.

Parameters:

[in] md The OpenSsl message digest algorithm.

void set_salt ( const StringPiece & data ) [inline]

Sets the salt value to configure the algorithms with.

Parameters:

[in] data The salt value to use should be exactly 8 bytes.

util::Status SetPassphrase ( const StringPiece & passphrase )

Computes the key and initialization vector from a passphrase.

Parameters:

[in] passphrase The passphrase to use.
