<h2 id="author">Symmetric en- and decryption<br/>(libbobcat-dev_4.08.02-x.tar.gz)</h2>
<h2 id="date">2005-2017</h2>
<p>
<h2 >NAME</h2>FBB::ISymCryptStream - Istream performing symmetric encryption
<p>
<h2 >SYNOPSIS</h2>
<strong >#include <bobcat/isymcryptstream></strong><br/>
Linking option: <em >-lbobcat -lcrypto</em>
<p>
<h2 >DESCRIPTION</h2>
<strong >FBB::ISymCryptStream</strong> objects may be used to encrypt or decrypt
information that is available on a separate <em >std::istream</em>.
<p>
The <em >class ISymCryptStream</em> is a class template, using a
<em >FBB::CryptType</em> template non-type parameter. Objects of the class
<em >FBB::ISymCryptStream<FBB::ENCRYPT></em> encrypt the information they receive,
objects of the class <em >FBB::ISymCryptStream<FBB::DECRYPT></em> decrypt the
information they receive.
<p>
All symmetric encryption methods defined by the OpenSSL library that can
be selected by name may be used in combination with <em >EncryptBuf</em> objects. To
select a particular encryption method an identifier is passed to the
constructor. E.g., <em >"aes-128-cbc"</em> indicating the AES (Rijndael) method,
using 128 bit sized keys and blocks using `cbc' mode (see below for an
explanation).
<p>
Refer to the <strong >isymcryptstreambuf</strong>(3bobcat) man-page for a description of
available encryption methods.
<p>
<h2 >NAMESPACE</h2>
<strong >FBB</strong><br/>
All constructors, members, operators and manipulators, mentioned in this
man-page, are defined in the namespace <strong >FBB</strong>.
<p>
<h2 >INHERITS FROM</h2>
<strong >FBB::ISymCryptStreambuf</strong> (private), <br/>
<strong >std::istream</strong>
<p>
<h2 >CONSTRUCTOR</h2>
<ul>
<li> <strong >ISymCryptStream<CryptType>(
std::istream &in, char const *type,
std::string const &key, std::string const &iv,
size_t bufSize = 100, size_t filterBufSize = 1000,
ENGINE *engine = 0)</strong>:<br/>
This constructor initializes a <em >std::istream</em> providing it with an
<em >FBB::ISymCryptStreambuf</em> stream buffer. The <em >ISymCryptStreambuf</em>'s
constructor receives all arguments that are passed to this constructor.
<p>
- <em >ISymCryptStream<ENCRYPT></em> objects perform encryption;<br/>
<em >ISymCryptStream<DECRYPT></em> objects perform decryption;<br/>
- <em >ISymCryptStream<CryptType></em> objects obtain the bytes to encrypt
or decrypt from <em >std::istream &in</em>;<br/>
- The encryption method to use is specified by the <em >type</em>
parameter. E.g., <em >"bf-cbc"</em> selects the Blowfish Cipher Block Chaining
method;<br/>
- The symmetric key to use is specified by the <em >key</em> parameter;<br/>
- The initialization vector is specified by the <em >iv</em> parameter;<br/>
- The <em >FBB::ISymCryptStreambuf</em> internally used buffer will contain
<em >bufSize</em> characters. The default value is the smallest value that is
used. When a smaller <em >bufSize</em> value is specified, the default value is
used;<br/>
- The internally used <em >IFilterStreambuf</em> is initialized with a buffer of
size <em >filterBufSize</em>, using a lower bound of 100;<br/>
- The parameter <em >ENGINE</em> can be used to specify a hardware
acceleration engine, as supported by the used encryption/decryption
method. Its default argument value indicates that no hardware acceleration is
available.
</ul>
<p>
<h2 >INHERITED MEMBERS</h2>
<p>
Since the class uses public derivation from <strong >std::istream</strong>, all members
of this class can be used.
<p>
<h2 >EXAMPLE</h2>
<pre >
#include "../isymcryptstream"
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
using namespace FBB;
int main()
{
ISymCryptStream<ENCRYPT> encryptor(cin, "bf-cbc",
"1234567890", "1234567890");
ISymCryptStream<DECRYPT> decryptor(encryptor, "bf-cbc",
"1234567890", "1234567890");
cout << decryptor.rdbuf();
}
</pre>

<p>
<h2 >BUGS</h2>
<p>
Sep/Oct 2013: due to a change in library handling by the linker
(cf. <a href="http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/UnderstandingDSOLinkChange">http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/UnderstandingDSOLinkChange</a> and
<a href="https://wiki.debian.org/ToolChain/DSOLinking">https://wiki.debian.org/ToolChain/DSOLinking</a>) libraries that are
indirectly required are no longer automatically linked to your program. With
<strong >BigInt</strong> this is <em >libcrypto</em>, which requires programs to link to both
<em >bobcat</em> and <em >crypto</em>.
