gnutls_crypto_cipher_register(3)

gnutls_crypto_cipher_register3

Register a cipher algorithm

Usage

#include <gnutls/gnutls.h>

int gnutls_crypto_cipher_register(gnutls_cipher_algorithm_t algorithm, int priority, gnutls_crypto_cipher_st* s);

Arguments

gnutls_cipher_algorithm_t algorithm

is the gnutls algorithm identifier

int priority

is the priority of the algorithm

gnutls_crypto_cipher_st* s

is a structure holding new cipher's data

Overview

This function will register a cipher algorithm to be used by gnutls. Any algorithm registered will override the included algorithms and by convention kernel implemented algorithms have priority of 90. The algorithm with the lowest priority will be used by gnutls.

This function should be called before gnutls_global_init().

Returns

GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS on success, otherwise an error.
