Struct win_crypto_ng::symmetric::SymmetricAlgorithm

pub struct SymmetricAlgorithm { /* private fields */ }

Symmetric algorithm

Implementations

impl SymmetricAlgorithm

pub fn open( id: SymmetricAlgorithmId, chaining_mode: ChainingMode ) -> Result<Self>

Open a symmetric algorithm provider

Examples

let algo = SymmetricAlgorithm::open(SymmetricAlgorithmId::Aes, ChainingMode::Cbc);

assert!(algo.is_ok());

pub fn chaining_mode(&self) -> ChainingMode

Returns the chaining mode of the algorithm.

Examples

let algo = SymmetricAlgorithm::open(SymmetricAlgorithmId::Aes, ChainingMode::Cbc).unwrap();
let chaining_mode = algo.chaining_mode();

assert_eq!(ChainingMode::Cbc, chaining_mode);

pub fn valid_key_sizes(&self) -> Result<Vec<usize>>

Returns a list of all the valid key sizes for an algorithm.

The key sizes are defined in bits.

Examples

let algo = SymmetricAlgorithm::open(SymmetricAlgorithmId::Aes, ChainingMode::Cbc).unwrap();
let valid_key_sizes = algo.valid_key_sizes().unwrap();

assert_eq!([128, 192, 256], valid_key_sizes.as_slice());

pub fn new_key(&self, secret: &[u8]) -> Result<SymmetricAlgorithmKey>

Creates a new key from the algorithm

The secret value is the shared-secret between the two parties. For example, it may be a hash of a password or some other reproducible data. The size of the secret must fit with one of the valid key sizes (see valid_key_sizes).
