NAME

       shishi_encrypt_etype - API function

SYNOPSIS

       #include <shishi.h>

       int shishi_encrypt_etype(Shishi * handle, Shishi_key * key, int keyusage, int32_t etype, const char * in,
       size_t inlen, char ** out, size_t * outlen);

ARGUMENTS

       Shishi * handle
                   shishi handle as allocated by shishi_init().

       Shishi_key * key
                   key to encrypt with.

       int keyusage
                   integer specifying what this key is encrypting.

       int32_t etype
                   integer specifying what cipher to use.

       const char * in
                   input array with data to encrypt.

       size_t inlen
                   size of input array with data to encrypt.

       char ** out output array with newly allocated encrypted data.

       size_t * outlen
                   output variable with size of newly allocated output array.

DESCRIPTION

       Encrypts  data  as per encryption method using specified initialization vector and key.  The key actually
       used is derived using the key usage.  If key usage is 0, no key derivation is used.  The OUT buffer  must
       be  deallocated  by the caller.  The default IV is used, see shishi_encrypt_iv_etype if you need to alter
       it. The next IV is lost, see shishi_encrypt_ivupdate_etype if you need it.

       Note that DECRYPT(ENCRYPT(data)) does not necessarily yield data exactly.  Some encryption types add  pad
       to  make  the  data  fit  into  the  block size of the encryption algorithm.  Furthermore, the pad is not
       guaranteed to look in any special way, although existing implementations often pad with  the  zero  byte.
       This  means  that  you  may  have  to  "frame" data, so it is possible to infer the original length after
       decryption.  Compare ASN.1 DER which contains such information.

RETURN VALUE

       Returns SHISHI_OK iff successful.
