FBB::CryptBuf(3bobcat)                Base class for DecryptBuf and EncryptBuf



NAME
       FBB::CryptBuf - std::streambuf derived base class for DecryptBuf and
       EncryptBuf

SYNOPSIS
       #include <bobcat/cryptbuf>
       Linking option: -lbobcat -lcrypto

DESCRIPTION
       This class is deprecated and will be removed from Bobcat in a future
       release. It inherits from FBB::EoiBuf. Classes using CryptBuf may use
       EoiBuf instead. CryptBuf's member EVP_CIPHER const *md() can be
       implemented as follows:

           #include <openssl/evp.h>

           EVP_CIPHER const *md(char const *cipherName)
           {
               return EVP_CIPHER_fetch(0, cipherName, 0);
           }



NAMESPACE
       FBB
       All constructors, members, operators and manipulators, mentioned in
       this man-page, are defined in the namespace FBB.

INHERITS FROM
       EoiBuf (and thus from: std::streambuf)

PROTECTED CONSTRUCTOR
       Analogously to std::streambuf only a protected constructor is
       available.

       o      CryptBuf(char const *type, size_t bufSize):
              The type is a null-terminated byte string specifying the
              de/encryption method. E.g., aes-128-cbc. For an overview see the
              encryptbuf(3bobcat) man-page. The bufSize parameter defines the
              initial size of the internally used buffer (defined by EoiBuf).


       Copy and move constructors (and assignment operators) are not
       available.

PROTECTED MEMBER FUNCTION
       All members of std:streambuf and EoiBuf are available, as FBB::CryptBuf
       inherits from these classes.

       o      EVP_CIPHER const *md() const:
              A pointer to the cipher information is returned.
